Patent number: 10705675Abstract: Systems and methods for triggering generation of an alert for delivery to a remote device are disclosed herein. The system can include memory having: a user profile database; and a content library database. The system can include a recipient user device having: a network interface; and a recipient I/O subsystem; and the system can include a supervisor device having: a network interface; and a supervisor I/O subsystem. The system can include a content management server that can: direct the generation of a placement interface in the graphical user interface by the recipient I/O subsystem; direct the generation of a presentation interface; direct the generation of a coupling interface at each of the recipient user device and the supervisor user device; and generate and send an alert to the recipient user device and the supervisor device.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2019Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: PEARSON EDUCATION, INC.Inventors: Alexander W. Lowrie, Raman Huziy, Terre M. Passero

Publication number: 20190385469Abstract: Systems, device configurations, and processes for integrating a job profile describing an occupation into a talent management system (TMS) by determining proficiency requirements from job profile data are used to develop validated scores for competency in one or more job skills. The resulting integrated job profiles may be included as a component of TMS job offerings related to the occupation. The systems and methods evaluate parameters of the job profile using a predetermined scoring framework. Particular implementations evaluate English language proficiency in one or more frameworks. A job profile describes the occupation in the form of tasks to be completed by an employee. The systems and methods associate the tasks with scoring parameters in the framework, and calculate an overall score for English proficiency from the collection of scores associated with the tasks.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2019Publication date: December 19, 2019Inventors: Margo Erin GORDON, Alexander W. LOWRIE, Michael John MAYOR, Lindsay Noelle OISHI, Joseph John WORACHEK

Patent number: 10050673Abstract: Systems and methods for triggering generation of an alert for delivery to a remote device are disclosed herein. The system can include memory having: a user profile database; and a content library database. The system can include a recipient user device and a supervisor device. The system can include a content management server that can: receive an electrical signal from the recipient user device, which electrical signal includes a request for initiation of a delivery sequence; trigger an incrementing timer based on receipt of the electrical signal; sequentially deliver the set of delivery data packets; automatically send a proposed time for communicatively coupling the recipient user and supervisor devices; and generate and send an alert.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2017Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: PEARSON EDUCATION, INC.Inventors: Alexander W.
