Example Training Systems

Training plans can take a variety of forms: written/text, audio, pictorial, flowcharts, and video. I am biased to work with laziness, not against it, so pictures, audio and video do the best job of making things easy for the trainee. Here are some training examples.

Flowcharts

A flowcharted system can be as simple as the one below for checking the oil level in a car

or as complex as the second example for an oil refinery

Pictorial

Pictorial storyboards are easy to create and can be powerful. If you lay them out in Adobe PageMaker or Microsoft Publisher instead of Word, you can manipulate them easily down the road. Systems are always changing, so allow for it.
