The typical awakening we know of that changes the symbol from "the red arrow" to "bigger blue circle" is the ABILITY AWAKENING.
That one is available to all classes. (assuming nutaku takes it from the current dmm) Mages, witches and ninjas included.
Skill awakening is when a units ALREADY awakened and has 5/5 or 10/10 in other words maxed skill. Then you get change their skill to do something that is usually better. normal dmg -> true dmg or just something totally whacky. But for now, you can ignore skill awakening. Its something you want to put resources in only after awakening most of your units, although some skill awakenings are pretty meh.
