At production we always encounter the changing composition of workforce resulted in reducing the no. of experienced employees, growing percentage of contract workers and new hires with little work experience.

Hence an effective training management system becomes a necessity for companies seeking to maintain quality production.

According to FDA, it is imperative for the companies to allocate certain no. of hours in employee training. So the Pharma fraternity has started paying attention towards having an effective training management system. Here are the methods by which you can enhance your training initiatives:

• Formation of team from your staff to oversee employee training

With this above mentioned guideline you can integrate your employee training into your company’s day-to-day activities. Deploying an effective training management system will help you to automate the whole process like planning, organizing, scheduling employee training programs, taking employee feedback, easy documentation with readymade templates, and eLibrary for storing all related documents in digital formats, LMS (learning management system) which help the employees to study as per their convenience added with email integration, notifications, Cloud and mobility.
