Most employers understand that good employee training is essential for an organization's success. A wide variety of training platforms and media are utilized by employers. Training topics may include general skills such as literacy, technical skills, orientation about the organization, and programs designed to prevent legal problems, such as sexual harassment training and ethics training. Training programs must not discriminate, and time spent in training may be compensable. Federal law requires training in many health and safety related areas. The federal Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds numerous job skill training programs that are coordinated through individual states.
