2 Retail Training and Employee Development Benchmark Survey 2015 Retail Council of Canada (RCC), in partnership with WCG International Consultants Ltd., conducted a member survey to identify training and development benchmarks. Over 50 retail-training professionals participated in this survey representing retailers of all sizes throughout Canada. Overall, the results show employee training and development is a key tool used by retailers to improve staff and store effectiveness and to improve employee engagement. Lessons learned from the survey: 1. A shortage of skilled candidates exists to meet retailer s recruitment needs 2. Attitude and soft skills are priorities in the recruitment and selection process 3. The focus of training currently delivered is operational in nature with a focus towards policy and procedures and management development 4. Post-Secondary education is seen as a nice-to-have, but not a requirement for retail positions. Respondent s also support continuing education initiatives for employees. 5. e-learning and Classroom are the predominant methods of training for retailers 1

Does your organization track lost work hours due to employees attending training? Yes 21.6% No 78.4% Less than 80% of survey respondents do not track lost work hours due to employees attending training. Employers can benefit from capturing this information to identify optimal scheduling of employees to avoid peak traffic periods, ensuring timely completion of training and implementation of cost controls. 9
11 Final Thoughts: More retailers are hiring based primarily on soft skills, and opting to train the more foundational retail skills likely due to the skills gap that exists in the labour market. Leadership development, which has been identified as a need, can be a focus to elevate the talent pool. Keys to success in this area will be: - Developing a Leadership Development Program - Explore more creativity for non-traditional learning and development. By using e-based and mobile learning platforms, employers can provide a more flexible learning method. - A greater understanding of the costs and benefits associated with training must be adopted by tracking, measuring and analyzing to understand the impact it has on the bottom line. 10
