Last week I mentioned . But here’s something new—a big bonus to earn at least 80,000 Marriott Points.
Until a few days ago, the bonus was 50,000 points, so this is basically a 60% bonus for doing nothing different. Of course, Marriott isn’t just being generous here. They want to compete with other offers! But since the requirements to earn the points haven’t changed, there’s not really any downside for you.

It seems you're missing the Skill.cs source file which should contain the Skill class. If you are positive it exists, maybe it is located in another name space which you have to include to your using statements.
The error means that it understands you're trying to access a type (the Skill class) but it can't be found in the project, so it doesn't know what to do with it.
I ran into this when I had a forms app and a dll app in a solution. The forms app was using framework 3.5 and the dll app was using framework 4.5. After I set them both to the same framework the issue disappeared.
Ran into this problem as well. In my case, I was trying to use C# to access a Javascript class. This isn't possible. (Unity 3.5)
