§ The result
SEEK leads eSkill on all 7 criteria.
SEEK, filed under Screening, comes out 13 points above eSkill, filed under Assessment: 54 against 41 under rubric v1.0. SEEK takes all 7 criteria and eSkill none of them; the nearest contest is FRIA Support, eSkill 30 to SEEK 32. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (eSkill 48, SEEK 70, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage SEEK holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -12.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 12.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -13 beside that -12.3.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
