April 16, 2020
Effective trainings contribute to success of employees and the farm business.
With training, employees learn how to effectively complete their task and why it is important to the
farm. When employees have the knowledge, skills, and attitude needed to do the job right and
understand why it should be done this way it:
- saves time and avoids problems
- makes people feel important and involved, which keeps them engaged and reduces employee turnover
Develop your training skills in this hands-on w that includes brief presentations and interactive learning following a system of:
TELL: Describe the procedure and why it is important
SHOW: Demonstrate the procedure and emphasize key points.
DO: Allow the learner to try and answer any questions
