Norris Conference Center
WAVES is the first conference solely focused on the application of technology to address the challenge of competency and skills management. Whether your competency programs are geared towards competency assurance to satisfy regulations or focused on workforce development to meet the challenges of tomorrow, Waves is not to be missed. Attendees will hear from leading-edge organizations about how they have successfully implemented competency and skills-based programs into their Human Capital Management processes. And of course, there will be plenty of “show and tell” covering all of the new and exciting developments from our best-in-class competency platform, Kahuna!
The conference will provide you with the opportunity to network with your peers who share experiences in one of the fundamental issues facing Learning/Development & Operational leaders; utilizing competencies and skills to retool the workforce of the future.
