Reporting in Work Integration
Written reports are among the most important reporting tools for institutions in work integration. Over the course of the counseling, counselors and job coaches write minutes and reports addressed at internal and external bodies with the aim of documenting the process. These reports must comply with official standards, which takes time and brings about uncertainties, delays, and inefficient resource use. Good minutes and reports don’t only increase efficiency; they also guide the procedure and improve efficiency. Investing in optimizing the quality of reports pays off on several levels. We help clients improve the quality of reporting procedures and reports with lasting effects.
Assessment
Efficient report writing increases service quality and employee satisfaction at once. Especially when the counseling covers an extended period of time and includes different document types, it is difficult for counselors and job coaches to efficiently structure the information and use factual language throughout. We assess notes and reports regarding content, structure, and language with a keen eye on the mission and goals to ensure employees make the best of their resources.
Quality Management
Reports in work integration are part of a reporting system that is highly dynamic. Counselors and coaches discuss different career paths in intelligible everyday language while documenting it in factual language. We advise clients regarding guidelines, assess current documents, and provide solutions for clients to optimize proceedings and reports. If needed, we develop manuals and templates tailored to the institution.
Standardization of Reports
In order to optimize data management and simplify processes, it’s essential to standardize the reporting. This applies to both internal as well as external reports, such as the reports by service providers to cantonal bodies. We support the standardization of reporting by identifying the information that is relevant and designing templates that ensure efficient reporting.
Report Writing and Editing
When workload increases or the quality of your existing reports doesn’t meet official standards, we help with customized support. Specifically, we can take care of writing specific reports, edit existing reports, or write pertinent executive summaries for important subsequent projects or applications.
In-House Workshops
We give customized in-house workshops for teams to get hands-on report writing training. The workshops include a variety of relevant topics, like the selection and structure of contents needed for each report type. They also include exercises to practice the description of contents in accurate jargon, as well as general tips on how to enhance the writing process. The goal of the workshops is to improve the quality of proceedings and reports in line with the institution’s mission and to increase efficiency, motivation, and employee satisfaction.
