BLOOM Performance Management System

Shelley Moore July 24, 2011 Latest BLOOM News / Announcements

BLOOM now allows managers to request job changes for their employees.  By selecting an employee in the My Team list, a manager can request a job change such as a pay raise, promotion, termination and even a new hire for a new employee.  When the request is submitted, HR Admins are notified to approve such requests using the same approval screens previously provided in the system. 

To learn more call us at 574.970.1322.  Here is a link showing the screens for these new functions!

New Learning Features Make Sign Up & Monitoring a  Breeze

This week BLOOM launched new features in the Learning Management module including greater ease and tracking tools for assigning and monitoring  training classes, programs and activities to employees.  Here are the highlights:

  • Learning sign up process for employees: employees can directly sign up for classes via the company training schedule or their individual training record by clicking Register Now to start the approval process.

  • HR and manager learning approval process:  for each class, determine whether manager approval is required in addition to HR. Then once an employee signs up, managers and HR will receive inbox notices to approve learning activities to keep the process moving forward.

  • Load learning files and links:  provide more details to your learning classes, programs and activities by directing employees to documents and online links needed for completing learning assignments.

  • New online reports for easy monitoring: Track learning completed and due by employee and by class to improve completion rates and to make scheduling easier.

  • Expanded grading options:  track scores, grades, pass/fail, credits, hours and GPA results for training classes and activities.  Accumulate hours and credits to show overall learning results.
