Myers-Holum’s Approach to Training

Myers-Holum’s recommended high-level approach to training is as follows:

  • First, we identify the skill levels and organizational structure required for both the client’s start-up (implementation) and steady-state (ongoing) operations.
  • Second, we develop and administer a skill survey template to determine the client employee’s existing skill levels vis-a-vis the targeted requirement. The gap between the existing skill levels and the targeted requirements represents the training that needs to be completed.
  • Third, we develop a training plan specifically targeted to address this gap, the overall implementation schedule and the client’s available budget. MHI has a full spectrum of ad hoc training options to leverage in this regard ranging from on-site classes in data warehousing, hands-on training in specific technologies, methodology, architecture, metadata, business intelligence, etc. Also, we frequently develop and administer a customized training curriculum targeted specifically at the customer’s requirement.
  • Finally, after getting concurrence from the customer on the training plans viability and making any necessary revisions, we would finalize the training schedule, develop the required custom training materials and conduct the training.
