Development Planning, Learning Management & Regulatory Compliance

What's it about?

Do your employees have the tools they need to go from meeting their goals to exceeding their goals?  Have you shown them the growth opportunities ahead?  Are you developing the skilled workforce you will need for future success? How do employees access learning and development activities?  How do you manage all the learning resources: courses, instructors, facilities, online resources? And how do you prove to regulators that your workforce is in compliance?

How's it done?

First, over the past two decades, Organization Metrics has come to see that development, in its many forms, must be targeted and aligned to goals to be truly effective.  Employees and managers need tools to connect job experiences, formal training, coaching and mentoring to both short and long-term goals.  If you are not clearly articulating the development-to-goal connection how can you be sure you are getting the best return on your development budget?   While OMI TMS Development Planning and Performance Management establish the links and needs, our Learning Management System clearly provides the targeted solutions:

• Automates and streamlines many critical learning processes:
  • Establishes learning paths
  • Manages certification and compliance program participation
  • Documents standard operating procedure awareness and use
  • Publishes, registers and deploys blended and multi-mode learning activities and performance support
  • Manages classrooms and instructors
• Improves training compliance to industry standards as well as internal programs
• Integrates to individual development plans and curriculum paths
• Enables full document management, employee notification and workflow integration
• Centralizes record-keeping and management of training programs
• Meets industry compliance requirements (the benchmark code for compliance management software - 21CFR 11 - one of only 7 LMS platforms globally).

What's the return?

Estimates indicate that the average HR development budget allocates up to $1200 per employee per year for training and development.  For a 3000-employee company that misdirects even 10% of its development budget that totals $360,000 wasted - every year.  And that is not to mention the missed opportunity of having people better prepared and engaged to meet their short and long-term goals.   Our Learning Management System is a major tool in the efficiency arena, enabling self service registrations, workflow based management tracking, deployment of e-learning courses and resources, all reducing costs of training associated with travel and administration while increasing the relevance of the solutions themselves.
