Assessments

The Learning Organization Assessment Tool provides feedback to company management and training decision makers about the state of learning within an organization. There are two assessments: one for senior management to evaluate commitment and strategic use of learning; and a practices assessment that evaluates specific learning programs and tools used by a company. Directions for use are included with each assessment. The Workforce Training Planning and Assessment Tool, an easy-to-use resource, enables organizations to develop company-wide training plans, assess training needs and prioritize needs against business goals. The tool was developed by the Workplace Learning Resource Center for business and industry.

Surveys

Surveying employees to discover what they desire in an employer can help you understand common reasons for employee turnover and low morale.

"In 2004, we purchased our first CNC Machine... crucial to our program of rapid prototyping. We had a trained operator employed to run this machine when it was received. Shortly after, our operator was lured away by the glamour of a large company and our progress was halted. With the help of WEDnetPA, we were able to have other employees trained to operate this equipment. It is now operating and making the prototypes we so desperately need to complete our engineering designs. As a small company it is difficult at times to compete in a market so saturated with large employers. The WEDnetPA program provides our staff with the training necessary and the ability to use Boehringerís best tool against competition ó the ability to work fast."
