Growing Great People: Training Skills for Dairy Farmers
Become an Effective On-the-Job Trainer!
When employees have the right knowledge, skills and attitude to do the job right, it:
- Saves time
- Avoids problems
- Engages employees
- Reduces turnover
This hands-on workshop uses the following system:
TELL: describe the procedure and why it's important
SHOW: demonstrate the procedure and emphasize key points
DO: allow the learner to try to answer any questions
REVIEW: are the steps in the procedure done correctly?
After the workshop you will be able to:
· Plan for organized and effective trainings
· Make trainings meaningful to employees
· Measure and follow up to see if people really learned!
Trainings are conducted simultaneously in English and Spanish
