>source of maximizing the Return-On-Investment in people and technology in

>It seems like a paradox that recently we have been saying that we need the

>Talent is on, and one of the main challenges refers to having the right
>employees with the right qualifications at the right time. Shifting from
>content management to human capital management and talent identification
>involves conventional and new technologies, and traditional and novel
>approaches to learning, assessment and performance technologies, and
>quality management. Many exciting technologies exist, but the application
>of these technologies for quality management and recruitment needs, skills
>and competency development has often been lacking coherence and their
>uptake unacceptably delayed.

>The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a forum for academics and
>practitioners to draw attention to future trends and recent developments as
>well as practical implementations and evaluation results in assessment,
>competency and recruitment technology.

>
>The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
>
> - Novel models for quality of learning, training and assessment
> - Next generation learning, training and assessment environments
> - Assessment methodologies toward meaningfulness and practical
> effectiveness of learning and skills, and related technologies and

> - Screening technologies and developments
> - Technology infrastructures for adopting career development, and

> - Technology infrastructures for competency development in education,

> - Technology infrastructures for the alignment between strategic

> - Standardization in terms of personal data, competency data, curriculum

>We are interested in both theoretical and practical papers that aim to
