Training
Workforce Needs
In order for you to remain competitive in the global ma
rket place, your employees must become "Life Long Learners" The National Association of Manufacturers lists as it's public policy position on the goal of Life Time Learning "Education and training do not stop once an individual graduates, completes a training or certification program, or attains a job. Workers need access to lifelong learning and training programs to enable them to attain, maintain, or upgrade skills to adapt to changing workforce needs. Job training and education programs should be streamlined, coordinated and supported to help facilitate workers’ professional development and ongoing lifelong learning."
The Payoff
NAM cites cold hard statistics when promoting the benefits of worker training: the"Employment and Quality in the Workplace" study (Cappelli and Wright, University of Pennsylvania), for every 10-percent increase in the number of hours of training, a 2-percent increase in productivity was realized by the companies evaluated in the study."
Yet, while an increasing number of companies provide their employees with the training and professional skills necessary to stay competitive, many others are reluctant to invest in training solutions. They fear loss of production time on the factory floor or the loss of a trained employee to a higher paying job.
