CHAPTER 2: INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC

2.1) TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

4 | Page

In earlier years the new workers were acquiring the necessary job skills & knowledge from
experience employees. Typically they were called as Helpers. Later because of advanced
technologies to face the rapid changes & retain the continuity of experienced & new comers in
an organization the need of Training has emerge out as a essential parameter. Major systematic
training activities in the industries started during the period of World War I & II. Especially
noteworthy were training-within-industry (TWI) & the Engineering, science & management War
Training (ESMWT) programmes of World War II. The TWI program trained people in industry
in procedures for teaching job skills to others, in developing better work methods & industrial
relations. The ESMWT consisted largely of specialized technical courses offered by college &
technical schools.
Training is an important function of the human resource management. Training is organized
procedure by which people learn knowledge &/or skills for a definite purpose. It is not correct to
assume that the candidates employed after selection will learn on the job on their own. Training
is slow process & the candidates learn the things at varying paces. Training is never a waste of
time & money but an investment for efficient & effective working. Training is a continuous
process where the objective of training is achieved to change in the behaviour of the trained
candidate is observed. Training is a vital & necessary activity to newly recruited candidate,
whole personality in the organization.
Training the newly recruited employees is the next important step in human resource
management process. Systematic & scientific training is the cornerstone of a sound manpower
management. Training is the process of increasing the knowledge, skills, aptitude & ability of an
employee for doing the specific job in an efficient manner. It implies imparting technical
knowledge, manipulative skills, problem solving ability & positive attitude in the employees.
The resource use up in human resource training is an investment in human assets & the skills
acquired in the process is an advantage for both the enterprise & the employees.
Training is different than education & development. Training is not broad like education & does
not carry an emphasis on individual growth. The term education is wider in scope & more
general, while training is work oriented & is aim imparting specific skills for doing a particular
job. Development, in contrast is considered to be more general than training & more oriented to
individual needs & it is most often aimed toward management people.

Training:
The aim of any training programme is to provide instruction and experience to new employees to
help them reach the required level of performance in their jobs quickly and economically. For the
existing staff, training will help develop capabilities to improve their performance in their
present jobs, to learn new technologies or procedures, and to prepare them to take on increased
and higher responsibilities in the future.
Development:

2.8) TRAINING PROCESS
8 | Page

Training process consists of six steps:

Organizational Objectives and Strategies

Organizational Objectives & Strategies:
Assessment of Training Needs

Establish of Training Goals

Designing Training Programme

Implementation Training Programme

Evaluation of result

1. Organizational Objectives & Strategies:

The first step in training process in an organization is the assessment of its objectives &
strategies. What business are we in? At what level of Quality do we wish to provide this product
or service? Where we want to be in the future? It is only after answering these & other related
questions that the organization must assess the strengths & weaknesses of its human resources.
2. Assessment of Training Needs:
Organization spends vast sums of money (usually as a percentage on turnover) on training &
development. Before committing such huge resources, organization would do well to assess the
training needs of their employees.
3. Establishment of Training Goals:
Once training needs are assessed, training & development goals must be established. Without
clearly-set goals, it is not possible to design a training & development program &, after it has
been implemented, there will be no way of measuring its effectiveness. Goals must be tangible,
verifiable, & measurable. This is easy where skills training involved.
4. Designing Training & Development Programme:
Every training & development programme must address certain vital issues:
i. Who participates in the programme?
ii. Who are the trainers?
9 | Page

iii. What methods & techniques are to be used for training?

iv. What should be the level of training?
v. What learning principles are needed?
vi. Where is the programme conducted?
5. Implementation of the Training Programme:
Once the training programme designed, it needs to be implemented. Programme implementation
involves action on the following lines:
i. Deciding the location & organising training & other facilities.
ii. Scheduling the training programme.
iii. Conducting the programme.
iv. Monitoring the progress of trainees.
6. Evaluation of Result:
Since huge sums of money are spend on training & development, has been useful must be judge/
determined. Evaluation helps determine the results of the training & development programme.

training is no longer limited to develop knowledge & competencies in individuals.
This topic gave me an opportunity to study how the training programmes are planned effectively

Thapathali, Kathmandu, my project lack in some of the following heads. Where there is a chance
of further elaborating study on the same subject.

Some information being very sensitive as far as organization is concerned is left

untouched and not mentioned in any way.

Top-level strategic type of decisions and information too are not taken under study to
avoid any favor to the business counter parts.

CHAPTER 7: CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Recommendations
32 | P a g e

Decentralization of training will make the training convenient for employee.

To update employees knowledge and skill suitable training must be provided at regular
intervals i.e. in a year or as per the requirement to keep the employees updated.

Training and development should also include more of upgrading their social behavior as
they connect to various clients belonging to various social backgrounds of society. As
they need to intermingle with different colleagues during transfers and delegations.

Controlling authority should be bound to allow employees to attend the training on

rotation basis, as it improves the quality of work & indirectly helps them in achieving
their goals.

More training programmes should be arranged for middle & top level employees as they
indirectly train their subordinates at actual work.

Trainees should be mentally prepared to attain training programme.

Importance of the training should be conveyed to trainees.

Training schedule should be followed properly to avoid mess.

Training programmes suggested by managers should be considered & discussed with the
subordinates before adding in final list of the programme.

CONCLUSION
33 | P a g e

Business conducting and survival in the present day turbulent environment are relying on
organizational knowledge in a sense of a giving timely and aproppriate answer to challenges. The
ability of individuals and organizations to obtain and master new knowledge has become the key
comparative advantage. The concept of knowledge management and management of human
resources, especially the function of employee training and development within the learning
organization, are engaged with the basic resource of modern business, i.e. with knowledge and
its utilization. Renewing knowledge is an imperative for the organization, and not an option. The
rate of learning has to be greater than the rate of changes. Training and development of
employees is a continuous procedure which is the only meaningful and logical approach in the
condition of knowledge obsolescence, dynamic changes and increasing need for constant product
and service innovations. Human resources represent intellectual capital which is the new source
of organizational resources, and the organization could increase them only through training,
development and motivation of employees. The prosperity of organizations becomes explicitly
dependent on the intellectual capacity of their employees and their ability to change and adjust to
the dynamic business environment.
