The Industrial Channel – Industrial Channel presents a new and unique way to highlight a region’s manufacturing companies and education facilities. It provides the means for manufacturers to not only showcase their products but also to allow them to determine other manufacturers within their region who may serve as potential clients or vendors.

This channel also serves as a portal for students and job seekers to learn of training opportunities within their locale. It offers employers the ability to communicate directly with those training facilities to coordinate job training and interface with job candidates. This availability of career information will serve as an inspiration to our area students. This site will serve to not only educate students but also to inspire them regarding their career training and their chosen careers.

Overall, The Industrial Channel is a great place for employers, prospective employees and students to avail themselves of vital employment information right in their own backyard.

    PTI1007 - Structured On-the-Job Training Supports ISO/AS/IATF Process Training Requirement Compliance

    9:00 am-9:45 am
    2017-08-08

    (Mountain Time) The philosophy behind, and development/implementation of, structured on-the-job training; how any employer can benefit from the PROTECH© system of managed human resource development in more that just the training area; building related technical instruction/structured on-the-job training programs and supporting them for employers across all industries. ISO/AS/IATF and similar quality programs have a requirement that: standardize work processes guide quality, auditable task performance; training matches the process; training is documented for each worker; and a system is in place to ensure all are up to date and in sync. Program supports ISO/AS/IATF compliance requirements for “knowledge(expertise)” capture. In addition to hiring, structured on-the-job training and performance evaluation instruments, PROTECH produces reports such as Technical Document (best practice for each task), Qualification/ Certification Checklists and more. One-revision updates all materials! Efforts like Lean, Kaisen, continuous improvement strategies all can render a lesser model obsolete and non-compliant in a few months. This model provides the lacking support needed to employers who want to easily and cost-effectively establish and maintain compliance. Approx. 45 minutes
