How Do You Create A Training Manual In Word?
Taking time to write out an employee training manual may seem like a laborious task. Using Microsoft Word 2007’s features makes part of the development process easier. Before you begin to write, do some planning. Decide what tasks your employees need to accomplish and what can be written down to help them. Plan on wear you will be using the training manual–in a face-to-face class or a self-guided tour. Once you have an idea of what type of manual you are going to need, here are some of the features you can use to make your idea a reality. Use the outlining feature in Word to create a multilevel list of the tasks your employees need to learn. This process will help you decide how long your manual is going to be and help with breaking down jobs into smaller chunks, which are easier to explain to a new employee. To use Word’s outline feature, you start with a blank document and select the “Home” tab. In the Paragraph group, there are three buttons: bullets, numbers and multilevel lists.
