Unlike traditional “soft skills” training, the course is tailored specifically to a manufacturing audience, with shop-specific visuals and examples in the content. “Based on what we heard from our customers, a number of new supervisors are promoted from shop-floor positions. They have the technical skills, but they need a solid overview of the softer skills. We designed these classes with that dynamic in mind,” says Greg Herlevi, director of content at the vendor.
