Organizational Training: “involves identifying whether training supports the company’s strategic direction; whether managers, peers, and employees support training activity; and what training resources are available.” The Cottrell Home Day Care will be training its employees known as providers assistant on the safety of the day care children. As we move along throughout the organizational analysis of the day care we will first look at how the training content could affect our employees relationship with our customers. Our training will give employees confidence in communicating with customers on how they are capable of performing key emergency situations such as CPR, and fire drills.

What the partners need to know about the program is the state of Illinois regulated laws of training, a full detail of every training needed necessary for the day care safety as a whole.The program aligns with the strategic need of the business because it meets the safety standards required by the day care laws, and gives a recruiting edge over the competitors. It offers the customers a sense of secure safety.

Organizational resources are always great sources to be devoted to a business especially in child care services. Good organizational resources that are being devoted to Cottrell Home Day Care are: American Heart association which is used to help aid in CPR training, along with Child Care Aware (CAA) a program of the National Association of Child Care Resource & Referral Agencies (NACCRRA), has information for parents and providers and links to local Child Care Resource and Referral agencies (CCR&R). CCA is funded in part by the Office of Child Care, Office of Family Assistance, Administration for Child and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

In order for our training to succeed the owner/director of the business has to be patience, knowledgeable of emergency procedures and proficient to be able to teach the peers proper tools in training. What is needed from the peers to succeed, is knowledge, proficiency, patience and the willingness to learn. What features of the work environment that can interfere with training is lack of staff, whether, and a undereducated staff that does not have the concept or ability to learn basic training skills.

Outside of the director of the business itself to help ensure training we will provide a specialist from the Illinois Department of Children Services who will assist in training. After the training is completed the employees will see this training as a reward because now they have learned new techniques that will assist them further in their life’s, knowing how to evacuate a building during a fire drill and especially knowing CPR can help these employee advance them in their careers in child care and can also gain them to higher position in this field.

Task analysis: “results in a description of work activities, including tasks performed by the employee and the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to complete the tasks”. The employees task regarding the safety of a fire drill procedure will be to gather all of the children evaluate everyone out of the building, then they will walk to our safe house which is across the street and contact the fire department as well as the parents. We randomly evaluate our employees ability to handle these situations in real life by conducting random fire and other safety drills with the children. Training for CPR will consist of a specialist from Pulse CPR coming to the training session and displaying as well as hands on activities to the employees. The task for the employees in this situation is to perform CPR on any child that is enrolled in the day care whether it consists of them being unconscious or possibly chocking from any food. Contacting 911 will also be a task performed by employees if any CPR situation occurred.

Person Analysis “helps to identify employees who need training, that is, whether employees’ current performance or expected performance indicates a need for training.” Person analysis in the business of home day care will be determined if an employee needs training is by their lack of not fully completing fire drills and CPR. If a employee does not follow through with all guidelines of double checking to make sure all children are out of the building, they will need to be trained. If a child is eating and accidently chokes on their food and an employee is unable to perform proper CPR then that requires for immediate training.
