    (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 than just the training area; building related technical instruction/structured on-the-job training partnerships for employers across all industries and how it can become an cost-effective, cost-efficient and highly credible apprenticeship. Program supports ISO/AS/IATF compliance requirements for “knowledge(expertise)” capture, and process-based training and record keeping. When partnering with economic development agencies, public and private career and technical colleges and universities, this provides the most productive use of available grant funds and gives employers-employees/trainees and the project partners the biggest win for all. This model provides the lacking support needed to employers who want to easily and cost-effectively host an apprenticeship.  Approx. 45 minutes

    The Crash of 2008 and the Covid-19 Pandemic have caused disruptions to not just businesses, but the entire economy. Changes in company ownership can change in business strategy and training project support. During these disruptions, several Proactive Technologies projects were set-up for employers and ready to implement, or implementation started but paused temporarily, some indefinitely, as internal project knowledge and advocacy dissipated. Employee and management contacts were either laid-off, reassigned or retired. The significant value of what was established remains and Proactive Technologies saved each company’s data set up that point. Here is a chance to discover what was established, where we left off and what it would take to restart the program. The philosophy behind, and development/implementation of, structured on-the-job training; the many benefits from the PROTECH® © system of managed human resource development in more than just the training area; examples of projects with manufacturing and manufacturing support companies (aerospace, Tier-1 and 2 automobile suppliers, chemical companies, facilities maintenance companies, rubber/polymer manufacturers); compliance support provided by the system for ISO/AS/IATF and Nadcap quality programs as well as OSHA safety requirements; and how many structured on-the-job training programs were, or can be, unregistered apprenticeships or registered as apprenticeships.
