COURSE OBJECTIVE:

$1.$ Cutco sales representatives need to learn

about the company$$s newest products.

However, it would be a logistical nightmare

to provide training at every branch.

$2.$ In order to graduate from the College of

Business, students must master the

principles of management, marketing, BIA,

finance, and operations management.

$3.$ Over $50\%$ of new restaurants fail. If

entrepreneurs could practice making

business decisions $($e$.$g$.,$ introducing new

products, dealing with fluctuating food

costs, staffing a restaurant$)$ before they

open their doors, the success rate might be

higher.

$4.$ Student teachers need to practice their

teaching techniques and classroom

management skills. However, parents worry

these $$rookies$$ may have an adverse effect

on their children$$s learning environment.

$5.$ Terminating an employee is the worst part

of HR$.$ If HR practitioners could watch a

videotaped termination, mimic what they

observed, and receive feedback on their

performance, they might be more prepared

to deliver an appropriate termination.

$6.$ Creighton employees must complete sexual

harassment training. Not only is the training

budget limited$,$ but the training must fit a

variety of work schedules.

$7.$ Warren Buffet believes politicians need to

work together to help the economy

recover. If Democrats and Republicans

completed a ropes course before session

started, they might learn a thing or two

about teamwork. Riiight.:$)$

$8.$ Welders must know the basics of metal

cutting, drilling, and AC and DC electrical

principles. However, they also need many

hours of actual practice.
