Managing Career Planning Self-Service

This topic provides an overview of career planning self service transactions, and discusses how to define employee self service profiles.

Using the Career Planning self service pages, employees can identify their current job profile, view the requirements of profiles in various paths, and compare their current skills, competencies, and qualifications with those in targeted profiles. Individuals can pull a profile into their development plan in order to quickly implement the creation of goals and actions based on gaps. Users can also target specific areas identified in the comparison and import those into their development plan. Individuals can gain insight into opportunities. For a particular job profile, employees can identify open positions and apply, nominate themselves, or send an email regarding the position.

If you have PeopleSoft Enterprise Learning Management installed, several of the Career Planning Self Service pages use a Search for Learning link to enable you to access the Request Training Enrollment page.

Description

Update Development Plan

Click to insert developmental areas into the your Career Development Plan based on the selected movement rows. The system inserts deltas for competencies and other profile topics as follows:

  • Employee competencies and other rated items with a lower rate than required by the job profile.

  • Required items on the job profile that are not in the employee's profile.

  • Items in the person profile that have more than one rating, and any of the ratings for that item are lower than required in the job profile. For example, ratings for language items such as Understanding, Reading, and Speaking.

Once the identified competencies and other items are inserted into the Career Development Plan, the system opens the Career Development Plan page so that you can update related information about the inserted items, such as the Estimated Completion Date, and so on.
