LEARNING AND TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT PLANS

The success of McDonalds is dependent upon the world-class training which enables their employees to provide their customers the ultimate McDonalds experience. The training programmes are designed in such a way that the organization and employee both are benefitted. First stage of training is at Welcome Meetings. In which they set companys standards and expectations followed by a structured development programme that provides training in all areas of business. The majority of trainings are floor-based, on-the-job training and classroom training. New employee is taken through a systematic induction programme. Induction is done through one-on-one interaction as well as exposure to the customer through operation training, in which the trainee works with the trainer while they learn the operational skills necessary for running the restaurant from front counter to the kitchen areas. Trainees also have to attend classroom-based training sessions in which they complete workshops on quality, services and cleanliness. After initial training all employees receive ongoing training. This is done using observation Checklists for the station they are working at. This rating adds to the appraisal grading. They have several training forums. These forms help improve public speaking and presentation skills as well as encourage mutual growth. They are divided into four key programmes: Shift Management - developing trainee managers in the skills and techniques required to become effective in all aspects of running a shift. Systems Management - targeting second assistant and newly promoted first assistant managers. This programme covers all areas of McDonald's systems, increasing the manager's business knowledge. It also develops individual techniques. Restaurant Leadership - introducing managers to the key skills needed to become effective restaurant leaders e.g. team-building, communication, decision-making. Business Leadership - focusing restaurant/general managers on the need to develop a business strategy that encompasses both internal and external factors.

Duration of initial training depends on the status of trainee i.e. full or part-time. The comprehensive world class training program can be as short as 9 months or as long as 24 months on a part time basis, approximately 20 hours a week. McDonalds Management Development Curriculum takes new recruits from trainee manager to Restaurant Manger. This consists of on-the-job training and open learning development modules, courses and seminars at the Companys National and Regional Training Centers. This is aimed at persons aged 21 or over, either graduates or individuals with some previous management experience. It offers direct route into management.

Service is the key element of McDonald's operations. Every employee tries to provide 100 percent Total Customer Satisfaction (TCS) to every customer on every visit. TCS includes fast, friendly and attentive service, accuracy in order taking and serving the order. Training plays a crucial role in enabling quality service to the customer.
