Albany International Training process prior to TWI:
• Training originated as mentoring with experienced personnel with little formal
documentation or evaluation
• What drove the need for more formalized training?
• Time to competence was too long
• Increased quality requirements and process complexity
• Structured “Operator School” developed (3-4 months in total)
• 4-6 weeks of formal training
• Two weeks of classroom – Theory of process, definitions, etc.
• Two weeks of hands on training
• Followed by 6-8 weeks of mentorship (paired with experienced
Operator)
• Qualified after completing a “Drivers Test”
• Formal documentation, procedures, work instructions, checklist, forms, etc.
followed with the implementation of ISO9000

JOB INSTRUCTION
HOW TO GET READY TO INSTRUCT
Before instructing people how to do a job:
1. MAKE A TIME TABLE FOR TRAINING
Who to Train
For which work….
By what date…
2. BREAK DOWN THE JOB
List Important Steps
Select Key Points
Safety Factors are always Key Points
3. GET EVERYTHING READY
The proper equipment , tools, material
and whatever needed to aid instruction
4. ARRANGE THE WORKSITE
Neatly, as in actual working conditions

Special Situations – Long Operations
• First Pass before official TWI training
– 3 skills in one document
– 18 Important steps
• (Step 17 divided into sub steps)
• 8 pages long
– Large graphics
• Intended to serve multiple purposes
• One pass through 1 ½ hrs – too long to follow TWI JI method.

The impact of ISO9000 on training and doc structure:
• Formalized documentation, the good, the bad and the ugly
• As process and business complexity grew, so did number and
length of procedures
• Corrective Actions

12 pages
• Close to 400 work area procedures
• Close to 900 documents in total; forms, charts and procedures!

Key Points to Remember
•Get some outside help or guidance (experience in TWI) •Get commitment to dedicated resources •Follow the proven methodology – no short cuts •Training timetable is critical •Audit process is critical • This process will result in PULL!
“Operators are actually reading the procedures now! I have been
getting feedback on them and document change requests. This rarely happened before with our lengthy procedures.”
“I have operators asking me almost every day when I am going to train them. It is a really positive thing considering I thought it would be the opposite with some push back and attitudes”
Requires a Culture Change!
