2Training HRPD VJIM
Definition
Training is the formal and systematic modification of behavior through learning which occurs as a result of education, instruction, development and planned experience.
Development is any learning activity, which is directed towards future, needs rather than present needs, and which is concerned more with career growth than immediate performance.
3Training HRPD VJIM
Training, Development, and Education
HRD programs are divided into three main categories: Training,
Development, and Education.
Training is the acquisition of technology, which permits employees to
perform their present job to standards.
---It improves human performance on the present job or of the hired. Also, it
is given when new technology in introduced into the workplace: automation
Development is training the people to acquire new horizons, technologies,
or viewpoints.
--It enables leaders to guide their organizations onto new expectations by
being proactive rather than reactive: cockroach model
--It enables workers to create better products, faster services, and more
competitive organizations. It is learning for growth of the individual, but not
related to a specific present or future job 4Training HRPD VJIM
Training, Development, and Education
Education is training people to do a different job. It is often given to people who have been identified as being promotable, being considered for a new job either lateral or upward, or to increase their potential.
Unlike training, which can be fully evaluated immediately upon the learners returning to work, education can only be completely evaluated when the learners move on to their future jobs or tasks.

8Training HRPD VJIM
When does the need for training arise?
• The installation of new equipment or techniques • A change in working methods or products produced • A realization that performance is inadequate • Labour shortage, necessitating the upgrading of some
employees • A desire to reduce the amount of scrap and to
improve quality • An increase in the number of accidents • Promotion or transfer of individual employees. • Ensures availability of necessary skills and there could
be a pool of talent from which to promote from.

16Training HRPD VJIM
Organizational Objectives & Strategies
The first step in the training process in an organization is the assessment of its objectives and strategies. What business are we in? At what level of quality do we wish to provide this product or service? Where do we want to be in the future? It is only after answering these related questions that the organization must assess the strengths and weaknesses of its human resources.
20Training HRPD VJIM
Training Need Analysis(TNA)
• It is an analysis to the design of effective training models.
• The purpose of training need analysis is to determine whether there is a gap between what is required for effective
performance and present level of performance.
21Training HRPD VJIM
Why TNA?Training need analysis is conducted to determine
whether resources required are available or not.
It helps to plan the budget of the company, areaswhere training is required, and also highlights theoccasions where training might not be
appropriate but requires alternate action.
22Training HRPD VJIM
Organizational level• TNA at this level focuses on strategic planning,
business need, and goals.
• It starts with the assessment of internal environment of the organization such as, procedures, structures, policies, strengths, and weaknesses and external environment such as opportunities and threats.
• HRD assess employees about the required Knowledge, Skills, and Attitudes (KSAs) based on the future KSAs requirements at each level
26Training HRPD VJIM
• After the SWOT analysis, weaknesses can be dealt with the training interventions,
• The identified strengths can further be strengthened with continued training.
• Threats can be reduced by identifying the areas where training is required.
• Opportunities can be exploited by balancing it against costs.
27Training HRPD VJIM
Individual Level–This level focuses on each and every individual
in the organization.
--Evaluate an employee: is performing at desired level or the performance is below expectation. If the difference between the expected performance and actual performance comes out to be negative, then certainly there is a need of training.
28Training HRPD VJIM
Individual analysis methods
• Appraisal and performance review
• Peer appraisal
• Competency assessments
• Subordinate appraisal
• Client feedback
• Customer feedback
• Self-assessment or self-appraisal
29Training HRPD VJIM
Operational Level
Here the focus is on the work that is being assigned to the employees.
The job analyst collect the data on whether the job is clearly understood by an employee or not.
It is done through technical interview, observation, psychological test; questionnaires asking the closed ended as well as open ended questions,etc.
Present job and future expectations in job are analyzed

Simulation model
• Represents a real-life situation.
• Trainees’ decisions result in outcomes that mirror what would happen if on the job.
• Used to teach:– Production and process skills- PLC, SCADA
(supervisory control and data acquisition)
– Management and interpersonal skills
– Reduces cost in making real models
36Training HRPD VJIM
Case study
• Description about how employees or an organization dealt with a difficult situation.
• Trainees are required to:–Analyze and critique actions taken
– Indicate the appropriate actions
–Suggest what might have been done differently
37Training HRPD VJIM
Role Play
• Trainees act out characters assigned to them.
• Information regarding the situation is provided to the trainees.
• Focus on interpersonal responses.
• Outcomes depend on the emotional (and subjective) reactions of the other trainees.
• The more meaningful the exercise, the higher the level of participant focus and intensity.
38Training HRPD VJIM
Behavior Modeling
• Involves presenting trainees with a model who demonstrates key behaviors to replicate.
• Provides trainees opportunity to practice the key behaviors.
• Based on the principles of social learning theory.
• More appropriate for learning skills and behaviors than factual information.
• Effective for teaching interpersonal and computer skills.
39Training HRPD VJIM
Group Building Methods
• Involve trainees:

• Companies are investing millions of dollars in training programs to help to gain a competitive advantage.
• Training investment is increasing because learning creates knowledge which differentiates between those companies and employees who are successful and those who are not.
• Company expects the outcomes or benefits related to training to be measurable
Evaluation of Training effectiveness
42Training HRPD VJIM
Evaluation of Training effectiveness
• Training effectiveness refers to the benefits that the company and the trainees receive from training.
• Evaluation design refers to from whom, what, when, and how information needed for determining the effectiveness of the training program will be collected

6 - 55Training HRPD VJIM
Evaluation of Course Effectiveness
• So how well is a specific course working?
• You can look at it from two dimensions, both important in the context of social auditing and adult learners:
Perceived Learning
This is what the students
think they’ve learned, and
how the course has met their
expectations
Demonstrated Learning
This is what the students can
show they’ve learned,
through test results or
performance in the field, etc.
56Training HRPD VJIM
Perceived Learning• Here are some ways to measure what students
think they’ve learned and how the course met their expectations:
– Post-course questionnaire/survey
• In-class
• Online
– Phone interviews with sample of students
– Student testimonials
– Debriefing sessions with trainer after the exam
– Student evaluations of trainer
– Peer grading – students assess each others’ performance 57Training HRPD VJIM
Demonstrated Learning
• Here are some ways to measure what the student actually learned:
– Compare pre- and post- course questionnaire and quizzes (should be the same questions on each, for comparison)
– External evaluation methods
– Take-home exams or projects (to give time to synthesize material)
– Follow-up surveys to test knowledge retention and change over time
– Witness or shadow audits to measure performance of auditor in the field and the long-term impact of the training on operational knowledge, skills and behavior
58Training HRPD VJIM
Effectiveness of Overall Program
• So how well is your overall training program working?
• You need to pick some key performance indicators to measure.
• Here are some to consider as baseline measurements:
– Average Student Performance in course
– Trainer and course ratings by students and observers
– Number of returning students
– If possible, field performance measurement or achievement of available or relevant certification
