DynEd - a method which allows for the effective measuring of investments into HR development

Objectively determining the degree of English language knowledge in real time - an effective tool for HR managers.

The ability to measure results is one of the fundamental parameters by which we judge all fields of human activity. In the field of HR it is very difficult to accurately measure the development of staff, mainly due to subjective assessment. One of the common problems in  HR is objectively determining the level of English language proficiency of  particular staff.

In language education today, there are clearly defined standards when achieving a certain  level of linguistic knowledge (TOEFL, TOIC, Cambridge exams, CEFS, etc.).After attaining a certain level of linguistic knowledge, a key consideration is how much time has passed from the examination. In the event that the exam was taken more than 5 years ago and the person does not use English on an everyday basis, it is almost certain that the practical validity of the certificate is low. So the question is: "What is the person’s real level of knowledge in this area (English language) ?"

The DynEd system which is linked to the above mentioned standards enables students ,instructors and HR managers to regularly monitor progress in language proficiency and allows more accurate goal targeting  than other  metrics. The B2 degree of linguistic knowledge corresponds to the DynEd 2.5 level. The average English speaker does not have to  reach this  level in practice and can agree on a  lower level with his employer .This can be anything between theB1 and B2 levles( DynEd  metric eg 2.2).

The DynEd  system can accurately determine the required number of hours that a student needs to achieve this goal, because  a  placement test  specifies the starting level and all participants of  the  process - staff - student, teacher and HR managers are able to allocate the necessary time and financial resources to effectively achieve the set  goal. At the same time the current level of English language proficiency of the individual can be accurately and objectively measured.

Transparent monitoring of the study process and its evaluation in real time –a fundamental change in education investment management

At present there is a lot of pressure to invest effectively in any field. As mentioned above, the area of human resource development is not only influenced by personal evaluation, but also by the inability to measure the intensity of study.

The DynEd system allows for an absolutely accurate measurement of the amount of study time, the efficiency of its use and the success rate of evaluation tests. This way you can objectively measure the amount of time invested by staff - students on one side and the financial investment by the employer.

At present the only way to measure the intensity of study is the number of hours spent in the classroom. The DynEd system enables easy and continuous monitoring of a person's ability to use the resources provided. An important factor is also the possibility of instant feedback that is provided regularly after the end of each calendar week (or. each calendar month).The HR manager is given comprehensive information about the number of hours spent in active study, the accuracy of the learning method and success in written tests, which allows for a evaluation of the investment.

The  DynEd system reports  provides information about the  given courses and its different parts (modules).

The information from reports is sufficient for the effective management of investments into human resource development within the area of language learning. It allows HR managers to easily manage the learning process of selected employees. It also provides a comprehensive argument when securing the budgets of the HR department.

Measurement, efficiency, transparency - current requirements for the development of HR

The DynEd system brings fundamental changes to human resource development .It allows you to clearly define the current situation and goals, prepare a realistic plan to achieve set targets and monitor the entire procedure. For HR managers this product finally provides transparent access to the (financial and time) investments of a company which promotes human resources development at this level of technical sophistication. This is a completely revolutionary approach that caters to the current requirements of any company.
