As organizations begin to further embrace the concept of opportunity and talent marketplaces, providers have been investing heavily in creating and expanding solutions that address this trend. Learning and talent technologies can play a valuable role in this marketplace.
For the first time, technology capabilities have outpaced HR’s ability to adopt new tools, solutions, and approaches. With such rapid technological advancements, it is no longer enough for organizations to focus solely on the HCM cloud to support the HR evolution.
A broad array of technology categories has taken shape in the learning market with exciting features to support workforce development outcomes and provide a human-centered workforce experience. As organizations build the architecture for their ecosystems, it is important to consider the role that these platforms can play in providing the right workforce (and partner/customer) experience, the capabilities they provide, and specific use cases in which other platform types (e.g., sales enablement) come into the mix.
While the number of platforms continues to grow exponentially, organizations need the right mix of technology to address their learning, skilling and talent needs in the accelerated future of work. NIIT’s talent and technology services help organizations build the technology and data ecosystem to help fuel their organization’s current and future talent and skill goals.
The best place to start when organizations have a plethora of technology platforms is an analysis of a company’s current learning & skills technology infrastructure. Through a current state gap analysis, we make recommendations to optimize tools, add new, upgrade or sunset technologies to better serve the organization’s needs – and integrate with HR & business systems to improve the overall experience. The key outcome of this step is a high-level business case and transformation plan.
The next step is a detailed and actionable plan for making recommended learning technology changes: new tools, upgrades, and sunsets. This includes the investment, a cost/benefit analysis, and an implementation plan.
Once the technology is rolled out and implemented, we also make recommendations and plans for user adoption to maximize the investment in technology. One of the key components of this step is to help end users understand the value of the technology so that they can adopt it in their ways of working through improved performance and productivity.
