Training manual

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 4 min

A training manual is a document, a book or booklet of instructions and information, used as an aid to learning a task, skill, or job.[1] Training manuals are widely used, including in business and the military.[citation needed]

A training manual may be particularly useful as:

  • an introduction to subject matter prior to training
  • an outline to be followed during training
  • a reference to subject matter after training
  • a general reference document
  • a system to reference[clarification needed]

A training manual may form an important part of a formal training program. For example, it may help ensure consistency in presentation of content. It may also ensure that all or most training information on skills, processes, and other information necessary to perform tasks is together in one place.[citation needed]

Training manuals can be designed to be used as:

  • Workbooks – used in training sessions to provide basic information, examples and exercises.[citation needed]
  • Self-paced guides: designed for trainees to work through on their own.
  • Reference manuals: for containing detailed information on processes and procedures.
  • Handouts: provide general information to support training done during the session.[citation needed]
  • Job aids: provide step-by-step instructions to be used in the workplace.
