Coaching and Training on the Job

Are you responsible for training employees on the job? The role of an on-the-job trainer or supervisor requires a specific set of skills that can vary greatly from formal classroom trainers. You need to learn how to break a skill down into steps, create rapport quickly, identify skill gaps and coach individuals with clear, specific, behavior-based feedback.

Imagine if you could gain this valuable skill set while learning to be more comfortable as a supervisor, manager or leader. Think about the possibilities of reducing stress while becoming more effective at coaching others to higher levels of performance. These essential skills serve your organization to get better results while providing a foundation that will serve you throughout your career.

This course can be applied to the Master Trainer Certificate.
