 Development plans

Purpose

You use this component to map general and individual personnel development plans in your system. You can use these development plans to plan and manage short-term and long-term personnel development measures. The personnel development measures that you can depict by means of development plans include:

  • Training programs (plans for apprenticeships, trainee programs, and so on)

  • Further education and training (training courses, workshops, and so on)

  • On-the-job training, job rotation, and so on

  • Individual development plans

Features

  • In the development plan catalog you can create and manage general development plans , which you can use as templates and points of reference for measures within individual development plans . Each development plan contains a series of development measures (items) and information on the sequence in which they should be passed through, how long they last, and so on. You can structure your catalog by creating development plan groups which contain development plans that are related in some way.

  • You can create an individual development plan for every employee and update this plan continually. In this way, you can represent the entire training history of the employee in question. You can take items from development plans in the catalog and tailor them to individual employees. You can also select specific items individually.

  • You can store the following information on every item and every general development plan within an individual development plan:

  • Status (to monitor progress)

  • Notes

  • Validity period

You can automate status management for items to a certain extent.

You can use the status of an item to trigger further processing modules (to temporarily transfer an employee to a position automatically, for example).

  • Once a person has passed through a development plan successfully, any new qualifications gained can be assigned to this person’s profile.

  • A development plan history is available to help you find the development plans that are person has been, is, or will be involved in.
