Knowledge and know-how have always been prerequisites for achieving a competitive advantage over others. The speed and the method in which these are acquired are also of significance. Companies, which therefore facilitate knowledge availability and transfer across their business, in other words to their employees, partners, suppliers and even customers, can improve not only their overall performance but also their standing in the marketplace.
Traditional educational institutions with their focus on delivering accreditable learning programs on a wide range of subjects to an unrelated audience are unsuitable to meet business-related learning requirements. Their approach is too broad, theoretical and rigid. Instead so-called corporate universities, which can foster individual and organizational learning in line with business strategies and objectives, are more appropriate.
Corporate universities can come in a variety of forms. They can have a campus, be completely virtual or a mix of both. Whatever their form, their primary goal is to offer job and company-related training programs tailored to individual, departmental and business needs. Valuable contributors to this goal are e-learning solutions, which can enable companies to offer and manage more blended training programs.
One such solution is the Human Performance Suite from Comartis. Modular in design and highly configurable, it can quickly and cost efficiently deliver tailored environments to meet any corporate university learning need. At its core is a centralized system, which allows for:
The management of blended learning programs to deliver comprehensive learning experiences;
The central collection for all educational content and data;
The synchronized updating of content in order to immediately react to any new company requirement;
The rapid deployment of individualized training to geographically dispersed individuals;
The continuous measurement and monitoring of individual employee training progress and proficiency to measure knowledge retention, identity gaps and provide instant feedback;
The automation and recording of workflow processes to ensure the systematic adherence to procedures and to minimize potential errors and inconsistencies; and
The generation of tailored performance reports to verify training effectiveness and demonstrate its impact on sales and business metrics.
In summary, Comartis’ Human Performance Suite can help a company align its people to its organizational goals and manage the efficient distribution of knowledge and development of skills.
