Keep them coming...trying to get some answers from my organization...on what you listed and a few more... It's something of a "cart before the horse" project. There are no training modules designed or written out, so I'm essentially creating a rough draft at this point of not only the manual, but the training. I went through sales training of sorts--more like "random episodic learning"--so this project motivates me to save others from that plight! The hard part is organizing it all. The fun part is helping determine training needs and goals and best practices in a small and dynamic, growing and successful company.
