Consider the Rockwell Collins case study: complete the following: 1) a program objective, 2) Suggestions for program design, 3) Suggestions on delivery method for training, 4) Recommendations on who should deliver the training.
1) The Rockwell training program objectives would be continuous improvement of skills of its employees. The two major focus objectives of the program would be accessibility and availability of training i.e. all employees at multiple locations can participate in training (accessibility) and are able to attend these training (availability) balancing their work commitments.
2) We have following suggestions for program design:
3) Apart from the classroom led training, Rockwell should introduce self-paced training sessions through online content. This could be in the form of recorded classroom sessions or animated videos regarding specific training subject. This would help to resolve the problem of training not being available at all locations and massive cancellation (28%) by attendees. Further, for some specific sessions, Rockwell can fly in trainers to specific locations from Cedar Rapids.
4) The instructor for training depends on the type of training. If the training is on a general topic such as communication skills then Rockwell can consider having external trainers that are master in the subject or have online self-paced content that helps employees improve their communication skills. On the other hand, if training topic is something internal i.e. best practices at work etc. then it must be taken by senior employees at Rockwell. For other locations, recorded sessions can be played OR the instructor flies to other locations and delivers sessions.
