FARMINGDALE,
NY (05-30-07): EtQ
has announced the release
of the new EtQ Training
module, which incorporates
employee testing and learning
management utilities, for
use within the EtQ Document
Control database.
Ensuring proper training
on released documents
within a Quality Management
System is of the utmost
importance. For every
document released, employee
training on those documents
can have an impact on
how well the Quality System
is operating. To ensure
proper training on released
documents, EtQ has enhanced
the EtQ Employee Training
database to include learning
management functionality,
including testing and
scoring of employee training
on documents within the
Quality System.
Document Control and
Training are linked within
EtQ's Quality Management
System, as are all of
EtQ's integrated
modules. When a document
is completed, the owner
of that document is able
to set training specifications
- training requirements,
groups to be trained,
training due dates, and
any tests associated with
that document. These tests
consist of questions that
relate to the content
of the document, and can
be labeled in multiple
choice, pass/fail, or
percentage scoring methods.
Once the document reaches
the Awaiting Release phase
in the workflow, training
notifications are automatically
sent to the assigned groups,
and direct each employee
to take the test. Based
on the result, the employee
will either pass or fail
a test, and training results
are reported to the owner
of the document.
The benefits of incorporating
testing to Document Control
are far-reaching. In many
systems, training is either
handled manually offline,
or via self-certification.
While these methods ensure
that the document was
opened, it does not ensure
that the document was
read and understood. EtQ's
Training system enables
companies to ensure documents
are read and understood,
by testing employees and
reporting on their score.
Furthermore, managers
are able to incorporate
EtQ's Training System
with EtQ's Centralized
Reporting system, run
reports on training effectiveness
across the enterprise,
and determine the overall
strength of the company's
training program. This
concept of Learning Management
within the Quality System
can help to improve the
overall quality of employee
training.
EtQ's Training
System is just one of
the many integrated features
within EtQ's Quality
Management System that
allows for the automation
of business processes,
integration of quality
across the enterprise,
and collaboration within
the company to help foster
organizational change.
