STACS

STACS provides business owners with a management tool to gain a holistic picture of their current skill sets in the company and how this correlates with business requirements. Our system ranges from a simple reporting system which tracks current training initiatives in your business to a more robust system to centralise the skills function in your company and to track skill levels and identify future skill needs. The system can easily export data for reporting purposes to a range of file types and is entirely customised to your requirements.
