Career Development Services: What makes @tlas so useful?

Think of @tlas as a best-in-class career resource center to which all your employees have access, no matter where they are in the world. Using the power of the Internet, @tlas brings over 15 years of cutting-edge employee development theory and practice to your company. @tlas provides tools and resources to support employee development and encourage continuous learning and greater productivity.

@tlas is simple-to-use.

Your company's @tlas site resides on the Internet as a private network -- available from the home, office or on the road--with a regular browser. A salesperson in Singapore or a telecommuter in Tacoma can take advantage of @tlas anytime, anywhere.
If your employees know how to use a web browser--Netscape or Explorer, for instance--they're ready to use @tlas.

@tlas is flexible.

@tlas is flexible and configurable to meet your company's changing needs. In addition to building and configuring your @tlas site, we also monitor it on a daily basis and add content as frequently as each week.

@tlas provides a framework.

Are your employee-development efforts spread throughout your company, with no sense of connectedness and context? Do employees see only chaos?

@tlas provides the framework for all your initiatives. Think of it as a clearinghouse for your established programs, with other meaningful career and learning resources attached.

@tlas fits your employee-development program.

Even if you don't have a formal employee-development program, infrastructure may already exist to support @tlas. Review your benefits package, for instance, for tuition reimbursement, EAP or internships that support development.

Setting up @tlas requires between 40 and 60 direct contact hours with your HR liaison.

The rest of the setup can be completed in 30 to 60 days.

@tlas provides cost-effective access to all employees.

Equal access to employee services and benefits is a huge HR concern. @tlas' private network on the Internet allows all your employees with access to the web to use this service. Our pricing also makes that possible.

@tlas offers access to all your employees for a fixed annual subscription rate. There are no per capita charges. That's not true of many other Internet-based employee development centers.

@tlas' price structure helps you keep your costs down and effectiveness up.

Is your company an "Employer of Choice?"

Good people are hard to find, harder to keep. The Bureau of Labor Statistics confirm an acute shortage of qualified employees by 2006; 151 million jobs, only 141 million workers. In times like these, the term "employer of choice" is a determining factor in attracting and retaining the best.
To enhance these efforts, your company may already have a significant investment in employee development programs, services and benefits. But are they unified? Accessible?
@tlas helps you bring full value to those investments. It helps your employees maximize their career opportunities within your company. It underscores your efforts to become and remain an "employer of choice."
