Just-in-time (JIT) is training rolled-out, or launched,
immediately prior to its usage. The advantage to implementing
JIT is the shortened time between learning and application. The
most basic version of this kind of training is a software
that you can download or purchase as a library. When
an employee needs to learn a new function or task,
all they have to do is log in to the system and start
learning. JITT (Just in time training) is a way to streamline
educating the workforce. Among the benefits of this
kind of employee development is that you don't need
to engage a teacher to teach the class, you don't need
to schedule a class or classroom. The cost benefits
of JITT are tremendous, in addition to the ability
to train employees in a near automated fashion. The key to these autonomous learning systems is the
ability to train groups of employees in multiple areas
on a fully automated basis. Because grading the tests
are automated as well, a manager can simply assign
a new employee the lessons they need to learn and have
the test scores emailed as soon as the test is finished.
JITT learning systems are but one of the many innovative
methods for training the workforce.
