ï Strategically aligning individual and division initiatives with senior executive goals;

ï Improving the profitability of an organization through enterprise wide competencies;

ï Managing and increasing the value and ROI of corporate training.

Keith Bowery, Project Manager and Theresa Renfro, Corporate LMS Administrator at Eastman Chemical Company share first-hand knowledge about how this major chemical company used automation to take the work out of training, and significantly improve its ability to meet safety standards and maximize its training investment.

ìOur primary goal was to relieve the workload in the training system, while maintaining or improving safety results, and continuing to meet ongoing training requirementsî, stated Bowery.

To help reach these goals, Eastman selected TEDSí talent management system which offers robust functionality in course completion and certification management. This solution gave Eastman the ability to automate and integrate employeesí roles, tasks and competencies with other data in the learning management system.

Across the site, the implementation of automated training management reduced the total number of annual training hours, ensured the right training was being assigned to the right people, enabled assignment of roles and training to new hires within two days, and placed all training in employeesí automated To Do lists.
