Imagine you’re well into bringing your company out of the analog age with an upgrade to your HRIS: no more paper schedules, email-exchanged timecard corrections, or “back of a napkin” math for accrual policies. Finally, you’re upgrading your company to the finest HCM software. As the project champion, you have assured your fellow executives and stakeholders that the change will be relatively seamless. Then you find out your scheduling method of throwing darts at a calendar isn’t compatible with your shiny new HCM System—can you believe that?

Solution: Knowledge (Training) is Power!
