Professional Development Program Guide

Author(s): Jennifer Perrier

The pursuit of training is often left to the initiative of the individual employee. This is a mistake – management staff must be involved and held accountable for training opportunity development and delivery. A carefully evaluated and documented roster of training options greatly facilitates the training planning process. Use this "Professional Development Program Guide" to:

  • Document courses, events, and other development activities available to staff.
  • Arrange opportunities by function or skill type area for easy navigation.

Build a program guide to act as a quick reference for both you and your employees when setting out development agendas.


This downloadable tool is associated with the research note, "Formalized Training Builds Skills Flexibility."
