Customizable solution for manufacturing-specific training needs
Alchemy Systems and the Illinois Manufacturing Extension Center (IMEC) have partnered to demonstrate the SISTEM training and compliance program for manufacturers on Thursday, June 21 at TMA in Park Ridge. Through conversations with companies in the field, IMEC experts have heard common themes echoed throughout the state of Illinois. Companies are seeing an increasing difficulty in keeping workers properly trained and productive, a struggle maintaining a system of documentation for training, and meeting safety requirements and reporting.
The SISTEM training and compliance solution will help companies address these issues and relieve the manufacturer of the difficulties associated with training employees. At the workshop, participants will hear from a Chicago-area manufacturer and learn how they have customized this solution to meet plant- and machine-specific training needs. Attendees will also hear how regulatory and industry pressures are forcing you to change the way you train workers, including assessing their comprehension at their education level.
