I'd imagine what they want is just a summary of your skills. Write a couple of paragraphs explaining what your strong points are, maybe some examples of training and/or experience you have, and that sort of thing. Basically, something that goes a little further than just a bullet-list.

Write down your achievement and accomplishment about your experience and past jobs

I'm probably a bit late.

But a skills summary is just a list of the technologies you've used and experienced in.

eg

windows xp
sql 2003
IIS

Quite often recruiters are too lazy to look through your CV and just want to see what you have experience in.

You could probably put in your level of understanding of these skills and any certs you have on this page as well.
