Webinar: The Connection Between Skills
and Employee Experience (Aug 16th, Virtual)
|
|
One of the key positive aspects of employee experience is the opportunity to learn and grow. But how does an organization decide how to provide those opportunities without knowing what skills employees currently possess and which are needed for the next improvement?
Skills assessments and skills inventories are becoming increasingly important. Dynamic, self-organizing teams, organizational agility, and the velocity of change make a skills inventory increasingly important.
What you’ll learn
- What employee experience is, and why it’s important now
- How a skills framework fits into the employee experience
- Why SFIA (Skills Framework for the Information Age) provides a solid basis for skills assessment and inventory
