Get your skills spend done before the end of Dec

/ Skills Development / By

The mad skills development spend rush is very avoidable

SPEND LESS MONEY ON SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND GET BETTER RESULTS

It’s coming to the end of your financial year and you’ve either not done enough about skills spend or you’ve done nothing.    If you’ve done nothing and your year end is December then you’ll struggle to get learners and the like sorted before South Africa goes on holiday – which is no later than the 16th of December.

If you do manage to find the necessary people to train it will cost you A LOT OF MONEY, especially if you need disabled people.

If your year end is February then you’re still in trouble because you are going to pay a lot of money at the last minute.  It can be done and there are no shortage of service providers that can help you. Many of them are very respectable companies.

The best solution is formalise your informal training by virtue of an Internship for Internal people.  Something we call an INTRATERNSHIP.   The training exists in every organisation.  But it’s piecemeal and delivered by people who often don’t understand that they are imparting vital information. 

The INTRATERNSHIP programme is inward looking and focuses on training that’s vital for your organisation.  It looks to reinforce the skills and knowledge that exist within the organisation.   It’s supplementary to external training. 

WHY INTRATERNSHIPS

We are still exploring all the benefits of the programme.  Amongst these benefit are

  1. INTRATERNSHIPS create a training and learning culture within the organisation.  Everyone is a trainer and recipient of the training
  2. INTRATERNSHIPS teach staff efficiencies that perhaps only a few know about
  3. INTRATERNSHIPS lead to continuity, even in times of change.  An INTRATERNSHIP programme spreads knowledge across the organisation.  It reduces silos of knowledge.  If critical people leave then stakeholders can be assured that tasks can continue
  4. INTRATERNSHIPS become the industry standard.  Once a person has completed the programme they are awarded a certificate co-signed by the organisation and RISE BUSINESS CONTINUITY. To quote one of our clients “We are the first company in our industry to implement the programme, in two years’ time our all our competitors will be following suit.  We will have set the industry standard by then”.
  5. INTRATERNSHIPS concentrate on internal knowledge and training and cost a fraction of external training.
  6. ORGANISATIONS get to ultimately control the quality of the information being imparted.
  7. INTRATERNSHIPS are not limited to a class of employee.  Every employee is able to take part in the process..

AND THE BLACK ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT BENEFIT

Each INTRATERN is regarded as a CATEGORY C Intern.  This means that salaries of each black person on the programme are regarded as skills’ spend.  We know that we are able to attract 16 points on the DTICs generic BEE scorecard if there are disabled black employees in the organisation. 

Speak to us now.  We can save you a lot of money and create a strong learning culture in your organisation at the same time.
