As online learning or “eLearning” continues to emerge as the cornerstone of corporate training for most companies today, many organizations are looking to add efficiencies to their training programs through the use of Group or “role-based” training. The idea behind the role-based approach to training is that employees who work in similar roles are likely to have similar training needs. Given this, it can make sense to bring these employees together under a single Group that is issued a single set of training requirements to achieve a training goal.
What is Role-Based Training?
Role-based training is the term used to describe the creation and delivery of training activities based on the practical application of required skills. For example, in a healthcare setting, a role-based training exercise could train new revenue cycle employees on billing and collection processes.
For many businesses, effective role-based training is critical for streamlining business operations. It is a practical approach that allows for training in the context of a specific role while eliminating exercises that provide little or no value, given the role of the employee.
Some of the specific benefits of role-based corporate training include:
Cost-Effectiveness
Role-based training helps ensure that you are only paying for the types of training that will be benefit your company and employees, based on the specific needs of each individual or group of employees. At the same time, the role-based training approach makes it less likely that employees are spending time away from their jobs for training activities.
Enhanced Problem-Solving
A role-based approach to corporate training allows provides more opportunity to create real-world challenges that employees might encounter in their day-to-day roles. You can then measure their ability to handle these challenges and revise your training program accordingly.
Increased Camaraderie
With role-based corporate training, you create greater opportunities for collaboration and camaraderie among employees who work in the same or similar roles. The approach encourages a greater level of engagement as employees are presented with scenarios that are common to all participants and can share in current and potential future solutions.
