2. What is training?
• Training is basically a systematic procedure for teaching technical
know-how to the employees with the aim of increasing their
knowledge and skill for doing particular jobs.
• Training is aimed at making the employees do their job effectively or
efficiently.
• It is a short term process.
• Targeted in most cases for non-managerial personnel

4. What is development?
• Development is any learning activity, which is directed
towards future needs rather than present needs, and which
is concerned more with career growth than immediate
performance.
• It is generally aimed at helping mangers better understand
and solve problems and make decisions.
• It is a long term educational process.

5. Importance of training
• Trained workers can work more efficiently
• There will be fewer accidents
• Wastage can be eliminated
• Helps employees to secure promotions easily
• Requirement of supervision not needed for trained
employees.
• Helps create a better corporate image.

6. Need for training
• Increased use of technology
• Labour turnover
• Need for additional hands
• New employees- induction, apprentice
• Promotion, career development
• Increasing the employee morale
• For reducing grievances and minimizing accident rates

7. Training methods
• On the job training
Method by which employees are given hands on experience
with instructions from their supervisor or other trainer.
Employees are trained at the actual job location.
• Job rotation
Job rotation is a strategy where employees rotate between
jobs at the same business. Employees take on new tasks at a
different job for a period of time before rotating back to their
original position.

8. • Apprentice Training
Apprenticeship is a combination of on-the-job training (OJT) and
related classroom instruction under the supervision of a journey-level
craft person or trade professional in which workers learn the practical
and theoretical aspects of a highly skilled occupation.
• Mentoring
A mentor is a guide who can help the mentee to find the right direction
and who can help them to develop solutions to career issues. A mentor
should help the mentee to believe in herself and boost his/her
confidence.
• Internship Programs
An internship is a period of work experience offered by an employer to
give students and graduates exposure to the working environment,
often within a specific industry, which relates to their field of study.

9. • Lectures
Large number of trainees can be taught at once.
It is a cost efficient method of training. It is more effective if
training need is the same across participants.
• Audiovisual material
It is good for capturing student interest. After the initial
investment, cost is minimal.
• Conference
Method in which a trainee and a trainer hold one-to-one
discussions on the subject matter to be imparted or taught.
