Hafner is committed to using technology to enhance learning in the workplace. The company regards the development of its employees as key to gaining and maintaning its competitive advantage in the textile industry.
Document Highlights
Realizing that developing its own computer-based training would require additional expertise and resources, Hafner teamed up with the Textiles Human Resources Council (THRC) in 1998. The result was the development of ‘Textile Manufacturing Basics’, a fully bilingual, computer based training program on CD-Rom, with a 200-page guide. The program is not only used in textile manufacturing workplaces, but also other organizations that work closely with the textiles industry. Hafner’s collaboration with the THRC was recognized by the Office of Learning Technologies in 1999. This partnership was deemed to be one of 10 best practice case studies in which the successful use of ‘learnware’ was introduced, to further the appropriate and effective use of technology-based training in the workplace.
