How are workplace learning programs usually implemented?
A. The most successful programs require voluntary buy-in from both employer and employee, are custom-designed and incorporated into the employee’s regular tasks: • Training programs can be offered in-house, either through training an employee to deliver programs, or by bringing a professional educator in. Sometimes employees are sent out to learn basic skills through post-secondary educational institutions. • Documents and manuals used in the workforce form the basis for each lesson, so the training is extremely relevant to each job. • The Canadian Government has developed an Essential Skills framework to help employers implement workplace learning programs.
