1.1.1.2. Cons
1.1.1.2.1. some history of troubles with sales rep
1.1.1.2.2. vendor says "liberry"
1.1.1.2.3. doesn't delineate between what constitutes a specific skill level - would need to build our own levels out
1.1.1.2.4. 800 competencies added within the past year - so lots of roles that aren't represented
1.1.1.2.5. competencies seemed very detailed (not broken out) for non clinical roles
1.1.1.2.6. would need to build out our levels if we wanted them
1.1.1.3. questions
1.1.1.3.1. are there competencies that go across roles?
1.1.1.3.2. can you create a link to an external manufacturers web site
1.1.1.3.3. won't allow their material in Halogen - how would integration work?
1.1.1.3.4. could we get it without getting Lippincott?
1.1.1.3.5. cost?

1.1.2.1. Pros
1.1.2.1.1. vendor isn't stupid
1.1.2.1.2. whole person approach
1.1.2.1.3. opensource API integration
1.1.2.2. Cons
1.1.2.2.1. no current integrations with Halogen or SumT - but we have talked with them. Have done with PeopleSoft, HealthStream, NetLearning, etc.
1.1.2.3. costs - no per person fees - need total beds/facility.
1.2. Kibosh
1.2.1. Camden Delta
1.2.1.1. We would still need to create the competencies
1.2.2. IHRS
1.2.2.1. Pros

1.2.2.2. Cons
1.2.2.2.1. won't allow their material in Halogen
1.2.2.2.2. Vendor rep
1.2.2.2.3. doesn't auto-populate today's dates - system is clunky enough that clients will have secretaries do actual data entry
1.2.2.2.4. Agnesian had a bad experience with them
1.2.2.2.5. ownership is on Educator, not employee-driven
1.2.2.2.6. levels are 3-level, not 4-level
1.2.2.2.7. competencies are uniform across all roles - SO - I couldn't be progressing in my competency as a LPN when it goes across competency

1.2.3.1.1. nice integration with Epic
1.2.3.1.2. Good learning modules for staff to get skill refreshers
1.2.3.1.3. if they do have task lists, we'd want to validate that if we're referencing Timby's for P&P we'd want to be aware of potential discrepencies
1.2.3.2. Cons
1.2.3.2.1. looks very task-oriented; knowledge test-y
1.2.3.2.2. Mostly nursing/RT focused
1.2.3.2.3. vendor rep doesn't represent product well
