    Career development refers to helping individuals progress in their careers within an organization over long periods of time. Many employees stay with large organizations for their entire careers, taking on different roles over time rather than changing employers. It is beneficial for organizations to actively support career development so they can make the most of employees' skills as their careers progress. Tools used for career planning include self-assessments, competency catalogs, and career architecture maps that show progression opportunities. Career development advantages include engagement, retention, and opportunities for mobility within the organization.

    Career development

    Career development refers to the development of the individuals career in the organisation. In a large organisation, the majority of staff are typically recruited at the beginning of their career and stay on until retirement. In the course of their career they are likely to carry out a number of different jobs, especially if they are in a professional, administrative or managerial position. The sequence of HR activities outlined so far, however, does not allow for this fact. It implies that the individual only moves from one job to another by making a job application, as if he or she were joining the organisation for the first time. While this is one of the ways in which individuals move jobs within an organisation, many organisations now believe that they should develop the individuals career so that the organisation gets the maximum benefit from his or her services, and should provide opportunities for career development to individuals.

    International Employee Development the aim is to enable people to become more effective in their present job in an overseas location; account will need to be taken of cultural factors (in terms of how development programmes are delivered), and the extent to which there is central direction of programmes from the organisation, although they may be delivered locally.
