MyKnowledgeMap shows online talent management at 2007 HR Software Show

PRLog (Press Release) – May 23, 2007 – Capability Matrix, a new means of making training more cost efficient and productive, is being launched at London's HR Software Show (Olympia Conference Centre, 20-21 June 2007) by learning management specialist, MyKnowledgeMap (MKM). MKM’s Capability Matrix - www.capabilitymatrix.com  - is a customisable capability and skills management system that lets employees assess their skills and skills gaps, enabling employers to pinpoint support to people and departments in most need.

Its flexibility allows users to create, manage and deliver custom skills gap assessments to fit an organisation’s development strategy and culture.

Capability Matrix can create capability and training needs assessments based on nationally recognised competency maps (National Occupational Standards). It enables the production of customisable assessments and targets set by job-role or team.

The system can deliver assessments and produce individual capability reports as well as in-depth organisational reports identifying what capabilities are available and where they are concentrated, and where should training be targeted. It can also scope in team or job functions for detailed views of capabilities and training needs.

Available for customer corporate intranet use or as a secure hosted service on the web, Capability Matrix can be custom developed with competencies and capabilities specific to user organisation/industry needs.

Alternatively, it is available 'off-the-shelf' and pre-loaded with a range of skills sets including sales, ICT, marketing, communications and more.

Capability Matrix launches this June following successful 2006 trials with the NHS, British Council, West Lothian Council, and a consortium of UK retail bodies.

"Effective targeting is one of the core challenges of training within the organisation," says MKM managing director Rob Arntsen. "The Capability Matrix system enables the delivery of solutions specific to individual user need, self-empowers users, optimises budget."

MKM is showing on stand A72 at HR Software Show http://www.cipd.co.uk/cande/hrss/default.htm
