Education and Training

If parity is acceptable then the Bronze and Silver Workbooks will be the same at Health & Safety and Knowledge Skills. This in effect means that everyone in the Design specialisation will be at the Silver Level as a minimum for H&S and Knowledge.

 

It is recommended that the same basic Training Design principles be used for both the Practical Skills and the Knowledge Skills during the Research phase so as to determine the Training Objectives and Subjects to be covered. Furthermore these Objectives will then be sub-divided across each of the three different types of manufacturing plants the Project will cover, i.e.

The information collected by the Working Party will be in agreement with the companies Management Team and will investigate what source material is available and what current training methods are used.

It is expected site interviews with key staff will also be necessary from top to bottom to find out the main areas of concern and priorities the training should address.

 

It may also be necessary to develop a questionnaire to increase the coverage of the information collected. This will be decided by the Working Group to determine if it will add value to what has already been obtained.

 

It is estimated that the Working Group meet for the first time for a full day to determine the Programme outline and relevant Sections the Workbook will cover at each Level.

 

The Documentation for the Health & Safety has been enclosed, as a guide to the basic format in which the information should be provided.

The Training Design for this part of the Programme needs to be conducted across Members Sites and Factories and cover the following generic categories of Manufacturing Plant.

It is envisaged that at least two sites from each should be consulted.

 

 

The Design process will follow a similar exercise to that carried out above and will be sub-divided where appropriate into the same following categories.
