Ten Training Tips For Moving Your Company Ahead

1. A training program should be championed by Human Resources,
   but should have active participation and commitment from
   Operations, Sales, and most important, executive management.
2. A successful program should be in sync with corporate goals,
   departmental goals, and employee goals for win-win results.
3. A successful program should incorporate position descriptions,
   career paths, performance objectives, training courses, and
   monetary/promotional rewards into a single cohesive package.
4. In order to attract employees with drive and initiative who
   want to advance their careers, your career development/training
   program should be optional.
5. A variety of recognition and rewards should be awarded on
   both short- and logner-term bases.
6. Training courses and career opportunities should be offered
   at every level of the organization to facilitate growth and to
   promote morale at all levels.
7. Training courses should be fun, highly participative, well
   designed and executed, and should offer a combination of "big picture"
   knowledge as well as hands-on skills development.
8. Successful leaders and mentors within the company should participate
   in training courses and should sit in on classes whenever possible.
9. A career development/training program should be highly and
   continuously marketed.
10. A program must be continually reviewed, including the courses,
    the rewards, and the results to ensure that they are still achieving
    your original objectives.
