    Magnatag’s new magnetic Cross-Training whiteboard system organizes and displays employee training, qualification and proficiency levels in up to 18 skill disciplines. Placed where everyone can see it, workers are silently encouraged to learn and qualify in as many skills as they can. The Operations Manager of a Florida HVAC company says “We found everyone really takes pride in the number of magnets next to their name on the board. Each magnet represents a skill. It shows they care about their jobs. If you don’t have enough then it shows us you’re not doing enough to be part of our team, so we’ve tied this system into our yearly performance reviews. We set up the board and posted it on the floor so everyone can see who is qualified in different areas. If they see that someone needs help, then they do so. They don’t have to wait around to be told where they can go. I can’t say enough good things about this board. It is extremely easy to use and quick to update.”

    “Our customers tell us the Cross-Training board system serves as a scoreboard for their employee training program. It organizes and displays a matrix of people, skills and qualifications. The person with the most magnets next to their name is the most skilled,” says Magnatag spokesperson Christian Krapf. “It comes ready-to use with signal magnets in 10 colors to show skill qualifications, magnetic nameplate cardholders and everything needed to operate the system.”

        Built to stay like new for a lifetime of daily use, the magnetic dryerase Cross-Trainer is heat fused printed and comes in 4 sizes to hold up to 68 employees on a single board.
