Sysdine People Resource Management

First Day on the Job

Her name is Maya, and she's nervous. Today will be her first day on the new job. It seems like this will be a really neat place to work. But, other than working for her dad during the summers when she was in high school, this will be her first job.

She's determined to do well, but she'll need to quickly learn to do things she's never done before. Like making French Fries. They've told her that fry-making will be her first assignment.

Helping Hands

Her name is Beth, and she's excited. As a shift supervisor, she truly enjoys the responsibility of training new employees and getting them off to a great start. Maya seems bright and eager to learn.

And as a trainer of new employees, Beth has a secret weapon in her corner. It's Sysdine Training Management. When Maya was hired, Sysdine instantly and automatically scheduled the training, testing, and other activities Maya would need to undertake in order to learn the job well. Sysdine saved time for Beth, and it kept any needed activities from falling between the cracks.

Learning to Move Ahead

But Sysdine Training Management has barely begun to help Beth and Maya. Beth begins by showing Maya how French Fries are made. Beth makes the fries while Maya watches. Beth later records in Sysdine the fact that this first step has been taken.

Next, Beth has Maya to study the steps involved in making fries. Sitting at the computer, Maya uses Sysdine to review a fry-making tutorial. She follows that by reviewing flash cards about preparing fries. It's all starting to make sense to her. Sysdine automatically records the fact that these two activities have been completed.

Another important step comes next. Maya uses the computer to take a multiple-choice exam in Sysdine on fry-making. When she's finished, Sysdine does the grading, and her score is instantly available. She's passed.

Wrapping It Up

Beth congratulates her, and then briefly thinks about the old days, when she and the other supervisors had to grade exams by hand. They also had to maintain records of tutorials and other training on paper documents. Keeping track of who was certified for which workstation was a paperwork nightmare.

Now, however, Sysdine's Training Tracker shows Beth and the other supervisors at a glance where each employee stands in their training for each workstation. Preparing the weekly schedule or arranging a last minute replacement is a snap with the Tracker.

The final step in Maya's training will be a performance observation checklist, in which Beth will observe Maya actually making fries. It goes well, and Maya does everything called for by the checklist. It's been a great start to her training, and she's off to a productive beginning. Next up: How to make great burgers.

Sysdine also helped Beth's company to transform its training and exam documents to a higher level of effectiveness. Before, they were dry paper documents which bored new employees to distraction. Now, they're lively and colorful. Comprehension and retention of the material has improved substantially.
