19th POST- STATE SIX (6) TRAINING APPROACHES UNDER EMPLOYEE TRAINING PROGRAM UNDER SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION PHASE

State six(6) training approaches under employee training program under system implementation phase.

Virtually any successful system implementation requires that considerable attention be devoted to employee training. In some cases new employees must be hired and trained. In other cases, existing employees must be taught to work with new forms, reports, and procedures.

In many cases it is best to retrain an existing employee. These are several reasons for this:

ü  Recruiting costs relating to hiring a new employee are avoided.

ü  Existing employees are already familiar with the firm’s operation.

ü  Employee morale is often enhanced, especially in cases where the new position would be a promotion for an existing employee.

In addition, a number of training approaches are available to the company, including

Ø  Hiring outside training consultants

Ø  Using training manuals

Ø  Using videotape presentations

Ø  Using audiotape presentations

Ø  Using training seminars

Ø  Using individualized hand-on instruction

Ø  Using computer-assisted training
