The trainings are conducted under the guidance of Mr. Ravi Zutshi. An MBA with a degree in engineering, having over 20 years of experience in the industry training for TQM and ISO compliance.

An ESD control program can be ineffective despite the use of right materials and existence of right procedures. In any company-big or small, the role of training in successful ESD control program is of paramount significance. Training is at the core of every successful program and is a regulatory requirement. Our training programs provide employees with the skill levels they require to handle ESD control programs

While every company has a different set of requirements with regard to their ESD control programs, there are certain elements that are vital to every successful training program.

1. Successful training programs cover all affected employees.
We train employees at every level of the organization from the line employees to department heads, management personnel, and executives in the process. We also recommend that subcontractors as well as suppliers should also be trained in ESD control. We also develop special training modules specific to job disciplines , educational levels, and organizational entities. These modules are developed with a special understanding of the needs and responsibilities of each level and entity.

2. Effective training is comprehensive and consistent.
Our training procedures covers specific procedures with special emphasis on the physics of the problem as well as the benefits of the program. The training content is also inclusive of topics such as ESD fundamentals fundamentals, organization specific ESD details, and the organization's ESD Program. We also develop the modules with a special understanding of the role of every employee with respect to the ESD plan.

3. Use a variety of training tools and techniques.
From live instruction to video manuals as well as in-house instructors, there a variety of tools and techniques for conducting training. They can be chosen as per the needs and requirements of every organization. A central repository of materials can be maintained to help employees keep track of questions that occur beyond the gamut of the formal training sessions.

4. Test, certify and retrain
Training should assure material retention as well as emphasize the importance of the effort in the same. Properly implementation, testing and certification motivates employees. Refresher training is a sustained effort at reinforcing and reminding of the need for improved procedures and a system can be established for the same.

5. Feedback, auditing, and measurement
There should be motivation and the mechanisms for program improvement. There is also a need for sharing the data on yield & productivity with every employee. This demonstrates effectiveness of the program and their efforts. There should be a tracking data sourced for indicating the time for retraining and need for modifications. The design and delivery of every effective ESD training program is as important as the procedures and materials used.

While developing and implementing ESD control programs is important, there is always a need for continuous review, auditing, analysis, and obtaining feedback for sustained efficiency and success of any program. The need for identification of the program's ROI & justification of savings realized from the program. Regular auditing is a key factor in the successful management of any ESD control program. Regular auditing helps in

An ESD audit measures performance against the defined parameters of standards and procedures. It is a periodic review that covers every aspect of a ESD control program covering employees, materials and procedural requirements.

Effective ESD auditing revolves around certain factors such as:

There are various types of ESD audits:
