We enable your team to self-direct their learning & skill development on the job - freeing up your valuable management time.
One of the biggest drains on managers is time spent supporting employees with on-the-job learning and problem solving. And many employees struggle to even ask for help. We take that away, by providing pre-existing challenges & opportunities for learning relevant to your industry and team - to enable them to learn and grow on the job, their way.
We turn challenges into opportunities. Each problem to solve or skill to learn, is matched with a learning plan - ready to be populated with a range of personalised learning activities, calendared and pre-priced for your approval. We personalise & democratize learning & development, so everyone has the opportunity to grow.
More and more people have diverse learning styles, and want to learn ‘their way’. Companies who invest in self-directed learning and on the job skill-building have been proven to gain critical advantages in a highly competitive marketplace. It increases engagement and means you only pay for the relevant learning resources your team actually needs - lowering overall cost of growth.
Performance reviews are an opportunity to unlock new productivity. By providing your team with a way to easily turn the challenges and development opportunities they’re facing into a personalised learning plan - you are enabling them to demonstrate their ability to grow and progress, independently. Identifying the true stars, from the coasters.
Our reporting dashboard keeps you informed of current issues and opportunities, that might be holding your team back from performing and growing. We offer monthly anonymised insight reports on each team, giving you early indicators of any potentially hidden insights or issues, that need to be addressed to retain & grow your staff.

There are many methods by which people acquire skills.
Generally they are in three categories -
1. On-the-job training via mentoring
2. Pre-designed interal content
3. Accessing external skill building tools and career planning platforms.
The most common ones external platforms are Online Learning Platforms such as Courserra or Linked In Learning. Also Skill Gap Assessment tools, which are normally embedded inside broader HRIT systems - but can also be available standalone.
Mentoring and Coacing is another method for building skills either from internal or external expert professionals.
And Career Planning software which is a broader application of skill-building encompassing understanding employees needs, providing directional growth options, and then skills-mapping to those options, and identifying gaps for development work.
Actvo acts as both Career Planning software and a Career Coach (albeit AI enabled) acting as a simple all-in-one light solution fo managers looking to support teams with both skill development and career & mobility planning.
Career Coaching is a common companion to Skills Development. This is because many people either don't know what skills they need to develop, why, and how is the best way for them to acquire them.
This is an optimum way to do skill development inside an organisation as it means each employee is learning the right things, in the right way - increasing the chances of successful implementation of the new skills into their workday. The challenge is very few firms have both coaches available, or the skills mapping and evaluation tools to support employees.
Large HRIS platforms offer these, but for smaller mid-sized firms these are normally cost-prohibitive. Platforms like Actvo offer both skill development and career planning or a fraction of the price of a human coach, or implementing broader HRIS - so acts as a 'light' HR software solution for companies looking to develop skills, increase employee mobility, increase engagement, and reduce churn.
Career Planning Software is a simple, affordable way for organisations to boost skill development.
This is due to the personalised nature of most systems, who first start by understanding employees needs, then mapping skills needed to meet those needs to the employee individually. Career Planning software systems also identify the right learning materials for each employee, meaning that self-directed learning is more affordable and effective at rapidly upskilling & reskilling employees.
Platforms like Actvo focus specifcally on skill development by helping employees understand challenges and barriers standing in their way of performance or growth, and then helps them create personalised learning pathways to build new skills and experience.
The most important things to look for when choosing a skill development or career planning system or platform are:
1) Skills Assessment + Gap Analysis
2) Personalised and Adaptive Learning Pathways
3) Range of Learning Activities include collaborative, social and on-the-job experential learning
4) Accountability Tracking.
All of these features are highly designed inside Actvo.
