create job descriptions and duty statements

such as wages, insurance, holiday and training,
- arrange and conduct staff training

and manage the organisation's staff
- give advice and information to management and employees on
equal opportunity, anti-discrimination and occupational health and safety programs

problems and industrial matters, and organise employee canteens, first aid and social

| In small organisations, corporate trainers
are responsible for all staffing matters. In large organisations they may specialise
in recruitment, wages and entitlements or staff training. |
To become a corporate trainer people begin on the job, as
clerks in the human resources management/personnel management field, and study part-time.
Others come to this kind of work after lots of organisational experience, seeking a
temporary or permanent career change. Appropriate tertiary courses include degrees in
industrial relations, psychology, management, commerce or economics.
Entry to courses usually requires successful completion of the HSC or ACT Year 12 or their
equivalent. 2u English and 2u maths are recomended.
