Great ideas - Joni.

There are seminar companies that offer the same seminar in different cities - another way to get everyone on the same page even though they are in different locations. Fred Pryor Seminars for example offers a course entitled "HR Essentials" that can get new hires up to speed quickly. Cornell University also a has great human resources training program of various one and two day seminars - good to fill in the knowledge gaps.

Hi Mona,

Thanks for your insights and great advice! Yes, there are some great outsourced training out there on this subject. Most major cities have a university or college that offers an HR program and outreach to the local businesses. There are also private HR consulting firms that offer this sort of training as well. Thanks for sharing your particular favorites. I hope other readers will share thiers.

hi joni
well in regards to training programmes for HR , these days companies are outsourcing the work to external vendors, however , in some companies the new HR recruit is sent to diffrent locations in the same country to know the Culture, on a whole getting Trained . So, not like earlier times, Training of HR is considered more important these days.
Regards
Shailesh

Hi Shailesh,

Thank you for your comments! It is always interesting to hear from readers.

The article was about training new managers on HR policies not on training HR hires, but you are absolutely right that a good way to train new HR hires on cultural differences is to send them to different branch offices (be it in the same country or different countries) to gain an understanding of cultural differences. The phrase "cultural differences" can refer to corporate cultural differences or ethnic culture differences - both of which can be studied by visiting various branch offices.

You are also correct that the importance of HR training - be it to new HR recruits or to new managers - has become a much hirer priority these days.
