Training – for some of us, it’s a word we hate to hear. It means boring PowerPoints, information we already know, and time taken out of our busy day. But training is needed – across every industry and job level. So, how can we reconcile this disparity? One solution that companies rarely think of is project management. That’s right, project management! How, you might ask, will that help with training? And with making employees not dread training? The answer is relatively simple – project management ensures you train the RIGHT employees on the RIGHT material at the RIGHT time. Read below to learn more about 3 ways project management helps train your employees:

Training can be overwhelming when given all at once, with no practical examples to go through. Project management makes sure this doesn’t happen to your employees by training at each step of a project. This way, questions can be asked about real-life examples and answers given instantly. Additionally, the skills learned this way ensure that you have the skills needed internally to overcome future challenges (for more information on this visit our previous blogs)

Just as buy-in on a new process or technology is important, so is ensuring everyone has a sense of ownership and responsibility. Training is a great way to achieve this. It shows people how important their job is, how it plays into the bigger picture, and gives them the knowledge to do it well. Project management promotes ownership and responsibility by providing training that addresses all concerns. This creates an atmosphere of value, and helps employees WANT to do a good job

Project management and training truly go hand-in-hand. When timed strategically, both of these aspects bring benefit to everyone involved. The examples given above are a few of many ways they work together to enhance the value of a company and its employees. Whether the training needed is big or small, project management will help you determine the specific type of training you really need and how to best execute it. So, take our advice: don’t provide the same old boring training that nobody remembers. Instead bring a project manager in to provide engaging, effective training that comes to the RIGHT people for the RIGHT material at the RIGHT time.
