How To Create Job Aids That Support Learners In The Workplace – Recording

Job aids are simple, clear instructions for doing a particular task.  They tend to use graphics and only a few key words.  Designed well and used purposefully they remind people how to complete tasks correctly and help avoid workplace mistakes.

But Job Aids are not a substitute for training, so when and how do we create them so that they become a valuable resource.

Expect to Discover (but not limited to):

• What is a Job Aid and when should they be used?
• Different type of Job Aid and which work best for what.
• Strategies for making sure Job Aids get used – aligning with managers
• Gathering information – Ideal outcome, Common errors …
• Selecting the best Job Aid type for the need
• Creating and Testing your Job Aid (the focus of this training)
• Distributing your Job Aid

During the training, you will start to create your own Job Aid.  We’ll ask you to use Canva (there’s a free version and we’ll ask you to sign-up for this – don’t worry if you don’t already know how to use Canva).  Of course, back in the workplace you can continue using Canva or use PowerPoint, Snagit, Venngage etc

“One-week training course reduced to one day with accompanying eight-page job aid. Proficiency increased by 50%”
