Individual Development Plans (IDP) Are Here To Stay

Organizations are made up of individuals working towards a common goal.

Individuals within an organization may share common goals, but chances are, they have goals of their own.

That’s were individual development plans come in.

An individual development plan (IDP) can help employees:

• Improve skills
• Gain new experiences
• Learn about emerging trends and technology
• Explore unique training and development opportunities
• Identify resources to keep their career fresh and exciting

An IDP which is a feature of the new Gyrus LMS, GyrusAim. can help employees:

• Create a list of knowledge, skills, or abilities (KSAs) that they would like to acquire or improve
• Correspond activities for each KSA to help develop in the areas listed above
• Identify specific resources for each activity (i.e.: classes, a mentor, a developmental assignment, etc.)

It is very simple...  employees that can create IDPs are happier and more productive than employees who don’t.

If you are interested in having a happy, motivated workforce, give your people the tools they need to create their own IDP. An LMS like GyrusAim can help.
