Reimagining the Resume
The what, why and how of learning employment records (LERs) for HR professionals.
Throughout its history, the HR profession has turned to new, innovative tools to overcome obstacles and open new paths to talent. Another such moment is at hand.
The Learning and Employment Record (LER) offers HR professionals a new tool for making skills-based talent strategies deliver for their employers and employees.
By allowing job candidates to present a verifiable and universal digital portrait of their full skills and qualifications, LERs broaden and deepen talent pools and make it easier for HR professionals to match job candidates to an open position’s success factors.
This initiative is made possible through the generous support of a grant from Walmart.
