Class: Basic Employability & Communication Skills


Introduction
Being an incredible painter doesn't automatically translate to an incredible employee. Painting employees must be provided with tools of a different kind in order to become a professional representative for your paint company. Basic Employability is designed to provide these tools by training employees how to be a direct extension of a company's mission statement and company policies in the field. The employee will learn how to align themselves with your company's core values and will learn the skills and attitude required to advance as a leader within a painting company. The Basic Employability module also instructs employees on how to appear and speak professionally in the field and with company customers along with learning how to diplomatically, critically and systematically solve various problems that might arise in the field. Employees will also be trained on proper relationship etiquette between company representatives and customers.
