SAP SuccessFactors Career Development Planning and Mentoring (CDP), part of the Talent Management area of the SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite, enables employees to benefit from a wide range of career development activities. CDP also provides managers with standardized methods to track the success of their direct reports.
Career Development Planning provides many important benefits, such as:
- Focusing on engaging and retaining top talent by helping employees build career development plans and track progress.
- Allowing for personal growth as employees take on development activities that are relevant and actionable where the follow-through is recorded.
- Empowering employees to plan their careers by identifying job roles that are of interest and researching the competencies and skills necessary to do those jobs well.
CDP also opens the door to fully customizing the development plan and integrations with other SAP modules, such as SAP SuccessFactors Learning or SAP SuccessFactors Succession.
Career Development Planning & Mentoring offers employees advancement opportunities through integrated development goals, competencies, learning activities, future roles, career paths, and mentoring.
The tools within this area vary based on module version, template permissions, and Role-Based Permissions (RBP). These tools allow managers and human resource departments to assist employees looking to advance their careers.
