Accelerated Transfer of Expertise^® System

For decades career centers, community colleges, technical colleges, and universities have teamed with Proactive Technologies, Inc.^® to provide the PROTECH^® system of managed human resource development^© to their valued clients. It is a logical, easily implemented and cost-effective and efficient system of worker development utilizing the accelerated transfer of expertise™ system. An educational partner is not necessary to set-up and implement this worker development system for clients. However, this approach ensures that when the client is ready to partner with a related technical instruction provider all available resources are applied in an accurate, job relevant and efficient manner.

Proactive Technologies’ technical consultants job/task analyze each task of the targeted job classifications for “best practice” performance using the client’s existing subject matter experts – integrating any available process documents and specifications into the data set to link compliance. Safety requirements are included to bring safety to where it applies rather than leave it as a general concept. Furthermore, this analysis captures the expertise and tribal knowledge of existing expert workers before they retire or leave with all of this wealth, converting it into tools to develop additional experts and retain/grow this asset.

Structured on-the-job training materials are created to match the employer’s job requirements in a “rapid response” design with legal defensibility and ISO/IATF/AS quality program and OSHA compliance in mind. The PROTECH^® software system^© automatically generates immediately usable documents for each step of the human resource development process, which dramatically expands the project scope and reduces project costs. These include:

• Hiring and Management Materials: Job Descriptions, Job Profile Analysis, Job/Employee-Specific Performance Appraisal;
• Pre and Post-Hire Job-Specific Assessments;
• On-the-Job Training Outlines and Plans;
• On-the-Job Training Checklists (Complete for New-hires; Customized for Incumbents);
• Technical Procedures for Job Performance Aids (Simple or Illustrated);
• One revision updates all materials!

Proactive Technologies sets-up the structured on-the-job training, manages its implementation (so businesses can focus on business), maintains and revises the data when it changes and provides monthly reporting and easy to read charts so management can track each worker’s progress toward full job mastery. No need for additional staff or disruptions to scheduled work – this training infrastructure “structures the unstructured, informal and ad hoc training activities already underway to made it deliberate, documented, easy to measure and easy to continual improve.”

CERTIFICATE OF JOB MASTERY™ Program and CERTIFICATE OF TASK MASTERY™ Program

Structured on-the-job training leads to a “Certificate of Job Mastery,” documenting: 1) that each worker has demonstrated competency of the required core skills and abilities through learning to master the task-based, on-the-job training; and that 2) the worker further demonstrated mastery and correct performance of all employer-specific tasks required of the trainee’s job classification. Records are collected, reported and archived to recognize each individual’s increasing worker value and capacity. Proactive Technologies, Inc. provides other project-related products and services, including:

• Workforce training program development, management and support – locally, regionally, statewide, nationally and internationally;
• Existing work process and training program conversion;
• Program integration with other credentialing programs;
• Work process design and improvement documentation;
• Client’s data conversion to electronic formats;
• Turnkey program setup and support (the client’s data installed on the client’s licensed PROTECH software), with customization available;
• In-house PROTECH trainer training and support.

A complete turnkey structured on-the-job training system can be set-up and operational within as little as 2 weeks! This approach has worked well with state and local economic development agencies seeking to relocate or replicate operations from state-to-state or from one country to another. Proactive Technologies has helped clients, partnering with economic development agencies, to expand their enterprise and build jobs locally.

PROTECH provides many other worker development tracking and reporting applications.  Natural extensions of an established structured on-the-job training program include:

• Lean manufacturing and process improvement;
• Competency or Hybrid apprenticeship programs – detailed, structured on-the-job training for youth, adult, dislocated and disadvantaged trainees , clearly aligned with job-relevant related technical instruction;
• Effective work-based training/certification for emerging occupations – for new-hires and incumbents;
• Development of training standards for tracking the effect on the employer’s bottom line;
• Internships and cooperative education materials development and program support;
• Economic development – assistance in relocating or replicating job classifications to support expanding small to large organizations – any industry type.

Experience the power of the “accelerated transfer of expertise™ system.” Raise worker capacity, work quality and quantity, increase safe performance and compliance (ISO/IATF/AS quality programs and OSHA) while lowering the internal costs of training. Realize a higher and sustained return on worker investment…faster!
