I am passionate about training. Training is absolutely essential to any company that aims at increasing production output and at the same time maintains low safety related incidents.

Recruited to develop a training system was a huge challenge for me. First of all I looked at the company vision and mission statements and drafted a training strategy. From this I then developed an action plan based on the vision and mission. I worked with Senior management to prioritize the tasks before I developed and implemented them; voice animated induction programs, all sectional safe operating procedures, progression path for employees, create training information system, training request forms, assessment methods & tools and Equipment training materials.
