Training plans are a key element of a successful OJT engagement. The training plan maps out the steps your business will take to help the new hire achieve proficiency in their new role. The PON 3982 OJT Program requires well developed training plans to approve new hire applications and award funding. Your New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) Business Service Representative can assist in the development of this training plan and must sign off on it before submission to NYSERDA.

The Training Plan form can be found on the PON 3982: On-the-Job Training Programsolicitation page under Associated Documents.

UI Step

Training Plans must include:

Job Duties – List the

To complete the Training Plan Details, begin by determine the Job Duties associated with the New Hire's role. Job Duties represent primary activities and/or tasks the

new hire

New Hire will perform in their position during the On-the-Job Training period. These duties and/or tasks can include items such as: System Installation, Direct Customer Outreach and Sales, Data Entry, etc. It may be helpful to leverage the Job Description for the role as they typically indicate specific duties the employee will be performing.

UI Step

Then, enter these job duties and/or tasks into the Job

Training Period.

Frequency – How often the employee will be completing each job duty (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly, occasionally)

Duties column on the Training Plan Details section.

UI Step
Next, determine how frequently the specific job duties and/or tasks will be performed, such as: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or Occasionally. It is OK to be general with respect to frequency as this measurement will help the Department of Labor Business Service Representative determine, with the business, how many hours of training a New Hire should receive with respect to each specific job duty.

UI Step
As you work through the list of document job duties, input the frequency for each in the Frequency column.

UI Step

Then, for each job duty, document the Training Method in the respective column. It is helpful to be as detailed as possible to provide context on how the New Hire will learn the essential skills necessary to successfully perform each job duty.

For example, if the job duty is System Installation, the business may want to articulate that the New Hire will partner with an experienced Installer for 4 hours each day, for two weeks. After each day, the New Hire will sit with the experienced Installer and manager to review progress and evaluate performance.

Business should also document, as part of the Training Method any off-site live or self-paced training the New Hire will receive from the business or outside entities (e.g., manufacturers/distributors) as part of their role as well.

UI Step

Lastly, list

Training Method – Describe how your new hire will gain proficiency in each listed job duty. Include details on the specific training that will be provided.

OJT Hours – List

the number of hours per job duty and corresponding training your new hire will spend learning each task. This must be a thoughtful breakdown of hours. The total number of OJT hours shown must equal eligible hours for the program: 960 hours for a members of priority populations and disadvantaged communities (as defined by PON 3982) and

480

640 hours for individuals who are not members of priority populations or disadvantaged communities.

In the example I provided in the step above, 4 hours each day for two weeks would equate to 40 hours of On-the-Job training for System Installation.
