What Do You Need for a Good Training Program?


 Finding the time, money, and resources to train both new and existing personnel is a constant challenge. Some studies have shown that training costs can be leveraged to show a three-to-one return by both identifying and preventing problems in manufacturing environments. Many quality specifications and systems require a documented training set-up and internal round robins (RR) to validate that the teaching has provided adequate instruction. There are many keys to a successful training program such as flexibility within the work schedule, the combination of both classroom and hands-on instruction, and discipline by both teachers/students to stay the course for completion of the course work. For many technical topics, training programs outside the company work environment are available. Many of the programs mirror the worldwide accepted non-destructive testing (NDT) type of training. There is some talk of certification for many types of training. However, in many cases, it is not difficult to set up a system given the guidelines/suggestions to formulate a program. Lessons learned and some sample program outlines will be presented and discussed.
