Abstract:
The article discusses the method of using ontologies
for developing a mobile application of the corporate e-learning
system in the process of adaptation of companies’ new
employees. The problems of shortening the period of adaptation
of newly recruited employees force companies to look for
effective methods of personnel management, their training and
development. Well-known publications and the best
developments in the field of mobile devices in corporate training
systems, which allow to determine the vector of development of
corporate training systems from e-learning to mobile learning,
were considered. The widespread use of mobile devices makes
the process of learning and adaptation of employees flexible,
convenient, which leads to reduction of the time for employees to
join the company's business processes. The problems of
motivation and staff engagement in the process of early
adaptation remain, but they are solved in the course of our other
studies. The original method is use of ontologies when building
individual learning paths in the process of adaptation of
employees. The article examines the main approaches to the
presentation and analysis of employees’ competencies based on
ontologies when building modern corporate systems of
adaptation and personnel training. An original approach to
creating mobile applications is proposed, which reduces the time
for adaptation and training of new employees.
