I need a communication plan for the information for a project I am working on. The scenerio for this problem is included below.

.

Your employer, LRH Manufacturing, creates a device used in various medical products. All work done on the device must meet government regulations and guidelines. One of the regulations focuses on these points:
? Staff training
? Maintenance of accurate training records
? Mandated company training
? Records of training attendance

.

Executive management has decided the current training management system is unacceptable because all training documentation is captured manually and stored in a binder. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the accuracy of the information.

As a result, executive management has announced a company-wide initiative?the implementation of a new web-based training management system. All personnel will be responsible for using the system to sign up for training and to monitor their involvement in regulated product projects.

.

To oversee this responsibility, executive management has created a new position, Web-Based Training Project Manager. The responsibilities of this position will be to select and oversee the training and implementation of the new training management system, as well as monitor company-wide training attendance and identify people who are out of compliance.

.

Executive management anticipates some departments will show resistance. Departments, such as Manufacturing, will be required to use tools they have never used or refused to use before. Because instructional designers in the Training Department develop instructor-led training, they often have shunned implementation of any web-based system. Also, Department managers’ responsibilities will increase. They will be required to learn how to use the system to assign courses to their direct reports and monitor the timely completion of the courses.

.
