Overall, the training for store #23 went smoothly. The trainer arrived Tuesday morning and adjusted the configurations within the Recycler. Next, the trainer provided training to the Super-Users, and the Recycler was replenished. The trainer provided a large training session to members of management/ leads with 7-10 individuals present. This training was followed by staggered smaller training sessions throughout the day.
Wednesday morning, the trainer provided ‘start of shift’ training. When he arrived at 8:00 AM, the members of management had noticed that every time a till was dispensed the Recycler would take 4-6 minutes to finish the transaction and print the receipt.

3.) Are there any areas of improvement or new approaches we can take moving forward?

Slightly more support on the Cabela’s specific (Recycler-related) procedures would have been very useful to the trainer, and to the store. However, the training for the week went smoothly using the documentation

It was truly a challenge being there, and I loved every minute of it!…
