Computer Based Trainings (CBT's)

Information on the inner workings of all those trainings your business makes you take online as well as some automation to make it easier on you!

What is a CBT?

A CBT, or computer-based training, is a training you take on the computer!

Yeah, yeah. A CBT is what happens when companies want to be able to state that their employees were trained on certain aspects of the job they'll be doing, whether it be safety or procedure, but want to make sure that information is standardized for each employee.

There are more reasons why a company would decide to do CBTs instead of direct training or classroom setting. They may not have the space to do so. They may have either not enough staff or too many people who need the training to have a decent ratio. CBTs are also a quick and dirty CYA for the company so if anything bad happens, the employee can't blame the company for not instructing them on what they were supposed to do. "See? You took the training, it's on your file."

Now I'm not saying all CBTs are bad or useless. I've had many CBTs I've learned good info from and I try to take notes just as I'd do in an online class so I can refer to this stuff later on. It also gives you a good baseline. You might not remember the information, but you know where to go to get it and every time it comes up it solidifies that info in your mind.

Speaking of online classes, especially with the whole COVID thing, a lot of people learned that they just aren't good at taking online courses. Hopefully there should some stuff in here to help out with that.

What are we trying to do here?

I have a few goals that I want from this program.
