Week 8 EOC: 9 to 5 Movie

1. Provide an overview of the individual on-job training process.
 The job training process in the film was basically a quick overview and then they would send you to learn everything else on the job. Judy had never worked before her job at this company, and she was very taken aback by the work routine she would have to follow from then on. Violet showed her what was what but never really ensured that Judy had every task down. She pretty much had to fend for herself and learn from mistakes she made. Mistakes that could have been avoided if Violet had supervised her more carefully in case Judy had a question or needed help. 
 
2. Explain steps that are important in the four-step individual (on-job) training method:
Just like the four-step individual (on-job) training method or preparing, presenting, practice and demonstration, and follow-up coaching. Judy would have really learned her tasks better with all that extra practice and coaching. Not only would Violet have made sure that Judy knew what her job entailed, but there would have been less mistakes later on (like the printer incident). The company would be running more efficiently with the decrease of those mistakes. 
 
3. Explain additional on-job training approaches.
 Just like the four-step individual (on-job) training method or preparing, presenting, practice and demonstration, and follow-up coaching. Judy would have really learned her tasks better with all that extra practice and coaching. Not only would Violet have made sure that Judy knew what her job entailed, but there would have been less mistakes later on (like the printer incident). The company would be running more efficiently with the decrease of those mistakes. 


4. Provide an overview of the group training process.
Group training wasn't really represented in the film, but it was suggested in a couple of scenes. For example, in Judy's first day, Doralee and Roz made sure that Judy knew they were there for her if she had a question or needed help with something. This would build more efficiency between them was a group, and better their teamwork. But something they could be doing when hiring more than one employee was training them together. By training more than one new employee at the same time, it would increase their teamwork and they could rely on each if one had a question and the other could explain it a little better.





5. Review specific procedures to prepare for group training:







They could have set the date for preparation and training at the same time even if they were to be schedule and different time periods later on. Have them be familiarized with their co-workers and the other new employees they will be working with.

6. Discuss procedures to facilitate group training:
Later on, having programs and something like weekly meetings would be great group training, for the current and new employees. They would have better teamwork and communication as a group that would increase their efficiency through their jobs in the company.

7. Discuss the training evaluation process: 
 Evaluation in the training process should be detailed and specific. Trainers have pay attention to how the employees is learning the process and executing the tasks taught to her. Know their positive and negative attributes, to make sure that the negative decrease and they overall improve at an efficient pace throughout their time in the company.
