3. Training:
Training is an organised procedure for
increasing the knowledge and skill of
people for a specific objective which in
general results in the change of behaviour
and attitude
The action of teaching a person or animal
a particular skill or type of behaviour.
7. Training Effectiveness:
The effectiveness of training is a measurement of
learning. It is determined by comparing post-test scores
with pre-test scores and then measuring the net change.
There are several methods to measure this.
8. Why Training?
Knowledge and skill addition
Change in attitude and behaviour
Improvement in the performance of work
Better performance of work
Reduces wastes and the number of accidents
Retaining and Motivating Employees
Creating an Efficient and Effective Organization.
9. Its cons :
Information changes and whatever you learn today will
probably change by next month or next week, so what’s
the purpose of training something that in time will no
longer be relevant or accurate. You’ll just have to do the
training all over again.
The wrong person is doing the training. It takes a special
person to be a trainer; they have to have a passion for
training and they have to know what they’re talking
about.Employees being trained can quickly ascertain if
the person doing the training is knowledgeable,
competent, and approachable. The wrong trainer can do
more harm than good.
10. • Probably the biggest disadvantage to employee training
is that it is too expensive. Someone has to be paid to
do the training either externally or internally. Whomever
is doing the training is being taken away from some
other job responsibility, so rather than productive work
being accomplished elsewhere it is being spent on
training. When employees are hired, they are hired to
do a job, and typically they are needed quickly.
11. Mandates of Effective Training:
The objective of training should be in interest of the
organization.
The deliverance should be specific, interesting and should
meet the objective of training.
The level of acceptance of the audience should be positive.
The facilitator should make the sessions interactive and
activity oriented.
The receiver should be adaptable and listen empathetically
instead of being reluctant and a by stander.
