Why train…?
In most commercial businesses training is about generating or saving money through more effective operations and processes. The purpose of training is to improve employee performance. Training provides employees with knowledge and confidence that helps them to conduct their job more effectively. This knowledge will be translated into better selling, buying and quality control decisions which will result in increased sales, bigger margins and reduced quality complaints, returns and remediation costs. It has also been proven that investing in people through training increases morale and reduces staff turnover.
The benefits of technical training are even more pronounced with leather, which is a challenging material to understand, being a natural substrate with varying quality and performance characteristics.
