Nothing is above its reach. It can turn bad morals to good; it can destroy bad principles and recreate good ones; it can lift men to angel-ship.” -Mark Twain Training is the most important activity, which plays an important role in the development of human resources. To put the right man at the right place with the trained personnel has become essential in today’s globalized market. No organisation has a choice on whether or not to develop employees. Nowadays training has become an important function of Human Resource Management. Human Resources are the lifeblood of any organization. Only through well-trained personnel, can an organization achieve its goals. Human Resource Management refers to the policies, practices and systems that influence employees’ behaviour, attitudes, and performance. Human resource practices play a key role in attracting, motivating, rewarding and retaining employees. Other human resource management practices include recruiting employees, selecting employees, designing work, compensating employees and developing good employer-employee relations. The importance placed on ‘Training’ is great on comparison to other human resource management practices. To be effective, training must play a strategic role in supporting the business. Increasingly, training and development is playing an important and strategic role in the economic success of business organizations. Business organizations recognize that they now operate in a new global economy. It is an economy that involves the use of advanced technologies and increased responsiveness to customers’ needs. Global economy requires greater and greater innovation and flexibility in production, service delivery and market know-how. Business organizations realize more than ever that employee knowledge gained through training and development has become a strategic necessity and more and more the sources of strategic advantage. It is interesting to see how the terms training and development differ. Oxford dictionary defines the two terms as follows: Train: to instruct and discipline in or for some particular art, profession, occupation or practice, to make proficient by such instruction and practice. Develop: to unfold more fully, bring out all that is potentially contained in. The basic difference between training and development is that 'Training' focuses on specific job knowledge and skill is to be applied in the short run. On the contrary, 'Development' focuses on broad knowledge and insights that may be required for adaptation to environmental demands in future. It is a process by means of which an individual attains overall improvement in ability and competence, makes progress towards maturity and actualization of personality. There needs to be a coherent and well-planned integration of training, and continuous development in the organization if meaningful growth at individual and organizational level is to be achieved and sustained. It is vital to make training and development serve the ends of the business as well as promoting the growth of individuals; and it is essential to think and act strategically instead of continually reacting in an ad hoc fashion to the most obviously pressing needs of the moment.Obviously, there is need for developing systematic approach to training and development. FEATURES OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT Training isn’t a one size fits all, so there isn’t one simple answer, but there are a few things that are consistently present in all the best training programs. Below you’ll find the top characteristics that we’ve seen in the most successful programs. 1. Effective program management - A high quality training program starts with a person with a champion. We all call this person the program manager. An ideal training program manager is inherently curious, open minded, motivated and invested in developing employees’ skills to help them reach their potential. Additionally, this person is usually tasked with marketing the training program internally, so that employees are aware of development skills include problem solving, business acumen leadership skills. 2. Needs assessmentA needs assessment can be conducted through research, interviews and internal surveys. At the core of any effective training program is correctly identifying who needs to be trained, and on what skills or topics. A training need is the gap between current performance and required performance. 3. Goals and metrics- Training is an area that can be difficult to quantify. However, when the program manager is able to determine organizational needs that are aligned with the business quantifying training becomes much easier. When developing goals, make sure metrics give the whole picture, including quantity, quality, time, cost and effectiveness. 4. Leadership buy-in - One of the keys to a successful training and development program, and possibly the most important, is leadership buy-in from the top down. Having leadership support helps to drive the importance of a program, assist with accountability and establish appropriate expectations. Senior leaders will want to know how the training program can impact the bottom line. So the junior leaders must be prepared when they present their ideas. 5. Relevancy - Providing relevant training content is key to a good training program, to ensure your learners are engaged and continue to come back for more. The content that are presented to the employees must be applicable and timely to help them with their daily duties, expand their mind, and provide them with quick take -ways that can immediately be applied. 6. Creativity - Creativity can start with a program launch that has a theme – it can be as simple as a corporate university or college layout. Branding the training initiative with a logo or mascot can add a level of fun and familiarity as the program continues. Other creative ploys could include seasonal themes and contests. 7. Marketing and communication - Having a marketing is an integral part of the implementation and an essential component of a successful learning and development program. A successful marketing plan includes not only initial launch activities, but also strong ongoing efforts throughout the program. Any communication sent out to employees should include not only an overview and clearly defined expectations, but also how an employee what’s in for them. 8. Training reinforcement - Training reinforcement is a series of small lessons or learning activities that support a core concept skill. By continuing to teach what was learned at a seminar or from a video, employees will not only remember more, but they will also be more likely to apply it to their everyday work. Types of training and development Methods of training There are mainly two types of training. • On-the-job training • Off-the-job training • On-the-job training- when employees are trained while they are performing the job then it is known as On-the-job training. Under this method the employees learn by doing. This method is suitable only for technical jobs and the advantage of this method is employees can learn the practical problems while working on the job. The biggest disadvantage of On-the-job training is that it results in the wastage of resources. Whenever employees are dealing with expensive and sophisticated machinery then On-thejob methods of training should be avoided. • Off-the-job training- Off-the-job training means training the employees by taking them away from their work position which means employees are given a break from the job and sent for training. This method for training is more suitable for managerial job positions as conferences, seminars, are held to train the managers. On- the -job training Off- the- job training 1) Apprenticeship /programme training 1) Conference or classroom lectures 2) Job rotation 2) Vestibule training 3) Internship 3) Films 4) Coaching 4) Case study 5) Induction or orientation training 5) Computer modelling and programmed instruction NEED AND BENEFITS OF TRAINING AT THE INDIVIDUAL, OPERATIONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL LEVELS. LEVELS Training has become a necessity for all the organization in today’s dynamic business environment. It helps the employees to perform their jobs more efficiently and effectively resulting in long-term benefits for both the employees as well as the organizations. Training can be multi-dimensional. It can be specifically used to develop skills and knowledge that may be used at an Individual, Operational, Organizational level. Need for individual training:Individual skills include self management, communication and interpersonal abilities needed to successfully perform in the organizational and social context of the project and support groups. Individual training offers the following benefits:I. Quality of work is improved. II. It increases the productivity. III. Provides employees greater flexibility and responsiveness to change. IV. There is less wastage and reduction in maintenance and repair costs. V. There is improvement in employee morale. Thus we see that the individual or employee training provides employees an opportunity to improve their job skills, knowledge and abilities thereby strengthening the services and operations of the entire organization. Need for operational training:Operational training includes training that helps an employee to develop, maintain, or improve his technical skills. Technical skills are those skills where he uses his knowledge, tools and other equipment to perform a task efficiently. Training in technical or operational skills helps an employee to I. Use the equipment in a correct and scientific manner. II. Choose the correct tools required to complete a specific task. III. Learn to use new technology and tools. IV. To prevent industrial accidents and health hazards. V. It facilitates team work. Operational training thus increases efficiency and productivity of an employee by enhancing his ability to use skills and resources available as required by his job. Need for organizational training: Organizational training includes training to support the organization’s strategic business objectives and to meet practical training needs that are common across projects and support groups. The purpose of organizational training is to develop the skills and knowledge of people so they can perform their roles effectively and efficiently. I. Pertain to behaviour within and according to employee’s organization structure II. Take on role and responsibilities as required by the organization III. Adhere to the organization’s general operating principles and methods. IV. Facilitate implementation of organizational STRATEGIC planned change efforts such as OD,TQM, BPR,ISO. An organizational training programme should identify the training needed by the organization, obtain and provide training to address those needs, establish and maintain training capability and records and assess its effectiveness. This will result in overall development and ultimately an increase in the profitability of the business. NEED FOR INDUSTRIAL TRAINING Nothing is changing faster than a factory. Fierce global competition, new regulatory requirements and technical innovations are combining to redefine manufacturing effectiveness and create a new way of life on the factory floor. TQM, JIT, World Class Manufacturing, ISO 9000, Process Safety Management, Total Productive Maintenance, the computer-integrated enterprise, agile manufacturing-new innovations and initiatives continually challenge industrial management like never before. It is not likely to stop. If change has challenged management, think of how it challenges workers. The heyday of mass production is long gone as organization gear up to meet global competition and customer demand for quality. Increasingly workers are managing themselves in sophisticated self directed teams. Now supervisors are expected to be coaches instead of bosses. In today’s high performance plants, manual labour is becoming less important. Workers use computers to control and monitor processes. Instead of doing, workers process information and make decisions. Instead of doing the same thing over and over, workers are becoming multi-skilled so they can accomplish whatever their job or team requires. The role of the knowledge worker is expanding on the plant floor just as in the rest of the society. To meet these challenges and match international rivals, organizations need educated skill and sophisticated workers. It is not easy to get them. Workers are coming out of school unequipped to learn in traditional ways- unable to successfully function in the modern world. Many businesses have difficulty in finding and developing qualified workers. What can be done about it? For more industrial enterprises, the answer is training .It is the bridge between the technology of the plant and the workers who use that technology. Training is a key factor in determining manufacturing effectiveness. No matter how sophisticated your processes and systems, they are only good as your workers. In the last few years, industrial training based on established principles of adult learning has proven to be valuable tool in raising productivity and increasing competitiveness. Effective training transforms workers into learners and problem-solvers even when all other educational approaches have failed.

Findings and conclusion EVALUATION OF THE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT METHODS ADOPTED BY TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES AND COGNIZANT USING KIRKPATRICK’S MODEL LEVEL 1 REACTION – Just as the word implies, evaluation at this level measures how participants in a training program react to it.
