Training Within Industry

Description

Its founder Victor Chinn established Training Within Industry in 1985. During the late 1970, s Victor moved to Africa from England and carried out development work for the various national training boards in South Africa. Having been trained in The UK it was very evident to Victor that far too much emphasis was being placed on teaching courses in classroom situations and not enough emphasis on LEARNING JOB COMPETENCY at the workplace.

In 1985 Victor formed TRAINING WITHIN INDUSTRY to do something about lifting productivity in Africa. In 1985 Victor Chinn and his team established the Supervisor training programme Acorn ©, a first in Production training in Southern Africa. The Supervisor learned this programme on the job as she practiced her daily craft. As the supervisor learned each competency to mastery she quickly developed confidence to take on other tasks and slowly her productivity increased.

A phenomenon in Learning at the time, Acorn © was to become the flagship programme for TWI and train over 2500 Supervisors Internationally over the next 15 years.
