What Is Talent Management System?

Like the learning management system, the talent management system (TMS) is an electronic environment with multiple participants in multiple roles. In this case, the system is used to manage not only training and development, but also compensation and benefits, recruitment, and often performance assessment.

The training area looks the most like an LMS most of the time, with other parts of the program providing unique functions that have no comparative counterpart in other online environments. The tool is useful for HR departments because it facilitates their record-keeping along several axes, making it easy to cross-reference an employee's professional development, workplace evaluations, and history of promotions and compensation adjustments.
