In a Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) survey (2007), 41% cited on-the-job training as the most effective way of learning, well ahead of other methods.

Cotoco’s performance toolkits focus on giving people everything they need to make their jobs easier. They enable people to learn exactly what they need while carrying out their jobs.

We look at what’s needed by your employees and decide the best way to deliver/communicate the overall solution. Everything your employees need to do a job well can be provided in a single package. Accessed from your employees’ computers, performance toolkits can provide the most appropriate mix of:

• Training - where this is the best method to communicate the necessary skills and knowledge.
• Presentations and animations – ideal for communicating business value, or explaining complex topics simply and quickly.
• Easy-to-use reference material - for detailed content which you do not need to remember. It’s easily searchable so you can find exactly what you need quickly.
• Performance aids such as checklists and cheat sheets – to enable your staff to get it right; decision trees – to help your staff make better decisions. It's like having an expert continually at their side.
• Bespoke or off-the-shelf productivity tools can be included in the toolkit to make a real difference.

When developing the content for a performance toolkit, we research what your top performers are doing and integrate their expertise and methods into the solution. This is incorporated with our global research, which provides us with years of experience of what makes a real difference to deliver immediate results.

Very often, staff training material can be re-used or adapted to help your customers understand your offering making it even more cost-effective.

Benefits of on-the-job learning

A performance toolkit is a computer-based tool used on the job! It’s convenient, it’s flexible. It combines everything employees need to do their job at their fingertips. Training, performance aids, reference material are always available at hand when employees need it most.

It’s cost-effective and saves time too. It can be used by employees across the organisation without the need to travel, and so it does not take employees out of the work place.

Learning on-the-job improves retention. It is self-paced and can be done in small chunks. Learning through doing is an excellent way to learn and remember.

Our performance toolkits are easily updateable over the internet so you can make sure that any changes to products or procedures are distributed to all your staff rapidly and cost effectively.
