user training

Teaching software operation

User training is instruction designed to help people operate software, equipment, or systems effectively.

Organizations provide user training when rolling out new tools or onboarding employees: The IT department scheduled user training for the new database system.

The term emphasizes practical skills over theoretical knowledge—getting users competent enough to do their jobs.
