▫While waiting for classroom, begin work experience
▫Morning classroom > afternoon work experience
•Value added experience / training•Trainees see work environment first hand
for extended period•Employers can “try before buy”
Reduces hiring risk = good R.O.I.•Coordinate with UI staff regarding benefits
29
Internships
•Higher level tasks vs. Work Experience•Earn academic credit•May be simultaneous to classroom training•May be specific to certain employer’s
process•More intensive
▫Value added▫Higher skills work experience▫Defined objectives
•Coordinate with UI staff regarding benefits
30
On-the-job training• Employers will track candidate• Streamline employer portion of paperwork
▫ Employer must document skill attainment (and you have a process that makes reimbursements based on documented skill attainment during the OJT).
▫ Be sure each client has a personalized skill gap analysis for the position they are entering in their file.
▫ Training plans include: Description of the method of training and how it will
be delivered. Estimated number of hours for each skill. Job description. Start and completion dates. Clearly state the supervision that will be provided and
who is responsible.
