Developing Technical Training in the Life Sciences is a 2-day seminar that addresses the unique challenges of developing and managing training in Life Sciences companies. The Life Sciences pose unique challenges to training developers.

The first day of this seminar will concentrate on providing foundational knowledge concerning training and development within the Life Sciences. Four 90 minute sessions will be presented on this first day that will guide the participant from a discussion of the role and function of the technical training function to the actual creation of the training organization. Important to this first day, are discussions of performance-based training, the fundamentals of training (jobs, duties, tasks, and steps to include performance objectives) and how human performance and training are inextricably linked. Knowing about human performance and how to apply human performance principles are crucial to designing, developing, and managing an effective technical training function.

Day 2 will continue to build the foundation by first addressing how a documentation and training analysis is conducted to identify gaps that need to be filled and the training curriculum designed. The critical issue of training materials and how Standard Operating Procedures and Work Instructions can partially fill that role is covered in some depth. Subject Matter Experts are crucial to effective training development in any technical training setting. Session three of day two will discuss how to best work with SME's to achieve the best results and also how to select and work with outside consultants if necessary.

The seminar will close with a discussion of three case studies that will showcase and make real the many concepts presented.

Throughout the seminar, activities will be presented that will reinforce all learned concepts. Every opportunity will be provided for a sharing of ideas and a discussion of the concepts presented.

Printed handouts and pamphlets will be provided to document seminar content and to provide participants with take-away material.


Why you should attend:

Training and Development has its own body of knowledge and a wide range of techniques and approaches designed to meet unique and complex training challenges. Not knowing or understanding these approaches or applications of the tenants of the profession will place any individual at a great disadvantage when attempting to solve the sometimes overwhelming problems that must be faced when implementing "world-class" training and meeting the regulatory needs of the organization.

Many training managers and training coordinators have secured their management positions because of their expertise and success in fields of study and in aspects of the business other than Training & Development such as science and engineering. Training and Development is a professional field of study as any other. Other training managers may have Training & Development experience but in other aspects of the field and not true technical training. Still others may be technical Training & Development professionals but would benefit from a fresh look at how others are tackling the difficult problems that technical training pose in Life Science applications.

This is precisely why this two-day seminar was created, to "jump start" talented and technically competent training professionals that may need more focused instruction and direction in the area of technical training in the Life Sciences. It was also developed to provide guidance to all training professionals at all skill levels in how to truly build and sustain a training organization in today's difficult corporate environment, and how to effectively identify gaps in workforce training and compliance documentation and build effective and inexpensive training materials with the tools that are readily available.

One of the most important benefits of this seminar is the achievement of an understanding of how Training & Development and compliance can be integrated to leverage the benefits of compliance to improve the performance of the workforce and the overall performance of technical operations.
