The\u00a0city of V\u00e4ster\u00e5s<\/strong>\u00a0is growing and is Sweden’s sixth-largest city. Every year Vasteras gets about 1,000\u00a0new residents, and at the end of 2012 there were around 140,000 residents in the city.<\/p>\n

The population increase is mainly due to positive net migration and\u00a0V\u00e4ster\u00e5s<\/strong>\u00a0is the largest local employer. By the end of 2010, they had about 10,000 employees, including 7,500 permanent employees and 2,500 temporary employees.\u200b<\/p>\n

The Challenge<\/h3>\n

V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad needed to be able to manage competencies to attract and recruit new employees with the right skills, develop and retain employees and help the employees adapt to changes in the business or employee group.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

The Solution<\/h3>\n

V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad was in need of both a structural competence management system and a traditional learning management system with high usability.<\/p>\n

In 2013, V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad chose Xtractor and Totara Lear<\/a>\u00a0combined with Comaea and Wise group. By integrating the two systems, V\u00e4ster\u00e5s started their journey to enhance their competence management.<\/p>\n

They needed to work with both strategic and operational competences and connect in-house and external learning, which Xtractor’s solution helped them achieve.<\/p>\n

Now that V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad has been working with competence management for a few years, they\u2019re ready to take the next step by defining competence profiles for both employees and managers, and from that developing a course catalogue with more advanced learning solutions matching the competence need.<\/p>\n

With Totara Learn\u00a0and Comaea, V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad has been able to make the right decisions regarding mapping and development of competencies, and has significantly improved its ability to manage employees effectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cTotara Learn\u00a0has a functionally that is top-notch and its usability is also top-notch. The system is intuitive and it is extremely rare that one of our employees does not understand how to navigate the system.” \u2013 Mats Wistrand, HR Strategist,\u00a0V\u00e4ster\u00e5s Stad<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
