Skills Optimiser

eLearning Industry Association - "eLearning System of 2009"

Skills Optimiser is an advanced learning management and people capability development system that assists organisations with taking a targeted and analytical approach to the professional development of their people.

Skills Optimiser covers all the functionality you would expect in a world class Learning Management System:

Creation, organisation and management of your Learners, Managers, Trainers and Administrators
Publish and share online training and assessment material
Make the right training available to the right learners at the right time
Manage and record facilitated/class room based training
Extensive reporting on training outcomes

and takes it further by providing a framework to optimise individual performance with a best practice approach to skill and competency analysis, development and management.

Skills Optimiser uses role profiles, skill sets and skills as part of a competency based framework, identifying the key competencies and associated skills that people require in their current role and as part of their broader career development. Skills Optimiser then maps out the training, assessment materials and performance analysis required for each skill.

Built-in training needs analysis functionality supports trainers and managers as they conduct competency reviews. Skills Optimiser provides information about observable behaviours if a skill competency is present and contains links of assigned training, assessment and coaching material for all skills being reviewed. Skills Optimiser automatically informs learners via email when a training needs analysis has been completed and keeps a history of all training needs analyses that have been conducted.

Skills Optimiser also provides detailed reports about learner and team performance which help to identify where skill gaps may exist within an organisation.

Skills Optimiser: Going Beyond a Traditional LMS

The productivity of your people is dependent on the management of your training, so you need a Learning Management System that assists with every stage of people development.

With Skills Optimiser, the latest generation in Learning Management Systems from Salmat Learning and Development Solutions, you can see the effect training solutions have on the performance of your people. Throughout each stage of employment from induction through to promotion, Skills Optimiser provides a comprehensive view of the link between training and performance.

The connection between training and productivity is strong but pinpointing where these areas intersect can be difficult. That is why you need a system that draws a direct line from training to performance, linking on-the-job skills to past, present and future training solutions.
Incorporating an ability, role profile and competency management tool linked directly to role development, you can be sure that your people have the skills and knowledge they need to perform their role effectively. Skills Optimiser highlights the association between training and workplace performance so you can promote what works and change what doesn't work.
By adopting Skills Optimiser you can combine essential elements of Learning Management with Performance Management, ensuring your organisation takes a holistic, effective approach to professional development.

Delivering Results

By adopting Skills Optimiser you can streamline your performance and learning management processes into a single task. By making the link between people performance and training clear, Skills Optimiser helps ensure greater productivity by pinpointing learning solutions that work.

Improve Internal Succession Planning

Skills Optimiser goes beyond a traditional Learning Management Systems (LMS) providing real time data on people performance. This data is invaluable when planning internal succession or charting overall performance. By identifying individuals who contribute to your organisation, you can promote the right people and place the future of your organisation in safe hands.

Save Time and Money

Managing the learning of your people can be time consuming; administration time can be high, course creation can be lengthy and allocating the right training can be difficult. That is why Salmat Learning and Development Solutions have developed Skills Optimiser to streamline learning and performance management.

Reduce Administration Time

Managing the training of learners can be a time intensive process for administrators. Learners have to be created and managed, training needs to be reported and recorded, courses created and published while learners need to be allocated to the right training. Skills Optimiser makes administration easier by acting as a single tool for all your learning and performance management needs. It also records training and assessments, as well as tracking learning development over time.

Speed up Course Creation Time

Creating new courses can consume significant time and resources. Ensuring your trainers and administrators have access to past resources cuts down on course creation time as whole courses or learning materials can be reused.

Skills Optimiser helps you keep track of your backlog of learning materials with an online learning repository. As soon as a course is published it can be shared with other administrators and trainers. With this online library, you can ensure that important training materials are saved and shared.

Allocating the Right Training to the Right People

Skills Optimiser generates a role profile detailing all the skills and knowledge an individual needs to fulfil their role effectively. By tracking the performance of learners against their role profile you can easily identify areas for improvement, ensuring the right training is delivered to the right people, at the right time.

Developing Your People

A skilled individual is a productive individual, that is why the development of skills are, as the name suggests, at the heart of Skills Optimiser.

Skills can be assigned either individually or as a skill set to each group in your organisation. Alternatively, these skills can be deployed through a role profile. This ensures both individual and collective skills are kept at the highest level.

Skills Optimiser and Professional Development

Skills Optimiser ensures your learners move forward professionally through development plans tailored to both groups and individuals. By blending the professional development needs of people with business needs, you will have a motivated, productive workforce with the right skills to contribute to the success of your organisation.

Role Profile

Because every role and individual performing it is different, Skills Optimiser generates tailored role profiles to ensure your people have the skills they need to perform at their best.
A role profile is composed of the skill sets which help an individual perform every facet of their job effectively including core skills, knowledge and compliance requirements.
Skill sets are built around vital areas of an individual's role. Including processes, systems, and compliance requirements Skills Optimiser helps you ensure your people have the right knowledge and skills to work effectively.
