IDC PeerScape: Modernization Practices for Talent and Learning Management Systems
This IDC PeerScape looks at how some organizations have developed strategies and practices that achieve top results with TMS and LMS.The benefits of talent management and learning management systems depend on the quality and analysis of data collected by those systems and the willingness of employees to engage with them, says David Weldon, adjunct research advisor with IDC's IT Executive Programs (IEP). When used effectively, modernized TMS and LMS will better align worker performance with organizational goals, create opportunities for career growth and advancement, ensure that training is an ongoing investment, increase retention rates, and reduce turnover.
