Train the people performing or supporting the process as needed.
The purpose of this generic practice is to ensure that people have the necessary skills and expertise to perform or support the process.
Appropriate training is provided to those who will be performing the work. Overview training is provided to orient people who interact with those who perform the work.
Examples of methods for providing training include self study; self-directed training; self-paced, programmed instruction; formalized on-the-job training; mentoring; and formal and classroom training.
Training supports the successful execution of the process by establishing a common understanding of the process and by imparting the skills and knowledge needed to perform the process.
The organization should conduct a training needs analysis to understand its process training needs at both the organization and project levels. Then, appropriate training vehicles can be identified and provided to minimize process
execution related risks.
Refer to the Organizational Training process area for more information about developing skills and knowledge of people so they can perform their roles effectively and efficiently.
