FAQs

What exactly is included in the SOJT system?

TKG seeks to make your organization completely self-sufficient in the use of SOJT. We offer the SOJT system for sale, including a 4-day training course to develop your Master Trainers, and delivery of all licensed training materials. Your Master Trainers will be able to conduct a 3-day training course to train and certify your own OJT Trainers (who will then train other employees.)

 Additionally, you acquire rights to license the system for your indefinite future use (with no recurring fees).

The system includes a proprietary Instructor Selection Test ® – which will help you select employees who have the best potential to become excellent OJT Trainers.

Can we get a customized SOJT instructor course?

Yes. Every SOJT Trainer Course is customized. While the course presents all the skills needed by an OJT Trainer, many of our clients prefer to leave out some units, and spend more time on others. We will modify the basic course to meet your needs.

Can we use the SOJT system for mentor training?

Yes. The primary difference is that mentor training does not require that the instructors be able to perform task analysis, write objectives, or develop and use performance tests. On the other hand, mentor training involves more trainee analysis and a greater emphasis on communications skills. Mentoring is primarily used for management training, problem-solving skills, and the like, but it is also a necessary skill for supervisors and managers who want to help employees grow beyond their present positions. The SOJT Trainer Course can be easily modified to teach mentors.

What types of organizations can use the SOJT System?

All types. It can be used in any industry or type of business. In fact, in a number of instances, after it was initially used to train OJT Trainers for production work, it was used to train OJT instructors for engineering, customer service, sales, and other white-collar jobs in the companies. It works equally well for all jobs in any company or agency.

Who will be certified after completing the course?

Those who are scheduled to become OJT Trainers, and participate fully for the first three days, earn a SOJT Trainer Course completion certificate. Master Trainers will be certified upon successful completion of the 4-day course.

What is the cost of the SOJT Training System?

The optimum delivery model depends on the specific needs of your company. TKG will be happy to assist you in evaluating your needs. Please contact us to learn more.
