Personnel Decisions International Teams with Oracle to Offer Employee Development Planning Tools with Oracle HRMS
PDI DevelopMentor eAdvisor, an employee self-service application, provides easy access to proven employee development and coaching advice for individuals at all levels in an organization. Oracle HRMS allows organizations to drive workforce optimization through the implementation of Internet-enabled human resources business practices. The practiced and proven standard competencies in the PDI Strategic Performance Model complement the Oracle HRMS offering. Clients with specific requirements can work with Oracle and PDI to develop customized solutions.
"Our customers are looking for a single application to address both their administrative and employee development needs," said Joel Summers, senior vice president of human resource development for Oracle. "By working together, Oracle and PDI will be able to deliver powerful human resources and training solutions to our customers. The PDI employee development system nicely complements Oracle HRMS, which allows companies to attract, retain and develop key skills and knowledge on a global basis."
According to Susan Gebelein, Ph.D., executive vice president for PDI, "In today's competitive workplace, human resources professionals are facing more challenges than ever in hiring and retaining employees. Organizations are looking to offset some of that burden integrating a resource that links employee development and coaching tools with their performance management systems and other human resources applications."
On employee skill development, Gebelein adds, "Savvy employers know that many of their future human assets are current employees that need to develop new, or cultivate existing skills to advance. Through our online applications, we can provide organizations easy access to tools that will help develop those skills for employees at any level, anytime, anywhere."
Through this alliance, DevelopMentor eAdvisor software will be sold by PDI on a site license basis. A limited demo is available from the PDI corporate Web site, or a full product demo is available by contacting PDI directly at 800-633-4410.
