Performance Pointers

Federally funded performance training for small businesses

• Are you looking for customized, in-house, performance improvement training and development for your employees – but have no budget?
• Would your company benefit from a tailored employee training program, aligned to the priorities of your business?
• Would you be interested in government-funded employee learning and development, to be delivered by a qualified training provider?
• Does your business have less than 50 employees, and have you been in business for at least one year?

If you have answered yes to any one of these questions, we would like to talk with you about a no-cost-to-you employee training initiative, funded by the federal government, to help small business owners grow their company. Call us for an appointment at 604-317-2234.

The “Workplace Training for Innovation Program” is a new initiative administered by the BC Government, and funded by the Federal Government, to help small business employers improve their business performance through customized training for their employees.
The program provides employers with up to $5,000.00 in employee learning funds. The application must be submitted in partnership with a qualified training provider. We do all the legwork; your business and your employees benefit. Win-Win.

Some examples of programs:
• Sales training: developing sales scripts, market segmentation and Customer Relationship Management strategies
• Communications training: improving delegation and collaboration, understanding and managing team dynamics
• Management development: developing a coaching leadership style, empowering staff, managing client and staff expectations
• Process and policy review and design: capturing and documenting roles and responsibilities, guiding staff through workflow reviews and improving effectiveness

This program initiative supports a wide range of training options, including one-on-one coaching, leadership training, process and workflow reviews, sales and customer service training, and communication and collaboration workshops.

The main goal is to help your employees improve their performance, and improve the overall performance of your business. Typically, owners of small businesses would not normally be able to afford the type of training this program covers, since it is customized, delivered in-house, and uniquely tailored to each individual business’ needs.

The program does not cover training on the following: regulatory, health, safety or workplace orientation.
