Nurturing your employees skills and\u00a0constantly upskilling them throughout their career is an essential\u00a0\u00a0task and one in which all good businesses have adopted. Creating an effective training plan for staff provides them with the opportunity to grow and develop, whereas having an ineffective program will only demotivate staff and decrease productivity levels as a result.\u00a0\u00a0Therefore, your training content must be development and structured correctly for optimal benefit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this article we will go through the 3 steps needed in order to create successful self-generated training content for staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Understanding the task at hand<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0idea of conducting training for employees may come from anywhere in the\u00a0organisation,\u00a0from the head of the sales department, whose team didn\u2019t reach the KPI, to someone who thinks that there are too many meetings, and work hours are being mismanaged. So before you begin writing a script for a new\u202fonline course<\/a>, it\u2019s a good idea to ask some questions. These questions will form the basis of what\u2019s called a training needs analysis.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 2: Designing an Outline of the Program<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n What you need to do now is identify content that matches the needs, a suitable format for distributing it, and some easily measurable metrics that aid you with monitoring the course of the program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning objectives <\/p>\n\n\n\n Unlike training goals focused on business metrics, learning objectives are learner-centric as they describe what people should know, be able to do, or feel as the result of the training. Good learning objectives are usually tightly connected with learners on-the-job results. \u201cWhen learners complete this program, they\u2019ll be able to\u2026\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n Since training programs usually consist of more than one module or lesson, you\u2019ll also need to write down subgoals for each of them. If the overarching learning objective is to teach employees how to use a Popcorn machine, the subgoals can be: <\/p>\n\n\n\n For lesson 1 \u2014 learn the control switches <\/p>\n\n\n\n For lesson 2 \u2014 learn how to install the machine and make it ready for work <\/p>\n\n\n\n For lesson 3 \u2014 learn how to fill the machine with ingredients <\/p>\n\n\n\n For lesson 4 \u2014 learn how to sanitize the machine <\/p>\n\n\n\n Instructional tactics <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dave Meier, in\u202fThe Accelerated Learning Handbook<\/a>, describes a four-phase learning cycle. These phases are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
