Touring services grow as relocation strategies embrace temporary assignments
Temporary assignments continue to grow in lieu of permanent employee relocations as companies adjust their talent management strategies to reflect the difficulties employees have selling a home in a sluggish housing market.

Are you being smart about your background checks?
Between 1995 and 2010, the number of companies utilizing background checks as a part of their hiring process expanded dramatically enough that one could say, without exaggeration, that demand for pre-employment screening products has exploded. Significant policy changes in the insurance industry are in large part responsible for this shift; in order to reduce liability, many employers are required to perform at least some level of screening on new hires. Figures generated by Shield Employment indicate that the industry currently represents between $2-3 billion annually, and continues to grow at a rapid pace. Shield’s projections indicate that that figure may triple to $9 billion by 2020.
Employees and college: What is accreditation and why is it important?
Accreditation means that a school has been evaluated by education authorities to ensure it is offering high quality learning opportunities. Some schools are regionally accredited, others are nationally accredited, and the programs they offer may have a "specialized" accreditation. Once you understand the different classifications, you'll be better equipped to make solid choices pertaining to training and development funds for employee education.
