The Instructor-Free Training Department
- Westinghouse Hanford Co., Richland, WA (United States)

Today`s skills will be obsolete in the year 2000. That workforce will require a much higher degree of technical sophistication and adaptability. Enormous demands will be made of DOE contractor training departments even as federal deficit reduction actions increasingly restrict resources and as the emergence of electronic performance support systems appear to diminish the need for training. True training will still be required but they must, and can, train better, faster, and cheaper. These goals are attainable by implementing the implications of performance-based training and by focusing on learning instead of on teaching. (Indeed, ability to learn efficiently and rapidly will be the premier talent in the next century.) Training Departments must dedicate themselves to changing performance, not to teaching classes. The best training department of the future will have no {open_quotes}instructors{close_quotes}. Trainingforce 2000 will look and function much differently.
