News & Events of DEVELOP

One of the aims of DEVELOP is to apply artificial intelligence (AI) planning techniques to recommend learning opportunities for career development. More specifically, DEVELOP aims to identify potential sequences of learning interventions (e.g. eLearning courses, mentorship, changing teams) that will enable an individual to make progress towards the position(s) to which they aspire. This article presents DEVELOP's approach to make plan recommendations scrutable to the individual, which means the recommendations themselves and the reasons for the recommendations should be understandable to human users.

In our previous articles, we highlighted the benefits of social technologies adoption in the “Enterprise 2.0” era and discussed the potentials that workplace social interactions data has to offer as a result of social technologies. In this article, we look into the benefits of social capital from employee perspective and discuss an integrative model of social capital sources, definitions, measures and values.

This article shares the impressions from the Learning Tech Ireland 2017 conference, disscusses the central topics of Impact Led Innovation, and summarizes experience of the DEVELOP project in Design Thinking and user testing.

Personality assessment is one of the assessment types that employees can complete using the DEVELOP Platform. In this article, we explain how the indirect measurement of behaviour through personality assessment can contribute to gaining insight in an individual’s competency profile.
