Train in Safety the Easy Way with BLR’ s Building the Best Training Program: Your One-Stop Learning Resource
In safety management, the difference between success and failure is often how well workers are trained. And that’s never been truer than now.
The reasons are all around us:
Changing technology creates new hazards to guard against every day. Competition forces us to hone our workforce to the sharpest possible edge, and even one accident can put us out of the running. And where safety training once was “the right thing,” it’s now often the law. Hazardous materials, lockout/tagout, forklift safety. You name it, Uncle Sam or your state requires you to train on it.
Hiring professional trainers is an option, but an expensive one. Isn’t there an easy-to-use program that can turn any manager into a solid trainer, at minimal cost, but with maximum results?
You bet your whiteboard there is! It’s BLR’s all-in-one guide to training—Building the Best Training Program: Your One-Stop Learning Resource
Own it for just $59.95
Whether you’ve never trained in safety, or have done it for years, Building the Best Training Program will enrich your abilities. Look at all it teaches you to do:
Make training a top priority in your organization: A top-grade training program begins with a solid commitment from senior management. We’ll give you the reasons, rationales, and numbers to get it. One example: We compare the cost of the average safety training session—about $2,000, according to the National Council on Compensation Insurance—to that of a single injury accident—$10,971. That’s logic any boss can understand!
Develop the training plan. We lay out the methods to gauge your organization’s needs and choose the workers who need training … and also to decide when training will likely not be effective.
Choose the best techniques. Here are the pluses and minuses of presentation methods from classroom instruction to computer- based or online training. Then, <>Building the Best Training Program fills your toolbox with ideas for using quizzes, case studies, role-play, and other proven teaching techniques. A handy chart points you toward the blend of approaches most likely to work in your case.
Know when and how to outsource. Sometimes, calling in the professionals or buying prepackaged materials is best. We’ll describe your options and provide checklists to help you make the right decision.
Learn the 12-Step method of successful training. Great teachers aren’t born, they just learn the 12-step method of teaching. So will you … from how to introduce the topic (Step 1) to how to involve trainees through their personal experiences (Step 7) to methods of soliciting feedback (Step 12). You’ll also create the proper learning environment through a Training Day Checklist and learn how to use handouts and other aids.
Evaluate your success. Building the Best Training Program will show you how to use training expert Donald Kirkpatrick’s “Four-Level Model of Evaluation” to measure how well you did. There’s also an ROI formula for more numbers-oriented top managers. Either way, they’re likely to be pleased and, if you’ve never trained, perhaps a little surprised at how well you did!
We’ll be pleased, too … but not surprised. After all, you learned from the best. BLR’s Building the Best Training Program, that is!
