Why Training?
Change is the principle of nature and everything evolves by this
principle. In an organization, whenever something new is introduced or earlier system
of working is changed, some new changes are made in policies and procedures, or
something is redesigned for any function; it becomes mandatory to give training
to enhance the knowledge, sharpen the skills, and improve the attitude of an
employee for accepting the change. Basically, training is required whenever
there is a change in either policy or people or technology in an organization.
If any employee joined the organization, then there is change in people, that
is why training is required.
What is Training?
The training is a systematic process for enhancing the knowledge,
sharpening the skills, and modifying the attitude of a person through a range
of activities involving learning in a particular order usually known as
training design.
The training is provided keeping in mind a particular performance
related problem. The training events or activities are decided on the basis of
problem in context. The training comprises five steps i.e. INDIA:
I – Identify N- Need D – Design I – Implement A – Assess
Firstly, the organizational functions are studied, how the organization
work and what functions are required at each level of organization. The persons
required to be trained are of which level of the organization and what
functions they usually perform. In which activities they lack knowledge,
skills, and attitude. The jobs and tasks are analysed and it is decided which
areas are to be focused in the training.
On the basis of identified needs, the training course is planned and
designed touching all the functions of the targeted group of employees. The training
comprises the learning through various types of exercises, lectures, games,
and other means of training.
After training, it is required to provide work to the participants in
the organization and supervise their functions. On the basis of their earlier
and updated performance, it is assessed whether the change is happened in the
efficiency and effectiveness of the persons.
How to train?
The training can be provided either by lectures, or by discussions, or
by exercises or by providing practical tasks to perform in the classroom. The trainers
ask the trainees to do some exercise and then it is checked with explanation to
the errors. The trainees sometimes be asked to copy the method of trainer and
then learn the process of their functions. The trainees sometimes ask to
explore the possible solutions to a practical problem at their work-space, in
result they be able to sort out their problems at the work-space.
In case, the trainer realizes that the trainees are not feeling
comfortable to learn through directions, exercises, and other tasks of training;
then the problem is of attitude, then it is required to increase the
willingness of the trainees to learn the training activities with full
interest. Story telling method is used to boost the morale of the trainees to
show interest in learning during the training.
