Abstract: Career development processes face three major challenges (1) simplifying steps that require input from multiple users, (2) promoting follow-through with career development plans, and (3) adapting to individual corporate business processes. These issues can be addressed by disabling access to a step if required previous steps have not yet been completed. Additionally, the user can receive a notification over a network when the required previous steps have been completed by a remote user. Follow-through with a career development plan can be promoted by dynamically altering a career development workflow to incorporate the steps of the development plan as they are created. That is, the development plan drives the definition of the career development workflow in which the user is already engaged, helping to monitor and enforce milestones of the development plan.
