ELD System is about process that include plan, observe and analyze the employee training, career development and employee’s performance. Then after analyze career development, recommend the training program and analyze the program. The main purpose of Employee Learning and Development (ELD) in the organization to improve employee’s performance and also organization’s itself. In order to improve the employee’s performance, the organization should provide training program, to increase the employee’s knowledge, skill and attitudes towards their current work. ELD also to ensure the employees keep on competitiveness and help them to manage their stress due to overload.
ELD system allows employee in the organization access the training and development systems that related to them and explained the level of performance by each employee before attending the training. ELD system will show whose the employee that having good working performance in period of time and this will give high opportunities to that employee to fulfill the new position and promotion selected by the management. In addition the system consist details information about the program such as provide module, training methods, length of time and venue. The systems will also show the results of the program evaluations which are summative evaluation and formative evaluation. According to Easterby-Smith (1986), summative evaluation establishes whether T&D program was effective, efficient, has added value and has meet its objectives while for summative evaluation, it is assess how training, learning and development can be improved. ELD software application can facilitate the entire training and development process in terms for record all the information related and to make a need analysis of the training.
Advantages for ELD system are first, ELD system really high cost effective and accessibility which employee for entire the organization can get the information about the training just only assess the system and it is really not costly. Then, ELD system really helps to empowerment and facilitation which provide information to employee to make their self assessment and at the same time give opportunity for the employees to enhance own interpersonal development. Other benefit for ELD system is it will improve computer skills for the employee. Since that the employee must face the computer during the training session, so it is automatically can improve their computer skills.
Since that ELD system really has a lot of advantages and very useful but it does not mean that the system does not have any negative perspective. Disadvantage for ELD system are, certain contents are not suitable to employees which not all the employee have the same problems and other disadvantage is lack of human contact which it is too computerization and lack face to face communication. According to Nunes, McPherson, Annasingh, Bashir and Patterson (2009), lack of human touch is about lack of interaction with knowledgeable trainers and the lack of socialization with fellow learners.
By studying ELD system, now I really acknowledge that providing training and development program are really important to ensure that every employee are more motivated, innovation and will create learning organization. Without ELD system, it is hard for the organization to manage the T&D program.
