Training
and Development
as a competitive
strategy
Back

Training and development
is a key competitive
strategy for companies
wanting to optimise
their human and
intellectual capital.
Company staff may
excel at their jobs
right now, but the
speed at which knowledge
and information
is circulated today
may cause their
expertise to rapidly
become perishable
and a successful
organisation may
become less competitive
almost overnight.
To stay ahead of
competitors, companies
need to obtain,
manage and disperse
knowledge quickly
throughout their
organisations. The
Internet provides
the most efficient
and effective method
for distributing
knowledge rapidly.
Technology-based
training, fuelled
by the increasing
popularity of e-Learning,
is growing rapidly
because of the need
for reduced cost
of delivery, the
need to generate
better training
solutions and a
broader range of
content for a more
dispersed workforce.
The PathFinder™ range
of web enabled products
has been developed
to support organisations
who have adopted
a strategic view
of learning and
development. The
system offers businesses
the capacity and
broad reach of the
web, combined with
desk top functionality
and ease of use
for users. It provides
a clear picture
of the existing
skills and competencies
of the workforce
and manages and
tracks all learning
and development
activity within
an organisation.
Its automation of
necessary though
tedious administration
tasks enables HR
and training resources
to concentrate on
their core responsibilities
and most importantly
provides them with
substantiative data
on the results of
their activities
relative to organisational
goals.
PathFinder
also provides a
number of additional
benefits to organisations
including cost savings,
expediency and compliance
with industry and
government training
standards. Its secure
central data repository
is easily interrogated
- providing up to
date accurate “people” information
essential for strategic
decision making
on workforce related
issues. Back
