Customised training: definition

Customised in-company training courses are training courses specially designed to meet the problems encountered within a company. They have very specific training methods and objectives. The programme of these training courses is established according to the expectations and shortcomings of the employees and enables them to improve their performance rapidly. These courses can be provided by an external training organisation, which draws up the programme in collaboration with the company's managers, or directly by a member of the company. Tailor-made training is part of an ongoing training programme to enable employees to improve their skills.

Why customised in-company training?

Tailor-made training is the most suitable training method for training employees in new services or familiarising them with a new product. More targeted than a general training course, it enables employees to be supported in a company transformation process, such as CSR or energy transformation. It allows for rapid skills development. It is a real springboard for achieving strategic, managerial and operational objectives. It allows us to focus on concrete issues and to meet the specific needs of the company's stakeholders.

The advantages of customised training

The advantages of in-company professional training are numerous. It is a customisable solution: the training project is established according to the real needs of the employees. It is possible to define all the terms and conditions (access methods, face-to-face or distance learning, duration of the training, planning of the training session adapted to the employees, etc.). In-company training reduces the amount of time employees are away from work and saves the company time and money (no travel or accommodation costs). In addition, it is easier to monitor the impact of the training. Each trainee can be accompanied individually, even after the training.

This is not always the case with short training courses given by a trainer in a training organisation, as the company's managers do not always have access to the content of all the training modules. Tailor-made training is also an asset for the security of confidential company data. This data can be used to illustrate concepts and for simulation purposes without being disclosed to a third party. Tailor-made in-company training is generally more beneficial for employees. They can be used to reinforce existing skills, to develop them further or to make them more effective in their jobs. Finally, these courses are an asset for recruitment: they are highly appreciated by employees who want to develop a real career in the company, and they make it easier for employees to learn even if they are not mobile.
