About

Skill Syllabus

Features
Read full description

Skills Syllabus is designed to combine quantitative skills sections (derived from Course and Learning Labels) with the standard qualitative sections of a standard syllabus from the perspective of a learner (student or worker). The app is designed to show syllabus already created by a practitioner, so a learner should know of a specific course before trying to use the app (a precondition the syllabus was created by a college, university, or company). Though the app includes a few courses to sample the framework and interface of the apps and patented learning labels system.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Skill Syllabus at none against Schemas's 10. Schemas's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 10 months) and iOS requirement (13.0.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
