This document provides an overview of training and development. It discusses why training is important for organizations and outlines a systematic 9-step approach to training. This includes assessing needs, setting objectives, designing the program, selecting instruction methods, implementation, and evaluation. Examples are given for each step, such as conducting a needs analysis, writing objectives, and creating a sample training lesson plan. The goal is to provide a framework for developing effective internal training programs.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Your Objectives
Following this presentation you should be able to
complete the following objectives:
1. Describe why training is important and distinguish
amongst training, education and development
2. Define the ASK concept, and comment upon the
relative difficulty in developing people’s attitudes,
skills and knowledge
3. List the nine steps in the training process and be able
to explain each step with reference to hospitality
examples
4. Develop an appropriate training lesson plan.
4. 4
Do Organizations Need
Training
The answer is “YES”
However, we must
know the purpose and
functions of training
before we can use it.
6. 6
Training Needs
The reasons for not
making the 1,000
cars:
Not enough resources
Poor machines
Poor staff skills
As training experts we
must analyze the
situation to determine if:
Expected result too high
Target achievable
Is training the only way to
make it happen
Are there other factors.
7. 7
Exercise 1
Imagine you are the managing director of a
full service restaurant. One day you receive a
complaint letter from a guest reporting s/he
was not satisfied with the follow up
regarding their criticism of being
overcharged in one of your
restaurants.
Why was the complaint made?
Is there a training need?
8. 8
3 Reasons to Consider Conducting
an Internal Needs Analysis
1. Employee obsolescence/out-dated –
Technical advancements, cultural changes, new
systems, computerization
2. Career plateaus
Need for education and training programs
3. Employee Turnover
Development plan for new employees
9. 9
Importance of Training
Maintains qualified products / services
Achieves high service standards
Provides information for new comers
Refreshes memory of old employees
Achieves learning about new things; technology,
products / service delivery
Reduces mistakes - minimizing costs
Opportunity for staff to feedback / suggest improvements
Improves communication & relationships - better
teamwork
10. 10
Benefits of Training
Most training is
targeted to ensure
trainees “learn”
something they
apply to their job.
11. 11
What is Training?
Training is a systematic process through
which an organization’s human resources
gain knowledge and develop skills by
instruction and practical activities that result
in improved corporate performance.
12. 12
Differences between Training,
Education & Development
Training is short term, task oriented and targeted
on achieving a change of attitude, skills and
knowledge in a specific area. It is usually job
related.
Education is a lifetime investment. It tends to be
initiated by a person in the area of his/her interest
Development is a long term investment in human
resources.
13. 13
The ASK Concept
If we follow the GAP concept, training is simply
a means to use activities to fill the gaps of
performance between the actual results and the
expected results.
This GAP can be separated into 3 main themes
1. Attitude
2. Skills
3. Knowledge
14. 14
Exercise 2
Rank ASK by difficulty to develop in people
Attitude
Skills
Knowledge
•Easy
•Moderately difficult
•Most difficult
15. 15
Five Principles of Learning
Participation: involve trainees, learn by doing
Repetition: repeat ideas & concepts to help
people learn
Relevance: learn better when material is
meaningful and related
Transference: to real world using simulations
Feedback: ask for it and adjust training
methods to audience.
16. 16
A Systematic Approach
to Training
Key Concepts in Preparing a Training Plan
Before you train and develop people identify what:
They must know - before they can perform job
They should know - to improve performance
Would be nice for them to know – but not
necessary to perform duties.

Nine Steps in the Training
Process
1. Assessing training needs
2. Preparing training plan
3. Specifying training objectives
4. Designing the training program(s)
5. Selecting the instructional methods
6. Completing the training plan
7. Implementing the training program
8. Evaluating the training
9. Planning future training
19. 19
1) Assessing Training Needs
Conduct a training needs analysis by either one, or
both, of the following
External approach (company, guests, society)
Internal approach – using a staff opinion survey.
20. 20
Exercise 3
Imagine you are the manager of a factory
with 500 workers making ice cream for
export to Europe.
What information and evidence do you need
before you can say the employees need
training?
Try to list 5 ideas.
21. 21
Response to exercise 3
Accidents report
Sick leave report
Employee compensation
statistics
Product quality control
report
Wastage report
Efficiency report
Machinery out-of-order
report
Staff discipline report
Staff enquiries &
complaints
Guests complaints
Refusal of orders made
Quality of product report
Market needs & trends
Demographic data &
background of employees
22. 22
2) Preparing Training Plan
Consider whether to design a long (5-10 years),
medium (3-5 years) or short (1 year) term
plan.
Ask your self “What are we going to achieve
in the time period?”
Use a holistic approach by using a calendar
for inputting your training activities.
23. 23
Training Calendar Example
1 2 3 4 5 6 7...
Attitude
Train the trainer
Job competency
Sales techniques
Telephone manner
…
Training Area Month in the year
24. 24
Individual Plans
For individual personalized training, we must
assess the trainees’ weakness and strengths
first before setting up appropriate programs.
Training areas maybe tailor-made.
Trainee should receive an individual timetable
for self progress.
25. 25
3) Specifying Training Objectives
Training Objectives must be specific & measurable.
Why? Very difficult to measure effectiveness after
course is finished.
What should trainees be able to accomplish after
participating in the training program?
What is the desired level of such accomplishment,
according to industry or organizational standards?
Do you want to develop attitudes, skills, knowledge or
some combination of these three?
26. 26
4) Designing the
Training Program(s)
1. Program duration
2. Program structure
3. Instruction methods
4. Trainers qualification
5. Nature of trainees
6. Support resources –
materials, OHP,
classroom
7. Training location &
environment
8. Criteria & methods
for assessing
participant learning
and achievement
9. Criteria & methods
for evaluating the
program
27. 27
5) Selecting Instructional Methods
Note: This is the most important step
On-the job-training (OJT)
learn while you’re working
Off -the job-training
In house, training or classroom
External, consultancies or attending external classes
Independent bodies, such as government talks
Distance learning, from books or notes
Computer-assisted learning
Interactive-video training
Video conferencing, same as classroom except teachers and
students are in different locations.
28. 28
Exercise 4
Imagine you are the training manger of a hotel that
will open next year. Your GM asks you to develop a
training program that aims to boost the team spirit of
the newly formed Executive Committee Members.
Your GM suggests you organize a two-day course in a
resort location from 9 to 5 for both days.
Your task is to suggest 3 training methods that suit the
training theme described above.
Hint: this is attitude, not skills nor knowledge training
29. 29
Response to exercise 4
Remember your training
theme was to change the
individuals attitudes
Employ exercises that
trainees can:
Participate in
React to
Provide feedback in
Receive inspiration to
move on
Suitable training methods
you might have listed:
Role-play
Games
Simulation exercises
Discussion/debate formats
Experiential exercises
Self evaluation (e.g. video
tape trainees performance
& let them evaluate their
own behaviors).
30. 30
6) Completing the Training Plan
Target group – assess your audience
Topic – task, skill or attitude ingredient
Method – direct (one way communication) or
indirect (discussion, games, experimental
exercises…). Important as evaluation of trainees
usually lies on the perception on what they did in
the training session
Time – length, period, breaks important to consider
Location – away from the office?
31. 31
7) Implementing the Training
Program
Besides trainers qualifications and experience:
Participant selection
Group comfort - physical & psychological
Trainer enthusiasm & skills
Effective communication
Feedback mechanism
The need to learn new training skills
Preparation by trainers
32. 32
8) Evaluating the Training
Three Levels of Evaluation
1. Immediate Feedback
Survey or interview directly after training
2. Post-Training Test
Trainee applying learned tasks in workplace?
3. Post-Training Appraisals
Conducted by immediate supervisors of
trainees
33. 33
9) Planning Future Training
Last step in the training process
After taking all evaluated comments, trainers
should modify the programs to keep good
things and make suggested improvements
Remember, even with the same topic for
different trainees, trainers should address many
parts of the training process again and consider
new approaches.
