Descrption:
IBM saved 6,000 employee days in less than 12 months by introducing TeleClasses into their training system.
TeleClasses are live, interactive training sessions conducted over the telephone using state-of-the-art-teleconferencing bridge systems. They are highly interactive, just like telephone seminars.
Susan Valdiserri, Professional Coach with IBM said “the TeleClass format exceeded our expectations. It was an experiment that has proven enormously successful.”
IBM has thousands of Managers around the world who are required to go through periodic ‘face-to-face’ training. IBM were faced with a major problem - travel to attend training sessions was costing a fortune, and eating into busy managers working time.
IBM introduced one hour TeleClasses allowing trainees (and trainers) to come together by telephone from anywhere in the world. The benefits and cost savings come in many areas – travel costs, loss of working time, no need for refreshments of producing expensive course manuals (as these are delivered electronically by email), and stress levels reduce.
Recordings are made of each session and are accessible 24/7. So if a trainee misses a class they can tune in at a more convenient time.
IBM is currently extending their TeleClass system across the organization. Susan Valdiserri said that “the TeleClass system is so easy to use that we are converting much of our existing training materials into a programme we call ‘Just-In-Time-Learning’, using a combination of the web TeleClasses.”
