1 Module VII: Employee Training & Development INTRODUCTION Training vs. Development Training programs are intended to ensure employees are proficient in meeting the requirements of their current role. However development programs are intended to prepare or develop employees for future roles within the organization or in their profession. Why Training & Development Programs? The constant pace of industry and organizational change drives the need for continuous employee learning and development. As a result of increasing skills shortages, it is critical that organizations identify their talent requirements and align training and development programs accordingly. In addition, training and development has been identified as a driver of employee engagement, and for this reason, initiatives must be incorporated into the overall business strategy and planning. Training and development can be initiated for a variety of reasons, including: when performance reviews indicate improvement is needed; as part of an overall professional development program; as part of succession planning to ensure an employee possesses the required knowledge and skills to transition to a new role within the organization; or to train employees about a specific topic such as diversity, ethics, health and safety initiatives, or upgrading computer skills. Elements of Employee Training & Development Programs STEP 1: NEEDS ASSESSMENT Is training the solution to the problem? What training and development programs are required? Which employees require training? Needs Assessment Design: What are the desired learning outcomes? What is the most effective method of presenting content to the learner? Delivery: Evaluation Employee Training & Development Delivery How will employees receive the training? Who will conduct the training? Where and when will the training take place? Evaluation: How will you know if employees have achieved the intended earning outcome of the training program? Has the training resulted in improved performance of the employee, and/or the organization? Design 95
2 How does an organization determine their training and development needs? The needs assessment is the first step in determining what is causing the performance gap, is training the correct solution, what type or training, and who needs to undergo the training. A needs assessment can be broken down into three levels of analysis: 1. Organizational Analysis 2. Task Analysis 3. Person Analysis Organizational analysis takes a look at the organizations goals, constraints, and resources. It answers the question what does the organization want to achieve and how does it plan on getting there? Task analysis reviews job descriptions and specifications and identifies the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities required for effective performance. Person analysis determines what gaps exist between desired and actual performance, which employees possess which knowledge, skills, and abilities, and which employees require training. In addition, there are several factors that drive the need for employee training and development programs, including: 1. Job Specific Competencies Each position has specific core skills, knowledge, or certification requirements. Examples: strategic thinking, communication, attention to detail, decision-making, persuasiveness, creativity, and innovation 2. Organizational Competencies Organizations may have core skill, knowledge, or certification requirements for all employees regardless of position or level in the organization. Examples: flexibility, judgement, reliability, support of diversity 3. New Product or Service Offerings As a result of revised business strategies, or organizational changes, often new products or service offerings develop, requiring updated training programs for some/all employees. Example: implementation of a web based sales program requiring both process knowledge and technical skills training 4. Industry or Professional Development Requirements Often employees who are members of professional associations or industry groups are required to participate in ongoing professional development activities in order to maintain their membership. Examples: ISP Designation Information Systems Professional, IITP Designation International Information Technology Professional 5. Employee Performance As a result of issues related to employee performance, and a subsequent employee performance plan, there may be a requirement for that employee to participate in training or development programs to further develop their skills, abilities, and competencies 96
3 6. Succession Planning As organizations prepare their succession plan, employees identified for movement within the organization may be required to participate in development programs in preparation for new roles within the organization (for example Leadership Development Program, MBA). Organizations that are unable to provide financial support to employees looking to partake in development programs should consider the types of flexible work arrangements they can offer to help ensure the employees achieves success in both their professional and educational environments. 7. Organizational Strategy Organizational strategy will often drive the need for specific employee training and development programs. Changes in organizational strategy may include the expansion or refinement of the targeted customer base, or possibly changing the entire business delivery model. Example: organizational strategy of expanding operations into another country may require specific language training 8. Regulatory/Legislative Requirements Training and development programs are often driven by existing or changes in regulations or legislation. Examples: WHMIS (health and safety related training), PIPEDA (Privacy Legislation) Also Refer to: Tool 22: Identification Chart for Employee Training Needs Tool 23: Identification Chart for Training Needs STEP 2: DESIGN Considerations for the design of training and development programs Once the program delivery model has been determined, there are critical steps in the design of training development programs, including: 1. Determine Learning outcomes 2. Identify Program Content 3. Organize Program Content 4. Ensure training programs align with overall Business Strategy Learning Outcomes 1. Learning Outcomes: What is the purpose or intended outcome for those participating in the training or development program? (Note: there may be more than one learning outcome for a training initiative). A learning outcome details: An observable task that a learner will be able to perform at the end of the training The conditions utilized to perform the task The criteria that will be used to measure a learner's success Align with Business Strategy Organize Program Content Program Content Example of a learning outcome: At the end of this Learning module, the employee will be able to perform systems analysis / design and programming activities related to the creation of web and business applications. 97
4 CONTENT Determine the key information, directly related to the identified learning outcomes, to be incorporated into the training or development program. The training content will be based on the information gained in the needs assessment. For example, if the need is to learn a new type of software the content would be based on the theory and application of the specific software. The amount of content, complexity of content, and nature of the content will help determine how the content should be organized and the appropriate training method. 2. Content Organization How should content be organized? Determine if any of the identified learning outcomes should be grouped together. You can't teach everything at once, but sometimes it makes sense to put related topics together for the learners. These related topics can form the basis for a training module. Once topics have been grouped together, organize the content into program structure. Step-by-step: divide training content into an logical sequence and have the trainee learn and perform the tasks in proper seuqence Whole-to-part: whether the training is learned all at one time (whole) to one part at a time (part) Massed vs. Distributed: whether training is conducted in a single session (massed) or is divided into several sessions (distributed) Known-to-unknown: start training by reviewing content that the trainees are familiar with before moving onto new information General-to-specific: teach general concepts first before going into depth on specific subject matter How should ideas be presented based on the intended audience and in consideration of diverse learning styles: What are the different learning styles There are various learning styles and designing training programs to reflect this will increase the effectiveness. For more information What types of activities and exercises will best help learners? Group discussions Modeling Case Studies Applied practice How should learners' accomplishments be measured? (See last segment regarding the evaluation of training and development programs) (this segment adapted from Addie Instructional Design Methodology accessed at: Also Refer to: Tool 24: General Training Plan Tool 25: Specific Training Plan 98
5 STEP 3: DELIVERY Delivery of training and development programs There are various considerations in designing training and development programs, including the: expertise required timelines for completion nature of the program content cost and budget parameters; and, geographic location of the employees participating in the training program Based on these considerations, the options for program design include: 1. On-the-Job vs. Off-the-Job Training 2. Informal vs. Formal Training 3. Packaged vs. Customized Program 4. In-Person vs. Web Based Program On-the-Job vs. Off-the-Job Training: Organizations generally have more control over on-the-job training programs, specific to cost, and time and locations of program offerings. Internally delivered programs tend to be high volume, repetitive programming, where content changes infrequently, and expertise is readily available within the organization. (Example: New Employee On-boarding programs) Advantages of On the-job Training: Lower cost Greater likelihood of application of training on-the-job Disadvantages of On the-job Training: Distractions in work environment during training Potential for damage when training on actual equipment Disruption of service, or slow down of production, during training Potential safety issues 99
6 Alternatively, off-the-job training programs tend to be more costly, with less control over times and locations of program offerings, but may be necessary when the programs are required infrequently, and the expertise to deliver programs is not readily available within the organization. Advantages of Off-the-Job Training: Can use wide variety of training methods Can control training environment Large numbers of trainees can be trained at once Disadvantages of Off-the-Job Training: Can be much more costly than on-the-job training Because training environment differs from workplace, there are challenges regarding transfer of training What is most important is mixing and combining methods to best suit a particular training need and objective. Informal vs. Formal Informal learning or development programs may include: Job Shadowing: Employees observer a colleague doing their job; provides the opportunity to watch and learn Coaching: Seasoned employee work closely with another employee to develop insight, motivate, build skills, and provide support through feedback and reinforcement Mentoring: Senior member of an organization provides career support and psychological support to a more junior member of the staff Experience Based, or Self-Directed Learning: Individuals select, manage, and assess their own learning activities There is generally less cost associated with informal learning, as it often occurs throughout daily activities and interactions, and more control over times and locations when learning takes place. The nature of the learning is often related to the development of soft skills, but can also be associated with specific job organizational skill or knowledge requirements. Alternatively, formal training programs tend to be more costly, with less control over times and locations of program offerings, but may be necessary when the nature of the program content is related to obtaining professional accreditation or certification, and the expertise to deliver program content is not readily available within the organization. Comparing Formal and Informal Learning Factor Formal Learning Informal Learning Control Controlled by organization Controlled by learner Relevance Variable High Timing Delay between learning and use of knowledge Learning used immediately on-the-job Structure High structured Unstructured Outcomes Specific Not specific 100
7 Packaged Programs vs. Customized Programs Packaged programs generally are less costly, and there may or may not be more control over times and locations when learning takes place dependent on the trainer. The nature of the learning if often related to development of broad based skill and knowledge requirements, for example workplace health and safety. Advantages of Packaged Programs High quality Immediate delivery Ancillary services Potential to customize Benefits from others experience Extensive testing Often less expensive Alternatively, customized training programs tend to be very costly, with more control over times and locations of program offerings. It may be necessary when the nature of the program content is targeted to the specific needs of the organization, and the expertise to deliver program content is not readily available within the organization. Advantages of Internal Customized Programs Security & confidentiality Use organization s jargon Incorporate organization s values Use internal content expertise Understand audience Pride & credibility Important factors to consider when deciding on whether the purchase or design your own training program include: Cost of each alternative Time and expertise required to design a program Deadline (how soon do you need the training program?) Who needs training? (If a small number need training, you should consider burying; if a larger number need training you should consider designing) In Person vs Web-based vs. Hybrid Whether training takes place in-person or in a web-based format, is largely based on the geographic location of employees and the nature of the content. With the growing trend towards virtual offices and dispersed employee groups, web based training is becoming a more feasible choice and tends to be less costly. However, there are training programs, based on the nature of the content are more suited to in-person training (i.e. Harassment Investigations). Increasingly common is the use of hybrid training which utilizes both in person and web based formats. Complementary tool in order to develop your own e-learning programs: Moodle is an Open Source Course Management System (CMS), also known as a Learning Management System (LMS) or a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)
8 STEP 4: EVALUATION Increasingly businesses are evaluating the impact of training and are more focussed on the return on investment. Specifically, has the employee achieved the desired learning outcomes of the training program, and more importantly: has the training or development program improved the performance of the employee and the organization overall. The Kirkpatrick Model provides an effective framework to evaluate the effectiveness of training programs and is based on a four level model: Level: Evaluation: Level 1: Reaction Level 2: Learning Level 3: Behaviour Level 4: Results How did participants react to the program? completed participant feedback questionnaire informal comments from participants focus group sessions with participants To what extent did participants improve knowledge and skills and change attitudes as a result of the training? pre- and post-test scores on-the-job assessments supervisor reports To what extent did participants change their behaviour back in the workplace as a result of the training? completed self-assessment questionnaire on-the-job observation reports from customers, peers and participant s manager What organizational benefits resulted from the training? financial reports quality inspections interview with managers or clients For further information, tools, templates regarding evaluating the effectiveness of your training and development programs, please refer to: Canadian Society of Training & Development Investing in People Evaluation Tools, templates provide evidence of training s positive return on investment Tool 26: Training Evaluation Chart Tool 27: Knowledge Transfer Evaluation Chart 102
