Alabama Industrial Development
Training
Alabama Industrial Development Training (AIDT) can deliver a wide range of customized technical pre-employment and
on-the-job training programs - from welding to software engineering - at no cost
to a qualifying business.
Pre-employment and on-the-job training
These services are developed with your needs in mind and are provided at no charge if you meet criteria for starting
wages and number of jobs created. Support for on-the-job training is available
to companies that meet other criteria.
Pre-employment training programs can be conducted in your plant, in AIDT
mobile training units outfitted to simulate your plant setup, or in classrooms
and labs at the City of Mobile center.
Total Training System
Quality workforce development for new and existing Alabama industries
requires quick and complete response. AIDT provides on-the-spot training
even before you have a place to provide on-the-job training. Instruction can
be conducted in your plant, at one of our three training centers located
strategically throughout the state, at leased facilities or in one of our
mobile training units that can be trucked to your plant site. Any of these
locations, including the mobile units, can be customized with the equipment
and training materials needed to meet your needs for classroom and hands-on
training.

Training Mobility
AIDT's fleet of mobile training units brings training to any company
site. Additional space is leased when training needs require it. Mobile
Training Units, usually referred to as MTUs, are the primary means for
providing quick response when training demands must be met immediately.
When a large set-up of specialized equipment is required, temporary
leases offer the opportunity to establish model manufacturing settings.
Appropriate hardware is deployed from existing inventory, developed and
built by AIDT or bid and purchased as required. The MTUs are customized to
meet the particular needs of a company, such as:
Management Training
AIDT offers a comprehensive array of internally developed training
programs as well as internationally recognized management, quality and
leadership training. The Concepts of Management and Total Quality Management
seminars complement AIDT's technical skills training programs by providing
supervisors and managers training in basic human relations and leadership
skills. The Total Quality Leadership (TQL) seminar teaches managers skills
and methods for applying traditional communication and motivation concepts
for the successful transition to a TQM work environment.
Other training programs available through AIDT teach management and
interpersonal skills required for Total Quality Management, team and
participative management environments.
AIDT provides consultation and training to assist in ISO 9000
implementation and auditing. Several two-year colleges also provide AIDT's
ISO 9000 Internal Auditor training program to support companies seeking
international recognition for a consistent quality management system.
