Question: Why is training even important? Let me ask you this: isn’t the competency of your employees, on the job they are responsible for doing, directly related to how well they were trained? If you believe as we do, that the answer is, “Yes!”, then what’s the solution to better, long lasting, cost efficient and highly effective training?
Answer: It’s effectively managing the entire training process! And guess what? There’s an “app” for that! It’s the application of the TWI: 2018 Training Management System International Standard.
This recently introduced International Standard, is a generic template, that deals specifically with the process of training and what is needed to ensure your training works. And by “works”, we mean it’s effective, efficient and will sustain in the long run. By implementing a “managed” program of carefully thought out initiatives, it allows you to reap the full benefits, and continued return, of your training investment. And shouldn’t your training positively affect the key performance indicators of your business? Managing your training, the same way you manage other important business strategies, ensures that the training is meaningful and provides significant ROI.
Alan Lane, Director of the TWI-Institute, USA Southern Region, will explain the standard in detail including some history of TWI, (Training Within Industry), the basis of the standard and how you can become certified.
