DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSPORT COMPANY PERSONNEL THROUGH THE ORGANISATION OF A TRAINING HUB WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF AN ONLINE DISTANCE LEARNING PLATFORM

The article is devoted to the study of the personnel development system at a transport enterprise, during which the need to introduce a training hub and develop an online distance learning platform was established. It is important for employees holding managerial positions to constantly improve their level of qualification, since with the increase in the volume of official duties, as well as in the process of reorganisation or expansion of production activities, the content of tasks is constantly changing. In addition, the dynamic development of scientific and technological progress puts forward new standards and requirements for the management sphere. The authors propose to introduce a separate link of personnel development, which will be called a ‘training hub’. It is proposed to carry out the activities of the training hub through the creation and use of an online distance learning platform, which will significantly reduce financial and time costs, since offline training requires the hiring of a staff of trainers. A training hub requires significant investments in both financial and time resources, but its results far outweigh the costs incurred. It creates opportunities for satisfying the personal need for self-development, which, in turn, helps to reduce staff turnover. In addition, the implementation of such an approach has a positive impact on the overall productivity of the enterprise and ensures an increase in the level of professional competence of employees. A training hub can be formed by organising a separate team of trainers, which involves establishing a new structural unit at the enterprise. However, this approach requires significant financial costs. In order to optimise resources and reduce costs, it is advisable to introduce an online platform called Staff Development, which will be aimed at staff development. The introduction of the Staff Development online platform creates the preconditions for bringing the staff development process to a higher level. This will help to improve the efficiency of control over training processes, ensuring their transparency and orderliness. In addition, the system will enable the organisation of distance learning, which will significantly reduce costs by creating a specialised knowledge base. This database will include online records of all previous trainings, as well as a wide access to a library of materials for individual development and self-study.
