We want to perform training primarily when there is a need to close skill gaps, learn new skills, or adapt to changes that impact employees' roles or company goals. Effective times to perform training include:
- When employees need to learn a new skill, such as the introduction of new technology or updated procedures.
- When performance evaluations reveal deficiencies or skill gaps.
- During onboarding, to prepare new hires effectively.
- When compliance regulations change or new laws require training.
- To improve performance in specific roles or prepare employees for additional responsibilities.
- Periodically, based on ongoing needs assessments to ensure alignment with organizational goals and employee development.
Overall, training should be continuous but targeted to specific needs identified through thorough analysis to maximize impact on performance and engagement.
