The standard two answers that most training content providers offer when asked whether or not their material can be customized are:
Yes, we provide a fee-based facility whereby our materials can be customized to meet your specific requirements.
or
Yes, we provide many OK to Copy pages in our modules.
At Oak Training we believe that these positions actually restrict, rather than release, the benefits received from training.
The following simple examples will demonstrate how facilitating customization of our modules has enabled organizations receive the maximum impact of our training modules.
Example 1
Realizing that major change was required within their organization, a large organization decided to develop change leaders. Rather than simply sending these employees to an external training course they sourced, customized and branded our Change Leadership module using examples relevant to their own organization. By doing this all participants accepted that the learning was necessary and took ownership for their own learning.
Example 2
A second major challenge faced when training employees is to ensure that the learner feels that the materials available are adequate to tackle the substantial demands on them. Through customization of our New Manager module a growing service organization was able to effectively introduce and develop a new supervisor group.
Example 3
For training to be effective the learner must feel that the content is clear, structured and relevant to the situation in which it is to be applied. In our last example a medium sized consultancy company customized and applied our Employee Absenteeism module within an organization they had been working with for several years. As they knew this organization very well they were able to apply this knowledge and structure the training content to reflect how employees operated.
