Employee training specialists plan and organize instructional activities.

Employee training specialists guide employees through exercises and workshops. They help create, plan, and run training programs for businesses and organizations. Training programs may take place online, in classrooms, or in training facilities.

Trainings may cover:

• Employee skill improvement
• Leadership development
• New employee orientation
• Reducing environmental impact

Employee training specialists evaluate how effective training sessions are. They may make adjustments to training programs. They also evaluate the quality of the teaching done by instructors. Instructors who do not meet standards take classes to improve their teaching skills. Specialists develop guides to help instructors be consistent in their teaching procedures. Many employee training specialists also teach classes and conduct training themselves.

New training techniques are constantly being developed. Training specialists must keep their knowledge of these techniques up to date. They attend meetings and seminars to learn about new ideas. They also read magazines and journals.
