On-the-Job Training Primer Session On-the-Job: that is where most of the learning in our industry happens every day, working side-by-side with a more experienced, or knowledgeable person. There is no doubting the skills of the trainer, but how many them ever had training on how to train? Just because you are able to do something very well, does not mean you are able to teach others. Otherwise, Wayne Gretzky would be the greatest coach of all time. This one-hour session will introduce a simple, yet amazingly effective method of training. Admission to this session is included with trade show registration. Joel Beatson CLP, Canadian Nursery Landscape Association, Milton, Ontario
