On-line Training for Health Care
The first three hours of treatment is critical for a stroke patient. To achieve consistent, quality care across several hospitals, we developed on-line training course for Emergency Department
doctors, nurses and technicians on how to treat stroke patients
when they first enter the hospital. Results indicated that patients were given the proper care during the critical first three hours, resulting in improved patient outcomes.
To offer training to health care personnel that meets their busy schedules, we developed a series of courses.
This included a stroke treatment course for a stroke unit as well as safety training for a radiation department. We also developed on-line training
for Nursing Documentation, HIPAA Compliance and hospital orientation for new employees.
On-line Performance Management
Training
This is an on-line training course introducing new managers
to their performance management system. The purposes of the
training are to align the material with the business strategy
and give managers a basic level of knowledge about the company's
performance management system to that new managers will all
start from the same place in later live courses. Click

On-line Database Management Training
& Desktop Tool
This is an on-line training course that supports a complex
database management program that was written in-house. The purpose
of the training was to reduce the supervisory time to train
employees and answer their questions regarding the database.
In addition to its use as an on-line course for new employees,
the tool is also a desktop reference for more experienced employees.

Work Process Documentation
In order to improve quality and decrease costs, we document
work processes based on task analyses and interviews with
subject matter experts. The final product combines digital
photographs and text to illustrate each step in the work process.
This documentation may be put on-line so that operators can
have access to it from their consoles or put into print form
for distribution to trainers. The documentation is supported
by checklists for trainers to assess post-training skill levels
of the trainees.
Collaborative Problem Solving
The Alignment
Group conducts seminars in collaborative problem solving with
its partners at The Boeing Corporation and Pratt & Whitney
Rocketdyne. This half-day seminar focuses on understanding the
different types of problems and which tools are likely to produce
the most effective solutions. Click

General Problem Solving
The Alignment
Group offers intensive training in problem solving and process
improvement. With this training, managers and employees have a
structured means to solve and prevent business problems. We use
an action-learning model by taking one of your business problems
as the training example. This way learners solve an actual problem
while they master the discipline and skills of problem solving.

is for the employees to develop a line-of-sight between what they
