    INTRODUCTION TO TRAINING

    AND DEVELOPMENT

    Training can be introduced simply as a process of assisting a person for

    enhancing his efficiency and effectiveness to a particular work area by

    getting more knowledge and practices. Also training is important to

    establish specific skills, abilities and knowledge to an employee. For an

    organization, training and development are important as well as

    organizational growth, because the organizational growth and profit are

    also dependent on the training. But the training is not a core of

    organizational development. It is a function of the organizational

    development.

    Training is different form education; particularly formal education. The

    education is concerned mainly with enhancement of knowledge, but the

    aims of training are increasing knowledge while changing attitudes and

    competences in good manner. Basically the education is formulated

    within the framework and to syllabus, but the training is not formed in to

    the frame and as well as syllabus. It may differ from one employee to

    another, one group to another, even the group in the same class. The

    reason for that can be mentioned as difference of attitudes and skills from

    one person to another. Even the situation is that, after good training

    programme, all different type skilled one group of employees can get in

    to similar capacity, similar skilled group. That is an advantage of the

    trainings.

    In the field of Human Resources Management, Training and

    Development is the field concern with organizational activities which are

    aimed to bettering individual and group performances in organizational

    settings. It has been known by many names in the field HRM, such as

    employee development, human resources development, learning and

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    2/77

    development etc. Training is

    really developing employees

    capacities through learning and

    practicing.

    Training and Development is the

    framework for helping

    employees to develop their

    personal and organizational

    skills, knowledge, and abilities.

    The focus of all aspects of Human Resource Development is on

    developing the most superior workforce so that the organization and

    individual employees can accomplish their work goals in service to

    customers.

    All employees want to be valuable and remain competitive in the labour

    market at all times, because they make some demand for employees in

    the labour market. This can only be achieved through employee training

    and development. Hence employees have a chance to negotiate as well as

    employer has a good opportunity to select most suitable person for his

    vacancy. Employees will always want to develop career-enhancing skills,

    which will always lead to employee motivation. There is no doubt that a

    well trained and developed staff will be a valuable asset to the company

    and thereby increasing the chances of his efficiency in discharging his

    duties.

    Trainings in an organization can be mainly of two types; Internal and

    External training sessions. Internal training involves when training is

    organized in-house by the human resources department or training

    department using either a senior staff or any talented staff in the

    particular department as a resource person.

    On the other hand external training is normally arranged outside the firm

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    3/77

    3

    and is mostly organized by training institutes or consultants. Whichever

    training, it is very important for all staff and helps in building career

    positioning and preparing staff for greater challenges in developing

    world. However the training is costly. Because of that, people who work

    at firms do not receive external trainings most of times. Training

    programmes in Sri Lanka. But nowadays, a new concept has come with

    these trainings which are Trainers through trainees. While training

    their employees in large quantities, many countries use that method in

    present days to reduce their training costs. The theory of this is, sending a

    little group or an individual for a training programme under a bonding

    agreement or without a bond. When they come back to work, the

    externally trained employees train the employees who have not

    participated for above training programme by internal training

    programmes.

    Employers of labour should enable employees to pursue training and

    development in a direction that they choose and are interested in, not just

    in company-assigned directions. Companies should support learning, in

    general, and not just in support of knowledge needed for the employee's

    current or next anticipated job. It should be noted that the key factor is

    keeping the employee interested, attending, engaged, motivated and

    retained.

    For every employee to perform well, especially Supervisors and Managers,

    there is a need for constant training and development. The right employee

    training, development and education provides big payoffs for the employer

    in increased productivity, knowledge, loyalty, and contribution to general

    growth of the firm. In most cases external trainings for instance provide

    participants with the avenue to meet new set of people in the same field

    and network. The meeting will give them the chance to compare issues and

    find out what is obtainable in each other's environment.

    It is not mentioned in any where that the employers, managers and

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    4/77

    4

    supervisors are not suitable for training programmes. They also must be

    highly trained if they are expected to do their best for the organization.

    Through that they will have best abilities and competencies to manage the

    organization. Training employees not only creates a more positive

    corporate culture, but also add a value to its key resources.

    Raw human resources can make only limited contribution to the

    organization to achieve its goals and objectives. Hence the demands for the

    developed employees are continuously increasing. Thus the training is a

    kind of investment.

    It is a learning process that involves the acquisition of knowledge,

    sharpening of skills, concepts, rules, or changing of attitudes and

    behaviours to enhance the performance of employees.

    Training is activity leading to skilled behaviour

    Its not what you want in life, but it knows how to reach it. Its not where you want to go, but it knows how to get there. Its not how high you want to rise, but its knowing how to take off

    May not be quite the outcome you were aiming for, but it willbe an outcome.

    Its not what you dream of doing, but its having the knowledgeto do it.

    It's not a set of goals,but its more like a

    vision.

    Its not the goal youset, but its what you

    need to achieve it.

    Training and Development in IT/Software

    Development Industry

    The Indian IT sector is growing at a very fast pace and is expected to earn a

    revenue of US $87 billion by 2008. In 2006, it has earned revenue of about US

    $ 40 billion with a

    growth rate of 30%.

    IT sector isexpected to

    generate 2.3

    million jobs by

    2010, according to

    NASSCOM

    (National

    Association ofSoftware and

    Service

    Companies)

    With this rapid expansion of IT sector and coming up of major players and

    new technologies like SAP, the need of human resource development has

    increased.

    According to the recent review by Harvard Business Review, there is a direct

    link between training investment of the companies and the market

    capitalization. Those companies with higher training investment had higher

    market capitalization. It clearly indicates that the companies which have

    successfully implemented training programs have been able to deliver

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    6/77

    6

    customer goals with effective results. It shows that good training results in

    enhancement of individual performance, which in turn, helps the organization

    in achieving its business goals. Training is a tool that can help in gaining

    competitive advantage in terms of human resource.

    With the growing investment by IT companies in the development of their

    employees many companies have now started their own learning centres. As

    an example, Sun has its own training department. Accenture has Internet based

    tool by the name of My Learning that offers access to its vast learning

    resources to its employees. Companies are investing in both the technical

    training, which has always been an essential part in IT industry, as well as in

    managerial skills development. Companies now kept aside 3-5% of revenue

    for training programs. As an example, some of the major players like Tata

    Alexi and Accenture are allocating 7% and 3% respectively of the companys

    overall revenue.

    The specific areas where training is given in IT/Software Development

    sector are:

    Computer Manufacturing

    EDP/ E- Commerce

    Designing

    Maintenance Service

    Operating jobs, Computer operators, Data Entry

    System Developing /Programming /Software Engineering

    Networking

    Application programming

    Concern in Information Technology Training

    As an example, New Horizons is establishing partnership with its customers

    and delivering quality training. The company regularly conducts surveys of

    training needs in Indian job market. On the other side, NIIT has invested in

    product development to create product segmentation and is customizing them

    to address IT/ITES education arena.

    Patch is venturing into colleges, research firms, and universities. Another

    opportunity that has been identified by Patch is the field of developing content

    and the company is offering these services to third-party clients for

    customization.

    Research and development in peripheral integration

    Product quality control and reliability testing

    Enterprise resource planning

    Database warehouse management

    One of the major concerns for training companies is to create professionals

    who are better able to go in for a technology in a specific domain area. Other

    than that, there are various issues that are affecting the IT training sector such

    as, lack of conviction regarding training, unplanned training approach,

    uncertain quality focus, and lengthy decision-making process.

    With the coming up of various new technologies, it has become a challengefor the training institutes to offer effective, updated, latest, planned training to

    candidates in a shortest-possible time. To increase the market share, most of

    the training institutes are now strategizing to launch new product and are

    marketing aggressively.

    Essentials in IT Industry

    to survive in long term there are some definite essential things such as,

    Good infrastructure

    Trained trainers

    Quality of content

    Certification of training course

    Effective Training evaluation

    Post training support, etc

    This must be met by the Indian players.

    With the rapid expansion in IT/ITES sector, now there is enough scope of IT

    training courses and institutes. IT sector is soon going to face a huge shortfall

    of skilled employees, if the growth in the software industry goes by as

    expected. According to recent report of NASSCOM (The National Association

    of Software and Services Companies) on software industry,

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    9/77

    Emerging Scenario in IT Industry

    According to a recent IDC report, India alone spends $216 million, i.e. 21% of

    the total spending of IT training in the region, and is expected to be one of the

    largest contributors in the coming years. This is largely because India alone

    accounts for 60 % of the total Asia-Pacific demand for IT professionals.

    Currently, the IT training market is valued at Rs 100 core, and is expected to

    reach Rs 500 corer over the next 3 years.

    The major factor that is responsible for growth in IT sector is the e-governance

    initiatives introduced by central government and various other state

    governments.

    Now there is a notable shift from long-term course to short-term training

    certifications. Due to this, the focus is now on hiring professionals with

    expertise in particular domains. The demand has largely for JAVA and .NET

    professionals. And on the NETWORKING end, network storage and Linux

    demand is taking a toll.

    the IT services sector will see a shortfall of 2,35,000 people by 2008. IT

    spending in the global business world is expected to grow by 6 to 7 % in the

    next 3 years, which will be enough to give boost to the IT training sector.

    This huge IT spending is largely because of uptake in IT recruitment.

    objectives actually lead the design of training. It provides the clear guidelines

    and develops the trainingprogram in less time because objectives focus

    specifically on needs. It helps in adhering to a plan.

    of the training program. Training objectives are of great significance from a

    number of stakeholder perspectives,

    2. Trainee

    3. Designer

    4. Evaluator

    Trainee The training objective is beneficial to the trainee because it

    helps in reducing the anxiety of the trainee up to some extent. Not knowing

    anything or going to a place which is unknown creates anxiety that can

    negatively affect learning. Therefore, it is important to keep the

    participants aware of the happenings, rather than keeping it surprise.

    Secondly, it helps in increase in concentration, which is the crucial factor

    to make the training successful. The objectives create an image of the

    training programin trainees mind that actually helps in gaining attention.

    Thirdly, if the goal is set to be challenging and motivating, then the

    likelihood of achieving those goals is much higher than the situation in

    which no goal is set. Therefore, training objectives helps in increasing the

    probability that the participants will be successful in training.

    Designer The training objective is beneficial to the training designer

    because if the designer is aware what is to be achieved in the end then hell

    buy the training package according to that only. The training designer

    would then look for the training methods, training equipments, and training

    content accordingly to achieve those objectives. Furthermore, planning

    always helps in dealing effectively in an unexpected situation. Consider an

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    35

    Trainer The training objective is also beneficial to trainer because it helps

    the trainer to measure the progress of trainees and make the required

    adjustment. Also, trainer comes in a position to establish a relationship

    between objectives and particular segments of training.

    .Therefore, without any guidance, the training may not be designed

    appropriately.

    EvaluatorIt becomes easy for the training evaluatorto measure the progress

    of the trainees because the objectives define the expected performance of

    trainees. Training objective is an important to tool to judge the performance of

    participants.

    The principal objective of training and development division is to make sure

    the availability of a skilled and willing workforce to an organization. In

    addition to that, there are four other objectives: Individual, Organizational,

    Functional, and Societal.

    Individual Objectiveshelp employees in achieving their personal goals,

    which in turn, enhances the individual contribution to an organization.

    Organizational Objectivesassist the organization with its primary

    objective by bringing individual effectiveness.

    Functional Objectivesmaintain the departments contribution at a level

    suitable to the organizations needs.

    Societal Objectivesensure that an organization is ethically and socially

    responsible to the needs and challenges of the society.

    example; the objective of one training program is to deal effectively with

    customers to increase the sales. Since the objective is known, the designer

    will design a training program that will include ways to improve the

    interpersonal skills, such as verbal and non verbal language, dealing in

    unexpected situation i.e. when there is a defect in a product or when a

    customer is angry.

    Building a more efficient, effective and highly motivated team, whichenhances the company's competitive position and improves employee

    morale.

    Ensuring adequate human resources for expansion into new programs.

    Research has shown specific benefits that a small business receives from

    training and developing its workers, including:

    Increased productivity. Reduced employee turnover. Increased efficiency resulting in financial gains. Decreased need for supervision.

    Employees frequently develop a greater sense of self-worth, dignity and well-

    being as they become more valuable to the firm and to society. Generally they

    will receive a greater share of the material gains that result from their

    increased productivity. These factors give them a sense of satisfaction through

    the achievement of personal and company goals.

    The Training Process

    The model below traces the steps necessary in the training process:

    Needs Assessment Is There a Gap? Training Objectives Select the Trainees Select the Training Methods and Mode Choose a Means of Evaluating Administer Training Evaluate the Training

    Your business should have a clearly defined strategy and set of objectives that

    direct and drive all the decisions made especially for training decisions. Firms

    that plan their training process are more successful than those that do not.

    Most business owners want to succeed, but do not engage in training design

    that promise to improve their chances of success. Why? The five reasons most

    often identified are:

    Time- Small businesses managers find that time demands do not allow them

    to train employees.

    Getting started- Most small business managers have not practiced training

    employees. The training process is unfamiliar.

    Broad expertise - Managers tend to have broad expertise rather than the

    specialized skills needed for training and development activities.

    Lack of trust and openness- Many managers prefer to keep information

    to themselves. By doing so they keep information from subordinates and

    others who could be useful in the training and development process.

    Scepticisms as to the value of the training - Some small business

    owners believe the future cannot be predicted or controlled and their efforts,

    therefore, are best centred on current activities i.e., making money today.

    A well-conceived training program can help your firm succeed. A program

    structured with the company's strategy and objectives in mind has a high

    probability of improving productivity and other goals that are set in the

    training mission.

    For any business, formulating a training strategy requires addressing a series

    of questions.

    Who are your customers? Why do they buy from you? Who are your competitors? How do they serve the market? What

    competitive advantages do they enjoy? What parts of the market have

    they ignored? What strengths does the company have? What weaknesses? What social trends are emerging that will affect the firm?

    The purpose of formulating a training strategy is to answer two relatively

    simple but vitally important questions:

    (1) What is our business? And

    (2) What should our business be? Armed with the answers to these questions

    and a clear vision of its mission, strategy and objectives, a company can

    identify its training needs.

    Identifying Training Needs

    Training needs can be assessed by analyzing three major human resource

    areas: the organization as a whole, the job characteristics and the needs of theindividuals. This analysis will provide answers to the following questions:

    Where is training needed? What specifically must an employee learn in order to be more

    productive?

    Who needs to be trained?

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    46/77

    46

    Begin by assessing the current status of the company how it does what it does

    best and the abilities of your employees to do these tasks. This analysis will

    provide some benchmarks against which the effectiveness of a training

    program can be evaluated. Your firm should know where it wants to be in five

    years from its long-range strategic plan. What you need is a training program

    to take your firm from here to there.

    Second, consider whether the organization is financially committed to

    supporting the training efforts. If not, any attempt to develop a solid training

    program will fail.

    Next, determine exactly where training is needed. It is foolish to implement acompanywide training effort without concentrating resources where they are

    needed most. An internal audit will help point out areas that may benefit from

    training. Also, a skills inventory can help determine the skills possessed by the

    employees in general. This inventory will help the organization determine

    what skills are available now and what skills are needed for future

    development.

    Also, in today's market-driven economy, you would be remiss not to ask your

    customers what they like about your business and what areas they think should

    be improved. In summary, the analysis should focus on the total organization

    and should tell you

    (1) Where training is needed and

    (2) Where it will work within the organization.

    Once you have determined where training is needed, concentrate on the

    content of the program. Analyze the characteristics of the job based on its

    description, the written narrative of what the employee actually does. Training

    based on job descriptions should go into detail about how the job is performed

    on a task-by-task basis. Actually doing the job will enable you to get a better

    feel for what is done.

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    47/77

    47

    Individual employees can be evaluated by comparing their current skill levels

    or performance to the organization's performance standards or anticipated

    needs. Any discrepancies between actual and anticipated skill levels identify a

    training need.

    Selection of Trainees

    Once you have decided what training is necessary and where it is needed, the

    next decision is who should be trained? For a small business, this question is

    crucial. Training an employee is expensive, especially when he or she leaves

    your firm for a better job. Therefore, it is important to carefully select who

    will be trained.

    Training programs should be designed to consider the ability of the employee

    to learn the material and to use it effectively, and to make the most efficient

    use of resources possible. It is also important that employees be motivated by

    the training experience. Employee failure in the program is not only damaging

    to the employee but a waste of money as well. Selecting the right trainees is

    important to the success of the program.

    Training Goals

    The goals of the training program should relate directly to the needs

    determined by the assessment process outlined above. Course objectives

    should clearly state what behaviour or skill will be changed as a result of the

    training and should relate to the mission and strategic plan of the company.

    Goals should include milestones to help take the employee from where he or

    she is today to where the firm wants him or her in the future. Setting goals

    helps to evaluate the training program and also to motivate employees.

    Allowing employees to participate in setting goals increases the probability of

    success.

    Training Methods

    There are two broad types of training available to small businesses: on-the-job

    and off-the-job techniques. Individual circumstances and the "who," "what"and "why" of your training program determine which method to use.

    On-the-job training is delivered to employees while they perform their

    regular jobs. In this way, they do not lose time while they are learning. After a

    plan is developed for what should be taught, employees should be informed of

    the details. A timetable should be established with periodic evaluations to

    inform employees about their progress. On-the-job techniques include

    orientations, job instruction training, apprenticeships, internships andassistantships, job rotation and coaching.

    Off-the-job techniques include lectures, special study, films, television

    conferences or discussions, case studies, role playing, simulation, programmed

    instruction and laboratory training. Most of these techniques can be used by

    small businesses although, some may be too costly.

    Orientations are for new employees. The first several days on the job are

    crucial in the success of new employees. This point is illustrated by the fact

    that 60 percent of all employees who quit do so in the first ten days.

    Orientation training should emphasize the following topics:

    The company's history and mission. The key members in the organization.

    The key members in the department, and how the department helpsfulfil the mission of the company.

    Personnel rules and regulations.

    Some companies use verbal presentations while others have written

    presentations. Many small businesses convey these topics in one-on-one

    orientations. No matter what method is used, it is important that the newcomer

    understand his or her new place of employment.

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    49/77

    49

    Lecturespresent training material verbally and are used when the goal is to

    present a great deal of material to many people. It is more cost effective to

    lecture to a group than to train people individually. Lecturing is one-way

    communication and as such may not be the most effective way to train. Also,it is hard to ensure that the entire audience understands a topic on the same

    level; by targeting the average attendee you may undertrained some and lose

    others. Despite these drawbacks, lecturing is the most cost-effective way of

    reaching large audiences.

    Role playing and simulation are training techniques that attempt to

    bring realistic decision making situations to the trainee. Likely problems and

    alternative solutions are presented for discussion. The adage there is no better

    trainer than experience is exemplified with this type of training. Experienced

    employees can describe real world experiences, and can help in and learn from

    developing the solutions to these simulations. This method is cost effective

    and is used in marketing and management training.

    Audiovisual methods such as television, videotapes and films are the

    most effective means of providing real world conditions and situations in a

    short time. One advantage is that the presentation is the same no matter how

    many times it's played. This is not true with lectures, which can change as the

    speaker is changed or can be influenced by outside constraints. The major flaw

    with the audiovisual method is that it does not allow for questions and

    interactions with the speaker, nor does it allow for changes in the presentation

    for different audiences.

    Job rotationinvolves moving an employee through a series of jobs so he or

    she can get a good feel for the tasks that are associated with different jobs. It is

    usually used in training for supervisory positions. The employee learns a little

    about everything. This is a good strategy for small businesses because of the

    many jobs an employee may be asked to do.

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    50/77

    50

    Apprenticeships develop employees who can do many different tasks.

    They usually involve several related groups of skills that allow the apprentice

    to practice a particular trade, and they take place over a long period of time in

    which the apprentice works for, and with, the senior skilled worker.Apprenticeships are especially appropriate for jobs requiring production skills.

    Internships and assistantshipsare usually a combination of classroom

    and on-the-job training. They are often used to train prospective managers or

    marketing personnel.

    Programmed learning, computer-aided instruction and interactive video

    all have one thing in common: they allow the trainee to learn at his or her own

    pace. Also, they allow material already learned to be bypassed in favour of

    material with which a trainee is having difficulty. After the introductory

    period, the instructor need not be present, and the trainee can learn as his or

    her time allows. These methods sound good, but may be beyond the resources

    of some small businesses.

    Laboratory trainingis conducted for groups by skilled trainers. It usuallyis conducted at a neutral site and is used by upper- and middle management

    trainees to develop a spirit of teamwork and an increased ability to deal with

    management and peers. It can be costly and usually is offered by larger small

    businesses.

    Trainers

    Who actually conducts the training depends on the type of training needed and

    who will be receiving it. On-the-job training is conducted mostly by

    supervisors; off-the-job training, by either in-house personnel or outside

    instructors.

    In-house training is the daily responsibility of supervisors and employees.

    Supervisors are ultimately responsible for the productivity and, therefore, the

    training of their subordinates. These supervisors should be taught the

    techniques of good training. They must be aware of the knowledge and skills

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    51/77

    51

    necessary to make a productive employee. Trainers should be taught to

    establish goals and objectives for their training and to determine how these

    objectives can be used to influence the productivity of their departments. They

    also must be aware of how adults learn and how best to communicate with

    adults. Small businesses need to develop their supervisors' training capabilities

    by sending them to courses on training methods. The investment will pay off

    in increased productivity.

    There are several ways to select training personnel for off-the-job training

    programs. Many small businesses use in-house personnel to develop formal

    training programs to be delivered to employees off line from their normal

    work activities, during company meetings or individually at prearranged

    training sessions.

    There are many outside training sources, including consultants, technical and

    vocational schools, continuing education programs, chambers of commerce

    and economic development groups. Selecting an outside source for training

    has advantages and disadvantages. The biggest advantage is that these

    organizations are well versed in training techniques, which is often not the

    case with in-house personnel.

    The disadvantage of using outside training specialists is their limited

    knowledge of the company's product or service and customer needs. These

    trainers have a more general knowledge of customer satisfaction and needs. In

    many cases, the outside trainer can develop this knowledge quickly by

    immersing himself or herself in the company prior to training the employees.

    Another disadvantage of using outside trainers is the relatively high cost

    compared to in-house training, although the higher cost may be offset by the

    increased effectiveness of the training. Whoever is selected to conduct the

    training, either outside or in-house trainers, it is important that the company's

    goals and values be carefully explained.

    Training Administration

    Having planned the training program properly; you must now administer the

    Training to the selected employees. It is important to follow through to make

    sure the goals are being met. Questions to consider before training begins

    include:

    Location. Facilities. Accessibility. Comfort. Equipment. Timing.

    Careful attention to these operational details will contribute to the success of

    the training program. An effective training program administrator should

    follow these steps:

    Define the organizational objectives. Determine the needs of the training program. Define training goals. Develop training methods. Decide whom to train. Decide who should do the training. Administer the training. Evaluate the training program.

    Following these steps will help an administrator develop an effectivetraining program to ensure that the firm keeps qualified employees who

    are productive, happy workers. This will contribute positively to the

    bottom line.

    Evaluation of Training

    Training should be evaluated several times during the process. Determine

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    53/77

    53

    these milestones when you develop the training. Employees should be

    evaluated by comparing their newly acquired skills with the skills defined by

    the goals of the training program. Any discrepancies should be noted and

    adjustments made to the training program to enable it to meet specified goals.

    Many training programs fall short of their expectations simply because the

    administrator failed to evaluate its progress until it was too late. Timely

    evaluation will prevent the training from straying from its goals.

    Training Cycle

    Stage 1 - Identification of training needs

    This initial stage of the training cycle addresses finding out if there is, or

    identifying, training need. If a need is identified, it is at this stage that who

    needs trained (target audience), in what and how you will know the training

    has had the intended impact success criteria of the training should be

    identified. This stage will help those who identify training needs to consider

    why the training is required and its expected outcome and impact.

  • 7/28/2019 Project on Training and Development

    54/77

    54

    How you will measure if the training has met the original need i.e. brought

    about intended change in behaviour, performance.

    Stage 2 - Design of training solutions

    This stage covers planning, design and development of magistrate training. It

    aims to ensure that a systematic and consistent approach is adopted for all

    training solutions. Training solutions cover face to face training and open andflexible learning including e-learning.

    Stage 3 - Delivery of training solutions

    This stage of the training cycle ensures that the delivery of the training is

    effective and provides opportunities for the learners to learn. This will involve

    choosing the most appropriate format for meeting training needs, and taking

    advantage of different training methods.

    Stage 4 - Application of training in the court environment

    This stage of the training cycle is concerned with ensuring that all learning

    outcomes are applied and reinforced in practice within the court environment.

    This stage will help those who monitor the development of individual learners

    and review their progress.

    Stage 5 - Evaluation of training solutions

    This stage of the training cycle deals with the collection, analysis and

    presentation of information to establish the improvement in performance that

    results from this.This stage will help those who evaluate learning programmes,

    or who respond to developments in learning, or plan and introduce

    improvements in learning interventions.

    Samples

    We always have to work with a sample of subject rather than the full

    population. But people are interested in population, not the sample. To

    generalise from the sample to the population, the sample has to be

    representative of the population. The safety way to ensure that the

    representative is to use a random selectionprocedure.

    Method of sampling used

    "Random selection process"

    In the random selection method, all items have some chance of selection that

    can be calculated. Random sampling technique ensures that bias is not

    introduced regarding who is not included in survey.

    Sampling size

    The sampling size is taken in 20 employees from the Human resource

    department in Samsung company private limited, Nagpur.

    Data collection

    Survey questionnaires: Behaviour, belief and observation of specific groups

    are identified, reported and interpreted.

    Hypothesis is usually considered as the principle instrument. Its main functionis to suggest new experiment and observation. In fact many experiments are

    carried out with the deliberate object of testing HYPOTHESIS. In general it is

    taken as a proposal to accept something as true. It may prove to be correct or

    incorrect. So after defining the objective and having good literature survey.

    I set the hypothesis for my research project as

    The training and development program adopted by Samsung Company helps

    to improve employee's performance and simultaneously fulfil organisation

    objectives.

    Training and development activities conducted by Samsung Company are

    effective and the employees are better performers after the training is
