Assignment 3: Developing and Retaining Employees

Overview
HR staff are called upon to create career development plans for employees at organizations of all sizes. Established organizations must update their career development strategies often while new and growing organizations need to create career development plans as a complement to an overall retention strategy.
In this assignment, youll research the importance of career development planning and the role that HR plays. In addition, youll provide recommendations for how to address challenges in career development, create a general career development questionnaire addressing individual employee career goals, and provide a framework and rationale for a comprehensive organizational employee development plan.

Scenario

Youll work within the United States HR division and will need to create an employee development plan. Your first task is to research employee development plans and understand potential challenges inherent in these plans. Then, youll need to create an employee questionnaire to be used as the basis for, and the first step toward, crafting a comprehensive organizational employee development plan.

Provide the rationale for establishing a career development plan that cites credible sources and includes the benefits of a plan for both employees and the organization.

Create a career development plan questionnaire with 78 questions that address individual employee career ambitions and that will enable the initial steps toward a comprehensive organizational-level plan.

Describe the major components of a comprehensive organizational-level plan, citing credible sources, that include the concept of career mapping.
