Jedi Industries wants to use a training system that is individualised, including individual performance and a great deal of time and research. Which training system would you recommend for the company and why would you commend this system? (10).
I would recommend to use competency based training system . This will ideal training system which is individualised including individual performance and requires a great deal of time and research.
Competency Framework is designed by every top performing organization as this clearly depicts the level of skills required to excel in a position.
Jedi must focus on designing a competency Framework for each job profile and at each hierarchical level.
Then the next step is assessment of employees and scoring them on each skill which is mentioned in the the competency Framework. Various consulting firms can also be approached for such tasks as they have experts and well defined talent management process.
Once the individual assessment is done each employee must be reviewed , such assessment will usually consist of various tools (mainly simulation based exercise) which will give an insight into each employee's performance. Thus we can find the Areas of development of each employee and accordingly plan their training. Training can be given by hiring expert coaches or managers wo hold expertise in the identified skills (which were identified after assessment for each employee)
According to me the main task while planning a training is identifying the skills and areas in which training is to be given , as wrong analysis will waste a lot of money and valuable time which will affect productivity. So if we invest in training it shouldn be assured that it is invested at the right place .
