Technical Training

Management and Corporate Training

There is an old adage, "Those that can DO. Those that can’t TEACH." Whether that is true or not isn’t important. It IS true that "Those who HAVE DONE, love to TEACH."

Mr. Johnny J. Weissmuller has been a technical writer, a programmer, a trainer, a supervisor, a systems analyst, a project manager, an occupational analyst, a proposal manager, a technology-transfer focal point, and a CEO for a small corporation for nearly twenty years. Mr. Weissmuller started out as the President of the Future Teachers of America club in his high school – intending to teach math in junior high, but the military draft altered his course. Because of his military experience, Mr. Weissmuller has become an internationally recognized expert on occupational analysis – identifying essential elements any job family, surveying current needs, and recommending to management the recruiting needs, the accession strategies, the training plan, key promotion elements, and managing skills data bases to help staff emerging needs.

While Mr. Weissmuller uses heavy-duty survey and analysis tools in his professional roles, all products are exported to standard Microsoft Office programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, FrontPage, and Publisher. With his mathematics background, Mr. Weissmuller is highly versatile in the applications he is called upon to serve. Most recently, Mr. Weissmuller has been auditing and revising Financial Models (Excel 2002) where the investment levels were $100 Million, $250 Million, and $500 Million portfolios.

In his role as an occupational analyst, Mr. Weissmuller performed a "work load" project in Vienna Austria and "pay equity" project for a globally-dispersed workforce -- both were reported using Excel 2000. A few years back, Mr. Weissmuller headed the contractor team that created the data base (Access 97) of Enlisted Common Soldier Tasks – a survey 20,000 soldiers worldwide to re-write the little green book given to every soldier in boot camp. This project was laid out and managed using Microsoft Project 98. All final reports are written in Word 97/2000, briefed using PowerPoint, and formatted for Web/CD-ROM delivery using FrontPage 97/2000.

Mr. Weissmuller doesn’t just "teach" Microsoft products, he uses them for real world applications.

 With Mr. Weissmuller's high-level focus and international contacts, it was clear that his most natural role was that of a management consultant rather than an employee for any given organization. Mr. Weissmuller's "occupational analysis" projects often turned into organizational mission statement sessions with purpose and strategies on the table.  Primary results from occupational analysis drive the development of viable career paths, the establishment of entry requirements, and appropriate training and testing emphasis. Mr. Weissmuller has used results of the international 1991 Network of Occupational Analysts (NOA) survey to design curricula used at The Ohio State University and train occupational analysts and executives in his own classes. As a small business owner, Mr. Weissmuller has also experienced the real-life nature of working with employees, vendors, subcontractors, and governmental/regulatory agencies and hence knows the value and need for soft-skills in both the classroom and the workplace.

After 9/11 caused many of his government clients to redirect budgets from "HR" topics to security, Mr. Weissmuller dove into corporate training and researched Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).  The commercial market was moving into SAP, PeopleSoft, Oracle, and other large-scale ERP approaches.
