Hi Van -- you could play a part in establishing a "buddy" system and/or mentoring program. As you know, people learn the most about their jobs when they actually DO them, and they also learn the most from people who have done it already. It's the tacit knowledge that is key -- get these new people paired up with people who already know the job well. Shadowing is a great learning tool.

For someone who is new to role, with no experience in a specific line of business, should they be allotted six months to learn / perform their role and responsibilities?

Depends on the business...why are they hiring people who need that much time to ramp up? Is the business willing to wait that long for job proficiency? This really might be a hiring issue.

Greetings from Bangladesh !!
as i write to you leaders of the seven South Asian countries SAARC are meeting here in dhaka Bangladesh to decide how to move away from the poverty ridden issues of the region ( 1.5 billion or rather 30% of world population).

Comming back to my issues I am working with an NGO who counduct many training programmes for their micro ccredit programmes for the poor.

They wish to conduct level 3& 4 of Kirpatrick training evaluation model. I need help .

Has anyone conducted such programmes ? Do you have some details which you could share with me. Since these are micro credit organisations funds are limited but have a desire to go ,professional.

Will appreciate any help provide ?

Thanks

Isn't the physical and observable betterment of the people they train be measured and not the
training???
