Bersin & Associates, a leading analyst in the fields of Talent Management, Learning Management and human capital development, has recognized TEDS’ fully integrated Talent Management system in their recent industry study, Learning Management Systems 2009. “TEDS Talent Management Solution is an integrated technology platform designed to handle all aspects of learning and talent management,” the report said. “The company was one of the first providers to see the value of an employee development, management and planning system. Overall, the system is far-reaching and complete in its vision for integrated learning and talent management.”
TEDS, Inc. is a Virginia-based software development and consulting firm that provides talent management systems and support services for world-class companies and organizations throughout the U.S. and around the world. The company developed and launched the first Learning Management System ( LMS ) in 1989 and soon began integrating other elements of human capital planning, development and management. The current version of TEDS’ Talent Management System integrates learning, performance, competencies, succession, compensation, workforce planning, talent acquisition and staffing on one platform utilizing a single database.
Bersin & Associates’ Learning Management Systems 2009 goes on to say, “TEDS pioneered the development of an integrated platform for employee development and management. In fact, the company was ahead of its time – often promoting and selling the benefits of workforce management before most companies realized the potential benefits of an integrated system.”
The report also recognized TEDS’ dedication to customer service and satisfaction. “TEDS also prides itself on a deep level of involvement, engagement and understanding of its customers,” the study concludes. “The company’s TEDS Consortium is a collaborative group of customers who learn from each other to understand how to build talent management strategies, initiatives and solutions. In these early days of integrated talent management, we believe such an initiative is highly valuable and important for a customer’s success.”
“We commend Bersin & Associates’ team for another outstanding study and analysis of market trends, company practices and vendor offerings in the learning and talent management industry,” said Joe Ellis, TEDS’ CEO. Learning Management Systems 2009 is a detailed and comprehensive work and we are proud of the recognition the study gives to TEDS and our work on fully integrated talent management.”
