Awareness of the companies of the importance of human resources has been increasing. It is difficult to find a company that does not put effort and financial resources in the process of human resources development in order to improve and optimize their business activity. In doing so, it is necessary to recognize the specific social group of the employed adults. Only in such a way the responsible persons can develop a quality process for the development of their own employees.
In this context the term “specific social groups” refers to the age range of employees and to the associated differences prior to knowledge, perception, motivation, internalized patterns gained with education and ability to adapt to changes.
With this objective, the first part of the diploma describes and defines the theoretical aspects of adult education and the importance and development of competences. Since the topic is quite broad, the content is limited to the non-formal education by using modern information technology, the so called “e-learning”.
In the second part of the diploma the development process of e-learning in the company X, representing one of the key directions of the company, has been introduced. I outlined the business need for e-learning development which gives us an insight in the developing process, such as reasons, goals and benefits of the implementation plan. The preparation of the “e-learning” materials and documents is also described. In my opinion, human resources development should be viewed as a whole, therefore the description of competences development in the company is also included in this part. The last part involves the hypotheses related to use of e-learning and to the model of competences that are verified with an online survey. The data collected are analysed, described and graphically presented.
