  • Generation Gap – Closing the Generation Gap in the Workplace

    $100.00
    There are currently five generations in the workforce. Only a few short years ago employers who were expecting to be faced with mass retirements are now looking at accommodating workers who cannot afford to retire, or are simply healthy and happy enough they’d like to stay at work. However, the labor force continues to put in hard work and lots of strategy to find the right people to fill vacancies and to be able to serve their customers. This course examines the history and reality of the generation gap, especially for recruiters and succession planning. In it, we will explore whether defining the actual limits of each generation is most important, or whether the merits of people within the context of employment is the bigger issue. After all, understanding others helps us to understand ourselves and to manage the people that we work with. We will also explore problems, solutions, and strategies to help overcome issues of the generation gap.   Member price:  $80.00

  • The Practical Trainer

    $240.00
    Part of knowing where you are going is defining what you are doing. Training can mean different things to different people: a trainee has needs, your supervisor has expectations, and as trainers, you have objectives. The assumption that anyone who can do a job can teach another person how to do it has led to countless errors in the instruction process. Many of us have been either a victim of or a witness to this misguided belief. Trainees are most engaged by a trainer who: Has some experience to share Has something of value to offer Can provide some real examples and give them some tips Lets participants talk and share their experiences with others Throughout this course, we take a closer look at how to approach teaching individuals with an affinity for any learning style. Whether a seasoned trainer or looking to get started this course is an excellent resource to complement your existing skillset or develop your own style for more effective training.
