Action Plan Bulk Actions

Action Plans in 15Five are strategic plans that HR teams use to organize and measure the work you're doing to improve HR outcomes (employee performance, engagement, and/or retention) in your organization.

In this section, we'll walk through how to assign Microlearning courses to managers as part of an Action Plan.
