Blue Healer Resort is a resort with 25 staff in a range of diverse roles. Located in
one office, based in Sydney, there are a variety of different teams within the office.
The Staffing roles within each of the teams have a range of different skill sets that
required to run the business, ranging from senior management staff to entry-level
staff.
The company is in a period of expansion and needs to ensure that it can access a
sufficient number of qualified staff. Over the last 12 months, the company has found
it challenging to attain and maintain adequately trained staff. As a result, the CEO
has decided to address this by rolling out a 'Set for Skilling' program.
The CEO hopes that this program will help increase staff retention and reap all the
benefits of a highly skilled, diverse workplace.
The success of the Set for Skilling Program relies on your ability to work as a
Recruitment Manager managing the program implementation. A vital part of the
implement is your ability to educate the staff on the Blue Healer Resort diversity
policy in the roll out of the Set for Skilling Program.
1. Review documents
Access and review the Blue Healer Resort Set for Skilling Program Documents in
your student resource folder and locate and review the diversity policy for Blue
Healer Resort from within the documents and familiarise yourself with the Dispute
Resolution Policy and associated procedures.
Critically review the diversity policy and determine if it is suitable or if an update is
required.
Your aim within the review is to ensure that the program is effectively implemented
and that as the backbone of the program it is understood and acted upon by all staff
and to ensure it aligns with the Set for Skilling Program. It needs to include clear
procedures for staff to be able to follow and must include a procedure for ensuring
diversity in selecting and recruiting staff.
Review the legislative requirements that are applicable to the program. Due to the
recruitment changes imposed by the program, the business will now be required to
adhere to legislation in all states, instead of just NSW and the diversity policy also
needs to reflect this
Based on your review completed, develop a briefing report for the CEO detailing
your feedback and suggestions for changes to the policy and development of
procedures along with ideas on strategies you plan to take to ensure the Set for
Skilling program is effectively implemented, acted on and understood by the various
program stakeholders, including new and existing staff.
Complete the report using the template provided in your resources folder and make
sure you complete all sections.
Once you have received feedback from the CEO, make the necessary changes to
the Diversity Policy, write the procedures and submit to the CEO (your assessor)
via email as an attachment.
The text of the email should be in grammatically correct English, written in an
appropriate (polite, business-like) style.

It’s time to implement strategies decided on for rolling out the program to staff
members. As noted in the case study, there have been prior difficulties with some
staff members and the CEO is wanting to ensure that prior difficulties and situations
are addressed in the training to enable all staff to better manage any conflict in the
future.
The CEO has requested that a Set for Skilling Staff Training Manual is
developed and then a training session be developed and delivered based on the
manual.
1. Design and develop a Set for Skilling Staff Training Manual (in the form of a pdf or word
document).
The training manual should be designed to assist you, the Recruitment Manager
and your team, roll out the Set for Skilling Program, program initiatives, diversity
policy and associated procedures and be designed using language appropriate to
the staff of Blue Healer Resort.
The Training manual should address the training needs you have identified will be
required for the staff of Blue Healer Resort to successfully embrace the Set for
Skilling Program and will be used as a training tool document to help you train your
staff (recruitment officers) on the Set for Skilling Program, who will in turn train
others within the company and new employees during induction.
The staff training manual must include:
1. An introduction to the Set for Skilling Program including the program
objectives and initiatives.
2. The benefits of the Set for Skilling Program, in the workplace in relation to
work performance, skill level and the delivery of the business’s services to
customers. (specifically outlining the benefits of working effectively with
difference).
3. A summary of the training needs identified and how the Set for Skilling
Program provides solutions to these. You are to identify these by reviewing
the CEO’s background information in the Set for Skilling Program
Document
4. A process for employees to follow to help them become aware of and let go
of any negative beliefs, bias or judgements they may hold toward people
who are different from them. (This could be in the form of a training activity,
such as questionnaire or reflection activity that could be implemented in the
training).
5. An overview of Blue Healer Resort’s diversity policy and the dispute
resolution procedures so employees are aware of the aims of the
organisation in relation to diversity and the location of and the procedures
to be followed if they encounter conflict in the workplace.
DIT_BSBDIV501_SAT_V1.0 Page 15 of 50
BSBDIV501 Manage diversity in the workplace | Student Assessment Tasks
Demonstrate that your training manual is attached to the email to the CEO
(assessor) for review.
The text of the email should be in grammatically correct English, written in an
appropriate (polite, business-like) style.
It should introduce and summarise the contents of the attachment and seek their
feedback and approval to move ahead with the delivery session.
The objectives of staff training and development are to benchmark the status of
improvement in a performance improvement effort. The performance appraisal indicates
performance improvement that is needed in the business. The professional development
program is to help the employees eligible for planned change in role in the organization. It
focuses on being a test or pilot for operation of a new performance management system
from this specific training.
The benefits of the Set for Skilling Program are that it will increase efficiencies in
processes that result in financial gain by allowing Blue Healer Resort to increase the
capacity to adopt new technologies and methods. There is increased innovation in
strategies and products from the increased employee motivation, job satisfaction and
morale (Rodriguez & Walters, 2017). There will be enhanced Blue Healer Resort image
through conducted ethics training and the risk management through diversity and sexual
harassment training.
The training needs to embrace the policies and practices in places to protect the
employees' rights by staying compliant with the diversity and inclusion regulations. Blue
Healer Resort will think about the impact of policies and practices on a diverse group of
employees. The business will need to have proper documentation of policies and
procedures through concrete plans that will be implemented and included in the
employee's handbook (Celikdemir & Katrinli, 2020). There is the outline of employment
conditions and termination, compensation and benefits policy, code of conduct outline
company's policy and non-discrimination policy.
Lastly, sensitivity training for the employees will be the last item in this Set for Skilling
Program because it will help employees examine and adjust their perspectives from
different backgrounds (Sung & Choi, 2018). Teaching employees how to communicate
and resolve the conflict properly.
Staff training manuals are documented ideas and practices which are given
to employees by training managers for their future reference. Employee training
manual should include relevant information which would help employees enhance their
will and capabilities
Below employee training and development material keep your staff motivated and
assists them in learning new constructs

Some of the ways thoroughly training employees can benefit a practice include:
Trained employees are going to be more efficient. Also, if you work to cross-train
your staff, you won't face gaps if an employee is out of work or leaves the practice.
Agility
As the work landscape shifts, learning to be agile is a critical skill, as yesterday's solutions
do not solve tomorrow's problems. At the heart of being agile is shifting gears when the
context calls for it and responding accordingly to the needs of your workplace, patients.
Verbal communication
Advancing in your career is not just based on what you do. There's a good chance that at
some point in your career you'll have to use strong verbal communication skills so you
can sell others on your ideas, products, or services. Whether you're needing to explain
your value when you are being considered for a promotion, presenting as part of a team
project, or speaking on stage, you need to be able to communicate well and convey
strong, persuasive ideas.
Empathy
The ability to empathize with others, or see things from their perspective by
understanding their emotions and reactions, is a fundamental part of how we interact with
one another. Communicating genuinely and authentically with others is vital because
even in instances when you disagree with your coworkers on elements of a work project,
for example, empathy allows you to demonstrate to others that they are seen and heard.

To kick off the roll out of the Set for Skilling Program, the CEO has requested you
run a staff training for your team of Recruitment Officers in the Set for Skilling
Program, who will then be prepared to deliver the training to others in the
organisation throughout the coming months. The CEO (assessor) will sit in on this
training.
You will utilise the training manual you have created as the primary tool to assist
you in training the staff in the organisation requirements of the Set for Skilling
Program.
Using the template provided in your resources folder, develop a session plan which
includes timings and topics as well as brief instructions to yourself on how to run
the training based on the training manual you have developed from the Set for
Skilling program documentation. The session must run for approximately 30 mins
and the assumption is that all of the participants are familiar with the manual. Your
assessor will ensure your team is diverse in nature.
Your training must include:
An introduction outlining the purpose and benefits of the program
A summary of the training needs identified and how the Set for Skilling
Program provides solutions to these
An activity to help participants become aware of and let go of any negative
belief systems, bias or judgements they may hold toward people who are
different from them – based on what you developed in the employee
manual
An example of your own previous bias (as the Recruitment Manager) and
how you overcame this and let go of pre-conceived ideas of stereotypes
A series of activities such as role plays directly demonstrating how to follow
the procedures for:
o managing tension created by difference
You need to specifically develop some role plays for the participants ensuring that
you play the lead role and each of the participants has a turn to play the roles of
people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. The aim of this is to demonstrate
and model how to address issues of difference, manage tensions and work
effectively with difference, along with demonstrating how conflict resolution
techniques can be utilised. Access the case study document in your student
resources folder for ideas.
Submit the session plan to your assessor for review before scheduling the training
session with your assessor and delivering it.

Now that the training session has been delivered, based on feedback collected at
the end of your training session, develop some type of external communication to
promote the benefits of diversity and the image and reputation of the company as a
leader in promoting it.
You may create the communication in any format you feel is relevant, as long as it
is designed to promote diversity and portray a positive image of the organisation for
clients and other stakeholders outside of the organisation which promotes is
accounting services.
Submit this to your assessor.
You have to create it by setting the right expectations, communication protocols, objectives,
right tools, and training methods.
An employee training manual empowers employees with the necessary skills and ensures
that the organization realizes its goals.
Manuals help convey the vast information related to training to all your employees. Errors are
bound to happen and to avoid that you need an employee training manual that not only
guides the employees but also keeps the organization on track.
Work with employees and managers to set new goals for training. Based on the discussion,
you can change the objectives and overall goals of your employee training efforts.
The goal of new employee onboarding should be to impart them with all the essential training
to adapt to the company's culture and complete their work.
An employee must be provided with the training roadmap and the benefits that they will reap.
It helps them to get an idea about the importance of training and encourages involvement.
The manager's goal should be to assess the effectiveness of the training and its impact on
the employee's performance.

The assessment process should not take place immediately after training but it should be
conducted periodically in a targeted manner to learn employee's efficiency in each category
such as technical skills, soft skills, critical thinking, and analytical abilities.
The objective should be to make your employees build upon their strengths and overcome
their weaknesses.
You should also include advanced skills for the promotion of the employee as an important
objective in your training manual.
If you prepare your workforce with advanced skills it becomes easy to internally promote an
employee rather than spending huge sums of money on hiring new candidates and it boosts
the career of your employees who understands the culture of the company.
The objective must be designed in line with the company's overall aspirations and ambitions
of your employees to create a workforce that can help the organization and employees to
achieve their respective targets.
Whenever you execute a project, transformation effort, change initiative, or even creating a
training manual, communication and collaboration are the key elements that will help you to
achieve success.
Creating an employee training manual is not an easy task. Understanding the requirement of
each job function or role could be difficult while creating the manual.
To draft a training manual properly, create a team that comprises of manual designer, writer,
editor, and planning master.
Further, be open to collaborating with employees from other departments to get an idea about
what is expected from the training manual and training program.
Communicate your ideas to the managers and leaders and take their input as well to create a
great employee training manual.
The last thing you want is the employees not getting benefit out of your employee training
manual. The best way is to create customized training manuals for each job function.
You have to build upon step 2 and understand the demographics, mindset, behavior, job role,
function, background, and purpose of your audience.
Knowing this will help you to design a proper training manual that gets a higher engagement
rate, improves employee performance, and reduces job errors.
Further, you must know where the knowledge of your audience stands and for that, you can
conduct a survey. Design your manual by considering the person with minimum knowledge.

Doing so will help you create a manual that can be referred by anyone with even a bare
minimum knowledge and everyone gets the benefit of it.
In Step 1, we defined objectives to serve the overall purpose. Here we are going to discuss
the Milestones that an employee needs to achieve which helps to get towards that objective.
Milestones help employees to know where they stand and give a sense of accomplishment. A
goal of training could be to impart technical skills to an employee in a matter of 6 months but
during that whole period employees might be overwhelmed and could give up.
To avert such a situation, divide the objectives into small yet significant milestones to
motivate employees to proceed after each achievement.
Milestones indicate substantial accomplishments that boost morale and helps employees to
continue working toward their final objectives.
You should also assign deadlines to these milestones, but don't be unreasonable. Each one
of us is different and we all take a different amount of time to grasp or learn something.
Be flexible with your deadlines. The aim of having a deadline is to create a sense of discipline
in the training structure and make your employees value the time they spend on training. The
purpose is not to make them panic.
Now that we have covered a lot of ground, it is time to add the content for training. Of course,
you need the right tools, training methods, and instructors to impart the right knowledge but
for now, just note what content should be taught to the employees.
Be careful while creating the training flow and content. Missing crucial details could create big
repercussions.
For instance, if you forget to cover what details are required when entering a new opportunity
into your CRM, your sales team might enter flawed data which could make your reports
useless.
So, it is important to analyze all the steps and procedures that you add to the employee
training plan.
Now that you understand your target audience, and objectives. It is time to use the right
training tools to deliver on the expected lines.
You must utilize authoring tools like Adobe Captivate to create a course within the
organization or could use a subscription-based learning method like Udemy or could use Live
online training sessions to impart the necessary skills.

But the real question is these training tools and methods sufficient?
Most people learn things by taking action and for that either you can go with a simulated
training method where employees are trained in a virtual environment using technologies like
Virtual Reality (VR) or You can go one step further and make your employee productive from
the first day itself by using tools like a Digital Adoption Platform(DAP).
It is a solution that will guide your employee from one step to another seamlessly. It can be
designed in a customized manner for each job function. Using methods like these you not
only save time but also get better ROI.
A DAP also includes the ability to export on-screen guidance as a PDF or Word document
with screengrabs to use in your training manual.
Use this checklist to ensure your training manual follows best practices and has all the necessary
elements:

Mode of You have to decide what type of medium to Learning Head, and Department
communication use to communicate any updates or changes Head
in existing training content. You can choose
medium like email, webinar, and in-app
announcements to convey changes in the
training content.
No process is perfect and the same goes for the employee training manual. You have to
strive to improve it and to do that you have to ask for genuine feedback from the participants.
You can segregate the feedback process into three phases.
The first feedback can be taken during the employee training and onboarding process, the
second feedback can be taken after the assessment test and the final feedback can be taken
after few months to check the impact of the training on their jobs.
Keep the feedback process short and crisp because most of the time participants are not
interested to share their thoughts. So keep it simple for your employees.
Taking feedback at a different stage will help you to improve the flaws in the existing training
system and eventually will help you to make a better training manual.
Summing it Up
Knowledge of creating an employee training manual is crucial to your business. Knowing how
to do it will help you make the employees productive and processes better.
It must align with companies overall objective and employee's personal goals. Splitting the
objective into small milestones will always help to keep employees' spirits high.
Using the right tools and training methods will help you to create the training manual
efficiently. While creating the final draft of the manual you have to keep numerous things in
mind such as from setting the correct expectations to providing the right guidance at the right
time.
One of the best things you can do to build better documentation and training manuals is to
invest in a Digital Adoption Platform which trains your employee from the first day with on-
screen guidance.
It will play a vital role throughout the learning journey of your employees especially when they
are using numerous web-based applications in their day to day jobs and trying to improve
their performance.
