# \(Legacy\) Build an Alexa skill model

Build your Alexa-hosted skill on the Alexa developer console. Building a saved Alexa skill model helps you prepare the skill for testing.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1.  Log in to the Alexa developer console with your Amazon developer account.

2.  Select the skill that you want to build.

    **Note:** Selecting a skill navigates you to the Alexa Developer Console.

3.  Click the **Build** tab.

4.  In the Skill builder checklist, click **Build Model**.

    **Note:** Building the model takes a few minutes.

    The build successful message appears and you can test the sample utterances while the build is being trained.
