Whether your company is large or small, capturing the knowledge and expertise of your employees is important for long-term growth. We always say that our employees are our greatest asset at RoviSys. This is true not only because we've invested in their career growth, but also because of the invaluable experience that they have gained working with many different technologies, industries, and people. It's just as important to create a training program to share what you've learned as a company as it is to convey company policies, procedures, and methologies. At RoviSys, we've put together a Continuing Education program to address our training needs. We use the GrandView Training module to capture the information in the form of curriculums and courses which are then offerred to employees to complete.
Like so many other things at RoviSys, the training program has been built using a distributed process in which many employees have contributed. A coordinator is appointed to develop a curriculum and assign teachers who, in turn, develop the courses. The knowledge capturing takes place at the course development stage since materials for the course must be gathered to add to the course. An eletronic test is created that is used to measure a student's understanding of the course information. Students can take a course once it has been completed and administrators can view student course status and results.
Not only has the training program been successful in protecting our greatest assets (employees), it has helped generate new business as we have been able to show our expertise to customers. Ultimately, a training program is a big key to running an efficient organization and the GrandView Training module can help you get there. Look for more details on the GrandView Training module features in an upcoming post.
