Characters in EVE do not gain "experience" or "level up" through normal play. Instead, characters passively accumulate skill points (SP) which represent progress toward learning [[Skills and Learning|skills]. Characters accumulate skill points even when you are not logged in, so skill progress in EVE is almost entirely determined by a character's age. | Characters in EVE do not gain "experience" or "level up" through normal play.

Skill progress is handled by populating the Training Queue which, as its name suggests, allows you to set a number of skills to train in sequence. Upon reaching the requisite number of skill points, that skill will advance to the next level and your character will receive the benefits of the new level. Only one skill can be trained at a time, so players will need to plan ahead to ensure that they train the correct skills for what they want to accomplish in EVE. | Skill progress is handled by populating the Training Queue which, as its name suggests, allows you to set a number of skills to train in sequence.
