Armed with customer purchasing habits for stores and regions, the inventory analyst uses statistical analyses to determine the proper inventory levels for stores. Once an appropriate inventory level is determined, the analyst must set orders into motion and ensure that the inventory levels are consistently met.... The inventory analyst must order inventory from the company's suppliers and then work with suppliers to track the shipments. If shipping issues arise, the inventory analyst must work with the suppliers to appropriately resolve the situation. 2, record 1, English, - inventory%20analyst

The head of a shipping company for whom we designed training systems called requesting help. After discussing his situation, I suggested that he didn’t need new training systems and that the apprenticeship approach to training would work for him. On a boat, novice sailors have the time to ask questions and look over more experienced seamen's shoulders. Because of the close quarters and cultures of learning on a ship, it's easy to learn from the experts. And there are plenty of mechanisms in place to ensure that a neophyte's mistake doesn’t blow up the ship. Classroom training, or even e-learning, would have been an expensive and less-effective solution to this company's problem. 1, record 2, English, - apprenticeship%20approach
