Training
Leverage Consulting pays special attention to the needs of adult learners in the workplace.
The traditional method of learning is the classroom/teacher model, which has its place, but also has several weaknesses when applied in today's corporate environment.
Competency based training is a superior approach:
- An emphasis is placed on clearly defined, job related performance standards
- The focus is placed on the ability to apply knowledge and skills
- Recognition is given to the fact that individuals learn at different paces and have unique strengths and talents (some acquire theory faster than practical skills and vice versa)
- Trainees are expected to achieve 100% mastery of the knowledge and skills. If the performance standards fit the job, then nothing less is acceptable
Leverage has extensive experience with the combining Reference and Training. Corporate knowledge is therefore transferred to the workforce.
Leverage can identify your needs for a Learning management System and help in your transition to an eLearning environment. This is done sensibly - there is no value in purchasing expensive eLearning systems for the sake of accessing a handful of glossy web sites, leaving your most important resources - the shop floor employees - out of the loop.
