Dear Isma, The information that you have provided is inadequate. What is your product or service? How many processes are involved in producing the product or delivering a service? What is your designation? Is this your initiative, or has some senior authority instructed you to undertake this exercise?

Concerning the Training Framework

You should measure the following costs:

- Inventory Carrying Cost of Raw Materials
- Work in Progress (WIP) Inventory Costs
- Inventory Carrying Cost of Finished Goods
- Capital costs to run the operations
- Capacity costs
- Maintenance costs
- Quality costs

Start by measuring these costs. Training will be effective if you focus your training activities on reducing these costs. Otherwise, training may end up being merely rhetoric and humbug. Moreover, you need to measure these costs independently. No ready-made framework can be provided by outsiders.

Thanks,

Kindly provide your requirements for In-House Training.

1. Training individual department employees by their own department staff.
2. Training employees of various departments, such as Safety, by their own employees.
3. Conducting the training program at the workplace by external faculty.

There are a few more ways to define In-House training. Please specify your exact needs so that we can provide guidance.
