The Training Process

skills they need to perform their jobs.

terms of the company’s strategic goals.
• Performance Management
– Taking an integrated, goal-oriented approach to
assigning, training, assessing, and rewarding
employees’ performance.

Training, Learning, and Motivation
• Make the Learning Meaningful
1. At the start of training, provide a bird’s-eye view of
the material to be presented to facilitate learning.
2. Use a variety of familiar examples.
3. Organize the information so you can present it
logically, and in meaningful units.
4. Use terms and concepts that are already familiar to
trainees.
5. Use as many visual aids as possible.
8–6
Training, Learning, and Motivation
(cont’d)
• Make Skills Transfer Easy
1. Maximize the similarity between the training
situation and the work situation.
2. Provide adequate practice.
3. Label or identify each feature of the machine and/or
step in the process.
4. Direct the trainees’ attention to important aspects of
the job.
5. Provide “heads-up,” preparatory information that lets
trainees know what might happen back on the job.
8–7
Motivation Principles for Trainers
• People learn best by doing—provide as much
realistic practice as possible.
• Trainees learn best when the trainers
immediately reinforce correct responses.
• Trainees learn best at their own pace.
• Create a perceived training need in the trainees’
minds.
• The schedule is important—the learning curve
goes down late in the day; less than full day
training is most effective.
