Our company has supported the promotion of DX human resource development in many companies through assessments based on the “Digital Skills Standard.”
However, as we continued to provide the service, the following issues became apparent.
* 1. Difficult to manage large-scale testing*
– The number of test taking cases for all employees is increasing, making it difficult to manage the test taking and learning status of thousands to 10,000 people.
– Test takers don’t know what to do, and the number of inquiries to the office increases, requiring more man-hours to respond.
* 2. Stagnant learning effects for “weak groups”*
– There is a tendency for scores to not improve even after taking assessments or taking supplementary e-learning among people who are not good at or have a sense of resistance to IT and DX.
– Situation where corporate needs for raising the level of DX literacy across the company cannot be fully met
We have implemented this update to resolve these issues and aim to more effectively improve skills and improve the learning experience. * ■Main reinforcement points*
