Problems:

Properly reporting inventory and hours

Low morale and high turnover

Solution:

Program will automatically log inventory

Employees will use it for schedules, time off and daily clocking in/out
procedures
Cash register will sync with program and employees will use id cards to log
in/out of each register
Will also provide other same metrics and time metrics that can be
incentivized to build morale and motivate employees

ADDIE!
I chose to use the ADDIE model to specify my written plan for completing this project.
Using ADDIE made it very easy for me to address what would be handled at each stage of
the project. At certain points after I would review this with the stake holder, my ADDIE
method will turn a little more into AGILE due to constantly reviewing and updating my
plan but I chose to begin with the ADDIE model, complete it and then review and make
changes.

1) Analysis
a) Audience
(1) All managers in all locations (Manager PLP 25-30 mostly males with little to no
college education)
ii) What skills or knowledge does the audience already have?--> Managers have
basic knowledge of logging inventory and understand scheduling procedures
b) Instructional Goals
i) Trainees should understand the benefits of the program and how to use it properly and
effectively
c) Learning objectives
i) by the time a student finishes this course, he should be able to :
(1) Demonstrate proper input of inventory and schedules
(2) Describe the benefits to his employees
(3) Encourage team members to use tool effectively
(4) Understand different aspects of program (including metrics that could be
incentivized)
(5) Understands the type of incentives he is able to offer his team
d) Performance context
i) Managers will start to apply learned material immediately w/ everyday work
ii) soft launch for next 3 weeks
iii) Complete transition within 30 day mark

2) Design
a) Course format will be face to face with computers, 2-day training
b) Instructional strategy(1) Talk to managers about benefits for them and employees
(a) Demonstrate proper input of inventory and schedules
(b) Describe the benefits to his employees
(c) Encourage team members to use tool effectively
(d) Understand different aspects of program (including metrics that could be
incentivized)
(e) Understands the type of incentives he is able to offer his team
ii) Content presentation
(1) Include examples, keep out unnecessary info
(a) Demonstrate proper input of inventory and schedules
(i) Learners will practice entering inventory
(ii) They will practice updating schedules
1. Daily routine and special circumstances (PTO, etc)
(iii)
They will practice logging in and out by card swipe
(b) Describe the benefits to his employees
(i) They will come up with ideas for incentives (within the guidelines)
(c) Encourage team members to use tool effectively
(i) Proper encouragement techniques will be reviewed
(d) Understand different aspects of program (including metrics that could be
incentivized)
(i) Trainees will break off into groups and explore the program in search for
other ways the program could be beneficial (metrics)and present them
to the class
(e) Understands the type of incentives he is able to offer his team
(i) Trainees will review the guidelines set on incentives
iii) Learner participation
(1) Practice assessments will be given from the previous learning
(2) Feedback will be given to each group/individual
(3) Trainees will also split into groups and role play the training that they will be
required to take back to their employees
iv) Assessment- final, practice and attitude assessments
(1) Final assessments will be given at the conclusion along with course evaluations

3) Development
i) Instructions will be written in very easy to follow steps as follows (Sample)
(1) Login in to your account
(2) Right click on Schedules
(3) Scroll to the specific employees name and click edit schedule
(4) Enter employees schedule on this window
b) All additional course materials will be developed at this point (print outs, etc.)
c) Once complete we will Conduct a run through (real time rehearsal of the course)

4) Implantation phase

a) At this point we will train the instructor to know objectives, activities, media and
assessments
b) The learners will be prepared- they will be informed of any pre-requisites that need to be
known before training begins or any materials that they need to bring
c) Learning space will be arranged and any materials that need to be printed will be printed
for training

5) Evaluation
a) Reaction will be assessed using (strongly agree questions), learning(post test checks for

the learning objectivesachievement tests), behavior (measure transfer from training to

behavior)and results
