PDCA cycle for training completion

This PDCA example treats training completion as a process that can be improved through a limited test. In Plan, the coordinator identifies overdue training and chooses a target. In Do, one department receives a weekly reminder schedule rather than changing communication for every employee at once. Check looks at completion rate and the response to the reminder, which helps explain whether the schedule is working. In Act, a successful schedule becomes standard work; an unsuccessful schedule is revised for the next cycle. The same diagram can be used for safety training, onboarding modules, certification renewals, or policy acknowledgments. It also gives managers a clear point to discuss barriers before the next reminder cycle begins.

Preguntas frecuentes

Preguntas habituales

Why pilot reminders with one department?

A limited pilot shows whether the message and timing work before the process is applied more broadly.

What should be checked besides completion rate?

Review the response to reminders and any reported barriers, so the team understands why completion changed or did not change.

What does standardizing mean in this cycle?

It means documenting the successful reminder schedule and using it as the normal process for the relevant training.
