International Society for Performance Improvement
www.ispi.org
The International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) is dedicated to improving productivity and performance in the workplace. The US-based society represents more than 10,000 members, and its website providesresources for those members.
Sections include conferences, publications, professional services, chapters, a bookstore and a job bank. One of the more interesting sections is on HPT, or human performance technology. The society argues that every available resource must be used to increase competitiveness and maintain a high level of success in today’s business world, and as such, it has helped develop the concept of HPT. This technology is a systematic approach to improving productivity and competence of employees, and a graphical model is detailed on the site to help explain the concept.
Another useful resource for HR practitioners includes discussion forums, with resident experts fielding questions in forums such as principles and practices, measuring and demonstrating value of HPT, instructional technology trends and competency modelling.
Navigating the site is straight-forward, with a logical breakdown of each topic area. Design is practical, but overall, ISPI is of limited use to Australian HR professionals.
