  • Publication number: 20190266542
    Abstract: The system for integrating work force management and remedial training is a combination of intelligent application data, graphics and analytic engines along with data and training database information concerning specific individuals and jobs (series of tasks). The system intelligently matches and dispatches individuals to complete jobs based on appropriate skills and competency level. If some skills are known to be deficient, the system can provide quick refreshers or tips sheets to the dispatched individual in a variety of ways. The system applications, engines and databases are updated dynamically as new events occur or as additional information becomes available. The system provides enhanced business data and metrics impacting workforce management and workforce investment.
