What are the courses like?
Courses range from 1-6 hours in length, and consist of 10-30 lessons, running about 10-15 minutes long. This makes learning accessible in the field, during training luncheons or at home. They are entirely self-paced, so an employee can learn multiple times a week or once a day based on their schedule. At the end of the course, a final exam is taken to assess knowledge and understanding. A certificate of completion is presented with a passing score of 70% on the final exam.
-
Once enrolled, how do employees access their courses?
Once enrolled, employees will receive an email with login instructions on how to access the courses. Afterwards, employees can access their courses anytime, anywhere.
-
Are your courses code-compliant, and is the training still relevant if we build solely in one state?
Great building starts with a solid understanding of the fundamentals. MT Copeland’s training focuses on these fundamentals, providing the student a solid foundation in their trade. When building or industry codes are referenced, our training focuses on how to use the code to find the relevant information rather than simply learning version specific code requirements. This approach allows the tradesperson to stay current with the most applicable code requirements throughout their career.
-
How can we train our employees?
First, identify the skills and knowledge gaps within your organization and set clear goals for the programs you offer. From there, have your employees select courses in our library that are relevant to their roles and career aspirations. Encourage employees to take advantage of training opportunities by highlighting the benefits and offering reimbursement options or provide company cards for self-managed learning. We offer discounted rates for 6 or more employees enrolled in a single course, automatically applied at checkout.
-
How do I select which courses are best for my team if some individuals are new to the trades, and others are more experienced?
Employees can select courses “a la carte” for $75 or $225 or get an all-access pass to the entire library for $99/month. You can offer reimbursement options when they show a completion certificate or provide company cards for self-managed learning. For instance, your more junior carpenters could purchase the entire library and your leads could purchase an individual course like advanced roof cutting course or contract writing.
-
My employee has left the company, can I assign their seat to someone else on the team?
Yes, you can reassign their seat to another employee. You just need to login to your MT Copeland account, remove the previous employee and add in a new email address. Please reach out to support@mtcopeland.com if you have any questions.
customer story: The cleary company
Becoming a skilled carpenter can take 10-20 years of on-the-job experience. But that was time the Cleary Company didn’t have. Their lead carpenters would retire in 5-10 years. And their younger carpenters expected faster career growth and rewards for hard work. Thomas King, their Director of Construction, needed to train their new, inexperienced employees more quickly.
The Cleary Company used on-demand video curses to expedite the learning of specific trade skills. By providing this fundamental building knowledge from day one, they saw a 7-14 day reduction in training time for each new course their employee take, and saved $8600 per month by reducing time teaching the basics on site.
