Plant Safety Training

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

A plant is a very dangerous place to work if your employees are not careful or they’re unfamiliar with the different hazards in their work environment.  It’s important to teach your employees how to avoid injuries in the work place because this is not only beneficial to your employees but to your company as well. At ITC Learning, we believe that work related accidents can be avoided and our plant safety training program will educate your employees about the different safety rules and regulations. With our plant safety training program in place, your employees will become more alert and pay better attention to their surroundings while working.

We have a variety of safety training courses to suit the needs of your facility.  Our safety classes range from welding and cutting safety to personal protective equipment, fall protection and many other subjects.  These courses are a great way to make sure that your employees are aware of the various safety precautions and help keep them from getting injured.

ITC Learning can set-up an ongoing plant safety training program to remind your employees about the different safety topics. This way your employees will always be aware of what to do in case of an accident or injury. Another way to make sure your employees are aware of the safety rules is to hire a manager to enforce your safety rules and regulations. They should either be knowledgeable about all the different safety rules or you can utilize ITC Learning’s plant safety training program to educate them.

Updating your Manufacturing Training Program

Friday, February 12th, 2010

The fundamentals of manufacturing rarely change, however, the equipment and software used does. Keeping up with the latest news and development in the manufacturing industry is important. But, you should know the right updates to apply to your manufacturing training program or work with an experienced organization that does. By updating your training program with the latest information and procedures, you will ensure that your employees are skilled at using the appropriate equipment and software.

At ITC Learning, we believe that revisions to training tools should happen on a regular basis, whether annually or biannually, to keep your employees up-to-date with all the latest procedures. Some employees are afraid of change, but ITC Learning’s manufacturing program will make your updated training program a seamless experience for your staff. We will update your training program with little to no disruption to the productivity of your company. We have self-paced online manufacturing classes that allow your employees to become familiar with the updated techniques and procedures.

You’ll know that your training program needs to be updated when:

  • Your company is using antiquated equipment that has decreased/slowed down productivity
  • Your company is the only one not using the new and proven techniques, procedures  and software
  • You are 10 years behind technology advances
  • You are no longer competitive with other manufacturing plants

If you have realized that two of the factors mentioned above are true, your company needs an updated training program. ITC Learning can work with you to review your training program to help you see what needs to be added and removed from your current program. With an updated training program in place you can regain that competitive edge. In addition, it can make a huge difference in productivity and profits.

Creating Training Materials

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Training materials are an important part of any industrial training, maintenance training, manufacturing training, mechanical training, or plant training course. By providing your employees with training materials, you are giving them the information they need to become better workers as well as show them what is expected of them.

We are experts at creating industrial training, maintenance training, manufacturing training, mechanical training, and plant training materials for your company. When you work with us, we’ll work closely with you to assess your company and the type of equipment you use and the products you manufacture. Once this has been completed, we’ll collaborate with you to decide what things are should be included and which ones you might want to do without. For instance, we’ll include information on the type of protective clothing to wear and the procedures to use when operating or repairing machinery. Our training materials will also include diagrams of certain machines that might be hard to understand. This will help employees to see how certain machines are put together and how they work. We can also create a step by step guide on training for the machines your company uses. This will help your employees understand what machine does what and what training is needed to operate different machines.

We can also create training materials on the actual programs that you use to operate the different machines. And if you have programs that operate different machines, we create training materials for those programs, so your employees know how to operate the different programs. This is important because if you have a machine that goes down they can also check the systems to make sure that everything is running correctly in them as well as everything on the machine. At ITC Learning, we are experts at designing and developing training materials for your online classes.
