  • Description: Along time ago, it was decided that training on the job in the pulp and paper industry consisted of following Joe around. That was when pulp and papermaking technology was simple and slow-changing. On-the-job training (OJT) is one of the most costly types of training a mill can do. Despite its cost and importance, OJT is not done in the structured, organized and documented fashion that leads to increased productivity and safety. Presented are some benchmarks that can be used to evaluate OJT. These are: 1. New technology requires new training ideas. 2. A job Skill Profile is a training road map. 3. ELearning is economical for "knowing skills." 4. Structured OJT is required for "doing skills." 5. Standard Operating Procedure/Standard Maintenance Procedures are developed for training on best practices. 6. Training the Trainer is focused on coaching and mentoring. 7. Evaluation consists of seeing if in fact the investments are meeting objectives.
