imc Learning Analytics needs identified by target groups

Use Cases: Compliance -, Training- and Skill Management

imc Learning Analytics addresses core needs for the target groups in the context of three covered core use case scenarios.

Compliance Management

imc Learning Analytics allows management of mandatory training with a personal due date of your learners. Based on a corresponding dashboard and several reports the compliance status can be monitored and improved with a topic or person driven focus. Whether L&D or team managers wants to track compliance status of the staff towards e.g., first aid or firefighter requirements per region or location or the IT security officer needs to ensure data protection compliance of the overall company, the compliance analysis provides full transparency on the focused compliances status.

Thereby imc Learning Analytics answers the most important compliance related questions and provides the direct possibility to act to the better. KPIs are provided with the general pattern to initiate action where action is needed.

In the context of compliance management, action is needed when a course or learning path has a personal due date for the user, but the user has no access to the syllabus to complete the training (e.g., as he has been failed or cancelled) or the due date is approaching, and the learner has not yet completed the training.

Identifying the need for action early enough before the due date lowers the risk of having overdue learners. If reasons applied that learners got overdue, imc Learning Analytics directly alerts for action regarding those users.

Compliance officers or persons responsible for certain mandatory training topics (e.g., first aid) can drill down to the single learner or course and get the detailed course progress of the overdue learner and insights which help to get the learner back on track, e.g., by finding that a repeatedly failed test or missing prerequisite caused the learner to get stuck. Seeing the cause allows action to the better, so that it can be ensured that the learner is supported to pass the test or fulfil the prerequisites to proceed.

Skill Management

Using imc Skill and Competency Management within imc Learning Suite (subject to an extra needed license) addresses one of the core problems of organisations with distributed learning approaches in different regions or lines of businesses. Skill put a layer above training which can be analysed independent from the learning method used for skill enablement. Whether the skill is achieved by a learning path or course, imc Learning Analytics always includes the overall skill status of all training executed and tracked in imc Learning Suite.

This enables lines of business managers to ensure a global training initiative, puts business unit leads in the focus and provides team leads with a detail monitoring option of the skill development of the workforce reporting to them. All parties share their views as a basis of communication about the skills development status and actions needed.

Skill analysis simply monitors skill development following a traffic light approach.

  • Green: Skill is acquired and up to date

  • Yellow: Skill has been addressed by learning path or course assignment, but the learner has not yet started or completed the training

  • Red: Skill gaps have been identified but no learning path or course for skill acquisition has yet been assigned to the learner.

Following this simple pattern reporting users can easily act to the better by facilitating users with yellow status and ensure training setup and assign for users with red status. The skill status trend provides direct insights for any action taken.
