Architecture of a Competence-Based Human Resource Development Solution

This article offers and analyses system architecture for a solution that would provide for the implementation of a competence-based human resource development based on three approaches: (1) Competences as unified evaluation criteria; (2) Automated development planning based on the lack of individual competences of employees; (3) Knowledge management and e- learning integration for human resource development.The tasks and reciprocity of principal components of the system (competency management, development management, e-learning and knowledge management) is reviewed in the context of application. The article offers an application of the xAPI standard for gathering and accumulation of learning experience data, which allows the forming of an open system architecture. The solution is verified in practice in the work process of a study centre. The obtained results prove the reciprocity of competence management systems by using the learning event DB, and enabling integration such with external systems to provide for open architecture.
