The importance of Employee Training
Amid this ongoing remote work culture, certain things have to be focused a lot more upon. One of them is the need to properly train the existing employees, as well as the new ones. Training is that one step even big players tend to miss, often proving in lower employee retention rates. Formally training the new employees help structure them and make them familiar to their organization?s vision, mission, and work processes, while training the existing staff enhances engagement and refreshes their knowledge of the business. Once the employees are trained, it makes them well-acquainted with the company's working, reducing the chances of causing any distress to the organization. Investing in training an employee would also save a company huge amounts of time with lesser supervision & monitoring. Employees also gain confidence as they now are familiar with whatever the company does and what their job role is. To really make remote culture work, the learning & development strategies need to change and get modified.
What will make remote work culture, work?
Customized Learning Experience
Among different employees there can be a skill gap, and one size definitely does not fit all. A blended learning experience, customized for each individual differently would help span the gap and cover the tracks. To get a hang of each individual's skill gaps, skill gap analysis plays a major role. It helps identify the training needs of different employees. After the skills have been mapped, training exercises can be allocated among the employees based on their requirements. Employees, at their own pace, can choose the courses as well. This asynchronous competency-based learning helps employees to learn and get trained in their own sweet time, giving organizations better outputs and driving the best results.
Competency-based learning encourages individualized learning. This accommodates various learning techniques and levels of engagement. It allows the learner to decide the time they want to invest in the learning. It also encourages positive competitiveness among the employees, accelerating the growth of an organization. These learning programs can be provided through LMS/Video Applications for an employee to create an effective learning experience for them.
Easy Access to Learning
Employees need to have an easy access to a company's learning courses for self-paced training. For this, virtual content libraries play a very important role. Companies can provide this content to their employees with the help of LMS Platforms ; and after the completion of every course, they can provide their employees with assessments to virtually witness how far they have come in their learning journey.
Specialized Training & Performance Measurement
Online specialized assessments play a very important role in shaping the learning of employees. One can train for a thousand new courses, but measuring performances help align the perfect training styles for the ones suited the best for them. Reviewing employee's performances during their training can motivate them to be more productive and this gives managers a chance to have a one-on-one session with their employees for better engagement and boosted morale.
Here, 360 Degree Feedback would come in handy as the employees can be anonymously reviewed and their areas of expertise & improvements can come to light. These online surveys within various hierarchies of an organization help employees know themselves better in terms of their skills.
The feedback process gives employees an opportunity to provide anonymous feedback to a colleague that otherwise would be uncomfortable to give. The Feedback receivers get access to insights into how others see them, and how should they develop their behaviors & skills to excel at their jobs.
