Starting training program
Question
October 7, 2003
Hello, I am about to accept a position with a company in upper management. This company has no training program at this time, but is very interested in getting one started. Since all of my other employers already had training programs in place I have never had to establish one. I feel very capable to do it , but would like a little guidence on where to get started. I believe that this would be a great way to show my interest in helping the company prosper. Thank You, Eddie

Answer
The biggest issue in establishing a training program is to show those above you the value of it and return on investment. Many companies see training as money out the window. It has to be shown that workers will become more productive and will increase profits for the company with their new skills. An area of concern is that trained workers may soon leave for higher paying jobs elsewhere.
The big thing is to establish some specific goals to achieve or problems to solve with the training.
With the number of good online trainng programs available, you may be able to provide training at reduced costs compared with classroom training.
Best wishes in your efforts. Let me know what happens with your plans.
