A training module is said to be effective only when it is clearly understood by the audience. An effective training module needs to address all the queries of individuals, suggest ways of improvements, teach them additional skills and help them deliver their level best. A training manager’s role is not only to design training modules but also ensure it is benefitting the employees. The content needs to be updated from time to time. Make sure you yourself are clear as to what is written in the training manual.

Let us go through some ways to improve training modules:

Avoid using complicated words and jargons. As an existing employee, you would know what a particular jargon means but not someone who is new to the system. Do not use unfamiliar words and phrases which are difficult for others to understand. Use simple English. Training modules need to be precise and to the point. Remember, it is a small employee training booklet and not a complete book. Employee training modules need not to be descriptive. Do not add unnecessary information to make it thick. Read the content twice before you finally get it printed. There should be no spelling or grammatical errors.

The content needs to be interesting. Use lots of diagrams, examples, case studies, comparisons and so on for readers to understand easily. There is no use of training manuals if employees do not benefit from the same. Understand, after a tiring day at work, no one likes to read a boring employee training manual.

Managers need to interact more with the team members and help them in their day to day operations. Sit with them, evaluate their performances and give them correct feedbacks. Only mere reading long pages of plain text would not make employees well equipped to deal with changes.

Effective communication goes a long way in training employees and passing on information in its desired form. Managers need to speak to their team members more often. Let employees come up with their problems and what all set of skills would ensure hundred percent performance from them. Find out what all additional skills and knowledge would make employees indispensable resources for the organization.

Employees learn maximum when they are exposed to practical situations. Let employees learn from their mistakes. Do not spoon feed your team members. “Learning by doing” is one of the best ways to train employees and they remember the learnings for a longer time. No amount of trainings would help unless and until employees are themselves serious. Managers need to encourage employees to participate in training programs, register in various online courses which would help them in their respective domains.

Internet is one of the best sources which acquaint individuals of what is new in the industry and what all skills would be in demand say two years down the line. Motivate employees to keep themselves abreast with the latest developments in the industry and competitors as well. Employees should have the liberty to speak and express their opinions. Welcome suggestions from audience.
