What is the Train-and-Hire model?
The Train-and-Hire model allows potential employees to learn the ins and outs of the job before the first day of work. This system lets organizations fill vacancies faster and lets students get the education they need in less time.
How does it work?
Step One: The Search
The Train-and-Hire program starts with a hunt for job seekers. MedCerts, an online training program, uses marketing recruitment channels to find candidates located near a partnering facility that meets your pre-specified qualifications. We can customize this process as much or as little as your team likes, by sending resumes for review or offering pre-training interviews.
Step Two: Training Begins
Once candidates are located and approved by the facility partnered with MedCerts, they can begin the training process. This means access to a flexible online platform, one-on-one support and motivation, exam prep, and personal Student Success Advisors.
Additionally, MedCerts students learn from content created in-house by subject matter experts, designers, and tech masters. National certification-issuing authorities review it for credibility, guaranteeing that potential hires access relevant, accurate information that will help them on the job.
Depending on the position being recruited for, organizations have the opportunity to provide any necessary hands-on, clinical training needed for the role after completion of the online MedCerts content. This allows you to train students to meet the specific needs and processes of your facility and teams.
Step Three: Get Hired
After completing training and passing certification exams, MedCerts students evolve into graduates and are ready for the final step of the Train-and-Hire model: getting hired.
By combining MedCerts recruitment and online curriculum with the hands-on, in-person skills specific to your organization, the Train-and-Hire model wins every time – filling staffing vacancies and raising employment rates.
Does the train-and-hire model work?
Yes. This method of recruiting and training employees proves beneficial for everyone involved. Train-and-Hire students save time and money on their education, and the more than 100 companies that rely on MedCerts for recruiting employees get capable workers.
The high retention rate among Train-and-Hire program graduates is also worth mentioning. Sanford Health, the largest rural health system in the U.S. says that 86 percent of the candidates hired through its MedCerts partnership still work for the organization nearly two years later. Statistics like these show that this model is more than just a quick fix to the staffing vacancy problem. It’s a long-term solution for employers and job seekers alike.
