00:00:01.566 --> 00:00:08.499
Fact: Employees who are engaged at work are happier, perform better, and stay on the job longer.

2
00:00:08.500 --> 00:00:12.566
Training and development managers play a big role in this dynamic:

3
00:00:12.566 --> 00:00:15.799
making sure that employees not only learn the skills they need,

4
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:18.800
but also get the learning opportunities they want.

5
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:24.300
These managers research topics, develop workshops and trainings, and give presentations.

6
00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:26.966
They may purchase materials from different sources,

7
00:00:26.966 --> 00:00:30.466
tailor them for the organization, and create some of their own.

8
00:00:30.466 --> 00:00:34.666
Running new employee orientations is often part of the job.

9
00:00:34.666 --> 00:00:39.299
A skilled training manager will conduct surveys, evaluate their programs,

10
00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:44.700
and keep tabs on leadership’s priorities to ensure their training efforts hit the target.

11
00:00:44.700 --> 00:00:47.666
Training materials and methods must be up to date;

12
00:00:47.666 --> 00:00:52.832
they may use distance learning systems or videoconferencing to reach employees at a distance.

13
00:00:52.833 --> 00:00:55.133
All while keeping a balanced budget.

14
00:00:55.133 --> 00:00:58.899
Training and development managers work in almost every industry.

15
00:00:58.900 --> 00:01:04.000
They almost always work full-time during regular business hours in an office setting.

16
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:07.900
A bachelor’s degree, or sometimes a master’s degree, is required,

17
00:01:07.900 --> 00:01:13.800
in business administration, human resources, curriculum design, or a related field.
