Relationship between Dynamic Learning for Career and Employability

Abstract

In the post-modern era, it is more meaningful to identify individuals' careers in terms of the achievements relating to their work experiences - knowledge, skills, competences - rather than in terms of job titles or career progression. The most important guarantee of career security is employability, the enhancement of career potential - development of career capital and personal career management resources needed in the complex environment. Work tasks, roles, formal and informal training, and relationships with co-workers in organisations serve as career experiences in which the knowledge and skills acquired in the course of these experiences are used in current and future jobs. Dynamic learning is therefore a key process in the career potential development of employees. In the rapidly changing business environment, companies are increasingly confronted with completely new situations and problems where old solutions are not suitable and the situation has to be solved in the here and now, without having time to gather all the necessary information, or with insufficient information. Learning and acting in today's complex context must be agile and integrated. It is therefore believed that a dynamic employee learning process, appropriately designed by the organisation, can meet the need for employee career development on the one hand and organisational adaptability on the other. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between dynamic learning for career and employability in the population of employees working in high-tech companies. The findings of the study confirmed the existence of a positive relationship between a dynamic career learning process and employability.
