The first book to detail a systematic, practical, and easily applicable approach to On-the-Job Training (OJT) Outlines a simple 6-step process that those performing OJT can easily follow to train workers to do their jobs Presents a proven approach to training workers on job skills that is truly low cost and high return-and does not require extensive documentation or long development times On-the-Job Training (OJT) is the single most used training method in organizations today. But it is also the most misused-because very few of those doing OJT are ever trained how to do it. In Hands-On Training Gary Sisson draws on his thirty-five years of experience to lay out a simple, systematic approach to OJT that can be understood and applied by anyone in any organization - managers, line or staff supervisors, employees and both internal and external human resource and training professionals. Using the acronym ''HOT POPPER'' to help readers remember the parts of the process, Hands-On Training (HOT) outlines six easy steps: P-Prepare for training O-Open the session P-Present the subject P-Practice the skills E-Evaluate the performance R-Review the subject Within each of the steps are techniques that allow the trainer to apply the system to virtually any job or skill. Hands On Training presents a universal training method that needs little, if any modification to fit different jobs. Its emphasis on structured OJT-one of the few types of training that is theoretically sound and at the same time may be fully integrated into the work place-makes it ideal for training people in applied skills, such as manual sensory skills, procedure following, and problem solving. Truly low-cost, high return training, Hands-On Training is perfect in low budget situations where an organization lacks funds to develop a more formalized training system. It requires very few resources, doesn't require special developmental efforts, and can be totally administered by the workers themselves without creating an extra burden on management.

Don’t Leave On-the-Job Training to Chance People become experts at their job by learning while doing. But when your employees need to develop a new skill, how do you ensure they all receive the same experience if a trainer isn’t leading and guiding them? Most on-the-job training programs leave learners to sink or swim with whomever is overseeing their work. One worker may excel with a mentor who allows her to take charge of what she learns—while a second may get someone who uses the opportunity to offload paperwork and other administrative tasks. Learning While Working: Structuring Your On-the-Job Training shows you how to provide the focus and direction needed to track on-the-job progress and build a pipeline of better-skilled workers. Author Paul Smith combines real insight into building a structured program for project managers at the Waldinger Corporation with in-depth interviews of experienced learning and development professionals. Discover how a well-designed structured on-the-job training program can be your company’s talent development answer to a Swiss Army knife. This book doesn’t prescribe a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, it will help you prepare a tailored, sustainable structured on-the-job training program for your organization. Included are practical tips to set defined roles for the learner, mentor, and trainer; create a tracking tool to clearly document skill growth; and ensure organizational learning gets put to use. On-the-job training won’t replace all employee development happening in the classroom, online, or through peer sharing of best practices. But by bringing order to these often disconnected and siloed efforts, you can fortify the learning structure that your organization needs to succeed.
