 Learning principles can be applied
to job training:
 The trainee must be motivated to learn
 The trainee must be able to learn
 The learning must be reinforced
 The training must provide for practice of the
material
 The material presented must be meaningful
 The material must be communicated
effectively
 The training taught must transfer to the job
10
Human Resource Management
Training Process
 Identify Training Needs
 Set Training Objectives
 Evaluation Criteria
 Choose Training Materials and
Methods
 Conduct Training
 Evaluate Training
11
Human Resource Management
Needs Assessment
 Needs assessment is a process used
to determine if, and what type of,
training is necessary
 Organizational analysis: examining a firm’s
mission, resources, and goals
 Person analysis: determining who needs
training and their readiness for training
 Task analysis: identification of the tasks,
knowledge, skill, and behaviors that should
be included in a training program

Human Resource Management
Needs Assessment
 The information gathering provides a
profile of:
 What type of training is needed
 Who should be trained
 When training should be conducted
 Whether training is the preferred approach
 Instructional objectives lead to the
selection and design of instructional
programs:
 If assessment and program design are done
carefully, training and development can be
monitored and evaluated
15
Human Resource Management
Training Needs and Objectives

20
Human Resource Management
On-The-Job Training
 This is the most widely used method
of training
 Although OJT is simple and relatively
inexpensive, hidden costs can include:
 Damaged machinery
 Unsatisfied customers
 Misfiled forms
 Poorly taught workers
21
Human Resource Management
Computer-Based Instruction
 Benefits
 Self-paced
 Adaptive to different
needs
 Can be customized
 Easy to deliver
 Usually less expensive to
administer
 Can be conducted when
convenient for employee
 Drawbacks
 Learners must be self-
motivated
 Cost of producing
online, interactive
materials
 Lack of interaction
with others may work
against needs and
preferred learning
styles
22
Human Resource Management
Case Method
 The case method uses a written description of a
real decision-making situation
 Managers are asked to study the case in order to:
 Identify the problems
 Analyze the problems
 Propose solutions
 Choose the best solution
 Implement it
 More learning takes place if there is interaction
with the instructor
23
Human Resource Management
Role Playing
 Each person is assigned a role in a situation and is
asked to react to other players’ role-playing
 The player is asked to react to the stimuli as that
person would
 Players are provided with background information
on the situation and the players
 A script is usually provided
 The success of this method depends on the ability
of the players to play the assigned roles believably
 Role-playing can help a manager become more
aware of, and more sensitive to, the feelings of
others
24
Human Resource Management
In-Basket Technique
 The participant is given typical items from a
specific manager’s mail, email, and telephone
list
 Important and pressing matters are mixed in with
routine business matters
 The trainee is analyzed and critiqued on:
 The number of decisions made in the time
allotted
 The quality of the decisions
 The priorities chosen for making them
 To generate interest, in-basket materials must
be:
 Realistic, job-related, and not impossible to make
decisions on 25
Human Resource Management
Behavior Modeling
 There are four steps in this process:
Modeling of effective behavior (films)
Role playing
Social reinforcement (role playing)
Transfer of training to the job
 Modeling offers promise for
developing leadership skills, if used
in conjunction with videotape
methods
Research evidence is generally positive
26
Human Resource Management
Programmed Learning
 Advantages
 Reduced training time
 Self-paced learning
 Immediate feedback
 Reduced risk of error for
learner
Presenting
questions, facts,
or problems to
the learner
Allowing the
person to
respond
Providing
feedback on the
accuracy of
answers
27
Human Resource Management
Choosing the Best T&D Method
 Choice of delivery method depends on:
 Organizational culture and values
 T&D objective and content
 Profiles of trainees and trainers
 Financial and technological resource availability
 Time
 Location
28
Human Resource Management
Choosing the Best T&D Method
Developments occurring with regard to
delivery methods
 Shift toward on-the-job training
 Increased efficiency
 Exploitation of technology to aid learning
 Increased emphasis on teams
 Focus on mentoring
29
Human Resource Management
Evaluation
Integral part of overall training program
Provides feedback on effectiveness of
training program
Evaluation criteria should be established
in tandem with and parallel to training
objectives
30
Human Resource Management
Four Levels of Training Evaluation
31
Human Resource Management
Impediments to Effective T & D
 Commitment lacking
 Inadequate budget allocation
 Universities award only degrees, not skills
 Poaching of trained workers
