In-House Training

28 October, 2015 - 12:53

In-house training programs are learning opportunities developed by the organization in which they are used. This is usually the second step in the training process and often is ongoing. In-house training programs can be training related to a specific job, such as how to use a particular kind of software. In a manufacturing setting, in-house training might include an employee learning how to use a particular kind of machinery.

Many companies provide in-house training on various HR topics as well, meaning it doesn’t always have to relate to a specific job. Some examples of in-house training include the following:

  • Ethics training
  • Sexual harassment training
  • Multicultural training
  • Communication training
  • Management training
  • Customer service training
  • Operation of special equipment
  • Training to do the job itself
  • Basic skills training

As you can tell by the list of topics, HR might sometimes create and deliver this training, but often a supervisor or manager delivers the training.
