PEDE (PEople DEvelopment) supports

• defining the organization (structure, workforce)
• defining the skill system (positions, qualifications and abilities)
• defining the personnel processes and relating them to positions 
• visualization of target-actual differences in manpower need (by position, by process) and skills (qualification matrix)
• planning and recording personnel training
• training effectiveness evaluation

PEDE uses and advanced access control system which greatly reduces the amount of configuration required and which allows every user to participate in the people development process in compliance with his or her organizational role. The advanced access control system derives permissions from the organizational role of a user. For instance, the head of a department can see skills of the employees assigned to him or her, but not the skills of other employees.
