In-house training programs are learning opportunities developed by the organization in which they are used. An in-house trainingprogram is usually the second step in the training process and is often ongoing. In-house training programs can be training related to a specific job, such as using a particular kind of software. In a manufacturing setting, in-house training might include an employee learning how to use a particular type of machinery.
