To help Human Resources departments decide on the appropriate job candidates, identify current employees' skill gaps, promote career and skills development among staff, and evaluate the company's workforce proficiencies, eKnowledge created Bredge™ Competency Management System; a powerful skill gap analysis tool that enables companies to select the right candidates for vacancies within the organization as well as manage the training cycle of current staff at the same time.

From a single platform, you can match your business objectives with the skills you require, and through Bredge™ Competency Management System's comprehensive assessment tool, you can create an assessment test for each job to assess each staff member's and/or job seeker's relevant skills and understand where skill gaps exist.

The system then allows you to set training objectives, recommend and obtain training content and/or educational programs that close each learner's personal skill gaps, and gather and present the results in the form of management reports that are tailored to meet your reporting requirements.

Unlike traditional training sessions that you would normally give to all your staff members, Bredge™ Competency Management System guarantees that each trainee within your organization is provided with a personalized career development plan. The system allows each user to specify his/her career objectives, have access to tools that help him/her assess the skills that are relevant to the desired career path within the organization, and provides individual recommendations so as to what certifications and skills are required for achieving these career goals, and the courses that help bridge this user's individual skill gaps.

Bredge™ Competency Management System is highly flexible as it allows you to make any changes in your organization's defined job families, individual jobs, each job's skill requirements, certifications, assessments or relevant courses at any point in time.

Bredge™ Competency Management System is web based, which means that no downloads are necessary by staff, job seekers, trainers or management to utilize the system and that it is accessible by all users through the internet and/or intranet, wherever and whenever they are.

The system's interface is now bilingual (Arabic and English), and new languages can be added as needed. Both the system's interface and functionality are highly customizable to reflect your company's identity and match your specific functional requirements.
