Are you intrigued with performance technology, improvement and results? Do you work in a field related to training, human resource development, or OD? Then please join us!

PINOT contains a collection of short articles, experiences, and discussions about a variety of performance improvement interventions that go beyond training. These articles and discussions are contributed by graduate students, scholars, and practitioners and based on published literature and field practice, with perspectives from real people who are using the intervention in real places with real effects.

The Performance Improvement Non-Training solutions (PINOT) site was created by Dr. Allison Rossett and Dr. Rebecca Frazee as a project for students in their Performance Technology classes in the Department of Educational Technology at San Diego State University.

We do not hate training. In fact, we are fond of it, in all its manifestation. See a recent
article about how training can help organizations cope with the recession. That said, this site is devoted to non-training interventions -- an excellent pairing with training and development.
