Your Big Project – Series 1 Episode 10 – Training
Welcome to Training, talk Ten in the series ‘Your Big Project‘. Hopefully this series of podcasts will improve the chances of success for your project. We always consider the good, the bad and the extremely ugly!
You need to have excellent training if your project is to have any chance of success. Far too often people skimp on training with disastrous results. Skimping on training can kill a successful business.
Problems include:
- Boring training material – people are turned off
- Material does not explain the Why properly – this results in no buy in
- People don’t understand the importance of ‘Best Practice’
- Training is not seen as a critical activity – even seen as optional
You need to ensure that everyone involved in the project can deliver the material effectively. This includes you! If you can’t use the system properly you’ll have no ‘street cred’.
Lots of practical work is essential to show future users the look and feel of the system – it is essential that they can use it. Test people’s ability to use the system. Fail those who don’t pass the tests. Failures must not use the system.

The talk is based on the experience I have gained through my involvement in a number of systems projects. I hope that you find it useful.
I hope that you gain ideas from the successes and failures of others and that you have a life changing success.
