Learning is more effective when there is reinforcement in the form of rewards and punishments.

Training and learning
Training is an organized procedure by which people learn knowledge and acquire the skills they need for a definite purpose. . Training is rooted in the learning process; and learning is that human process by which skills, knowledge, habits and attitudes are acquired and utilized in such a way that behaviour is modified. Training causes learning, a process that takes place within the trainee.
