There exist many different extra “trainings” online in my employee portal that I can take to improve my skills at work. For example, there are presentations on leadership, systems languages, and other skills that would aid us in, not only our job performance, but also our career development/overall skill set. These trainings are usually accompanied by evaluations that test our knowledge and we are awarded with “badges” that we can link to our LinkedIn accounts. In addition to trainings, there are regular seminars that we are able to attend during workdays – I do not know about you but, I would love to get paid to learn! The last session had the theme of HIPAA in which there were presentations on how to best protect PHI, HIPAA’s importance, and best practices to protect PHI within a database (given by a systems analyst). These examples of career development activities aim to give employees some competitive edge against their peers who may be encouraged to do so also. Thus, sharpening the skills of the organization’s workforce as a whole.  Akon Udoroh What is the advantage of using job descriptions, job specifications, and job evaluations?The advantages of using job descriptions for the employer is that they provide clear requirements and expectations of the position.
