We build it

Pinyon Learning develops training programs, learning resources, and performance support tools that prepare employees to work safely, efficiently, and confidently, whether onboarding new hires, developing experienced personnel, or supporting ongoing workforce development.

Capability Drives Performance - Not Just Training

Organizations invest in training because they want better performance. Yet many training programs focus on delivering information rather than helping employees apply knowledge on the job.

As technologies evolve, workforces change, and operational demands increase, organizations need practical learning solutions that prepare employees to perform—not simply complete training.

Common Signs Your Organization May Need Help

New employees take too long to become productive.
Training varies between instructors or locations.
Employees struggle to apply what they learned.
Procedures are followed inconsistently.
Critical tasks rely on informal coaching.
Existing training materials are outdated.
Performance expectations aren't clearly defined.

What We Build

Training & Learning Programs

Structured instructor-led or self-paced learning that helps employees develop the knowledge and skills needed to perform confidently.

E-Learning

Interactive online learning that delivers consistent, scalable training for employees across locations, shifts, and organizations.

Technical Procedures and Documentation

Research, capture, and documentation of clear, organized procedures and reference materials that support consistent, accurate execution of technical tasks.

Playbooks

Technical, step-by-step documentation for a very specific process. Example: Not just the steps to complete a painting livery (exterior paint design on an aircraft) but a specific paint design for a specific client.

Videos & Demonstrations

Visual learning resources that capture processes, techniques, and best practices that are often difficult to communicate through text alone. These can be technical or social.

Job Aids

Quick-reference tools, checklists, and decision guides that provide practical support at the moment of need.

Certification Programs

Structured qualification pathways that establish consistent performance standards and validate employee proficiency.

Job Profile Videos

Documentation and interviews around how a specific job is done, and the most challenging aspects. Helpful for new hires and internal transfers into difficult roles.

Representative Engagements

Aircraft Paint Lift Transition Training

Challenge
A new aircraft paint hangar introduced boom and scissor lifts, requiring experienced painters to adopt entirely new work methods while safely preparing new employees to work in the environment.
Approach
Conducted front-end analysis, researched established best practices at another facility, documented lift procedures and safety requirements, and developed a comprehensive 200-hour classroom and hands-on training program for two painter roles.
Outcome
Delivered a complete workforce training solution—including curriculum, instructor materials, lab exercises, procedures, graphics, photos, and videos—that prepared painters to safely and effectively transition to the new painting process.
Integrated Business Planning (IBP) Training

Challenge
A global consumer packaged goods company was implementing standardized Integrated Business Planning (IBP) processes and needed learning resources to help employees understand complex planning concepts, cross-functional responsibilities, and monthly decision-making workflows.
