On-the-Job Trainer – Open Training Session 2025
The diploma has national recognition from Labour Ministry and Education Ministry
Foreword
On-the-job training is a common means of training or retraining workers and the practice may seem simple and straightforward. Doing it effectively however requires more thought and preparation than simply having someone follow an experienced worker around and watch what they’re doing.
Teaching is a specialist skill in itself; unless the trainer has the skills and knowledge to train, this would mean that the training will not be done to a sufficient standard, even the trainer is the best specialist on the production field.
Over the years, various techniques and practices have evolved that pass on the skills and knowledge of a trainer in a manner that leads an inexperienced trainee to really absorb the information being taught. On-the-job training thus becomes less a haphazard show-and-tell and more a real transfer of information.
