FAQ

Is this the same as an HR Generalist who "also does training"?

No. A generalist might run one onboarding session a month as one task among many. This role exists because training has become a full-time job on its own, usually once headcount or turnover reaches a point where informal training no longer scales.

What should we look for beyond a training certificate?

Ask them to actually run a five-minute mock training segment during the interview. It tells you far more than any certificate about whether they can hold a room and explain things clearly.

How specific should the job ad be about topics they will teach?

Quite specific. List the actual programs (new hire onboarding, safety compliance, customer service skills, management training) instead of just writing "training programs". Vague scope is the top reason good L&D candidates skip an ad.
