“A STUDY ON TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT AT UEI GLOBAL”

 

CHAPTER -1

INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY

Training and development encompasses three main activities: training, education, and development.

  • Training: This activity is both focused upon, and evaluated against, the job that an individual currently holds.
  • Education: This activity focuses upon the jobs that an individual may potentially hold in the future, and is evaluated against those jobs.
  • Development: This activity focuses upon the activities that the organization employing the individual, or that the individual is part of, may partake in the future, and is almost impossible to evaluate.

 

TRAINING OBJECTIVES:

The principal objective of training division is to make sure the availability of a skilled and willing workforce to an organization. In addition, there are four other objectives:

Individual Objectives – Help employees in achieving their personal goals, which in turn helps in enhancing the individual contribution towards his or her organization.
Organizational Objectives – Assist the organization with its primary objective of bringing individual effectiveness.

Functional Objectives – Maintain the department’s contribution at a level suitable to the organization’s needs.

Societal Objectives – Ensure that an organization is ethically and socially responsible to the needs and challenges of the society.

 

IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING:

  1. Optimum Utilization of Human Resources –
  2. Development of Human Resources –
  3. Productivity –
  4. Team spirit –
  5. Organization Culture –
  6. Organization Climate –
  7. Quality –
  8. Healthy work environment –
  9. Health and Safety – 
  10. Morale –
  11. Image –
  • To pinpoint if training will make a difference in productivity and the bottom line.
  • To decide what specific training each employee needs and what will improve his or her job performance.
  • To differentiate between the need for training and organizational issues and bring about a match between individual aspirations and organizational goals.

 

Methods of training

On the job– Methods that are applied in workplace, while the employee is actually working. Eg. Coaching, job rotation, understudy etc.

Off the job– Method used away from workplace. Eg. Case study, simulation exercise, management games, role playing etc.

TRAINING NEEDS ANALYSIS:

An analysis of training need is an essential requirement to the design of effective training. 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.

Why training need analysis?

Training need analysis is conducted to determine whether resources required are available or not. It helps to plan the budget of the company, areas where training is required, and also highlights the occasions where training might not be appropriate but requires alternate action.

Training Need arises at three levels:

An analysis of training need is an essential requirement to the design of effective training. 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. Training needs analysis process is a series of activities conducted to identify problems or other issues in the workplace, and to determine whether training is an appropriate response.

The needs analysis is usually the first step taken to cause a change. This is mainly because a needs analysis specifically defines the gap between the current and the desired individual and organizational performances.

A training need exists when there is a gap between what is required of a person to perform their job proficiently and what they actually know.

Organizational Level – Training need analysis at organizational 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.

After doing the SWOT analysis, weaknesses can be dealt with the training interventions, while strengths can further be strengthened with continued training. Threats can be reduced by identifying the areas where training is required. And, opportunities can be exploited by balancing it against costs.

For this approach to be successful, the HR department of the company requires to be involved in strategic planning. In this planning, HR develops strategies to be sure that the employees in the organization have the required Knowledge, Skills, and Attributes (KSAs) based on the future KSAs requirements at each level.

Individual Level – Training need analysis at individual level focuses on each and every individual in the organization. At this level, the organization checks whether 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 positive, then certainly there is a need of training.

However, individual competence can also be linked to individual need. The methods that are used to analyze the individual need are:

  • Appraisal and performance review
  • Peer appraisal
  • Competency assessments
  • Subordinate appraisal
  • Client feedback
  • Customer feedback
  • Self-assessment or self-appraisal

Operational Level – Training Need analysis at operational level focuses on the work that is being assigned to the employees. The job analyst gathers the information on whether the job is clearly understood by an employee or not. He gathers this information through technical interview, observation, psychological test; questionnaires asking the closed ended as well as open ended questions, etc. Today, jobs are dynamic and keep changing over the time. Employees need to prepare for these changes. The job analyst also gathers information on the tasks needs to be done plus the tasks that will be required in the future.
Based on the information collected, training Need analysis (TNA) is done.

Training Needs Analysis Process

Step One – Identify Problem Needs

Step Two – Determine Design of Needs Analysis

Step Three – Collect Data

Step Four – Analyze Data

Step Five – Provide Feedback

Step Six – Develop Action Plan

 

Need for Assessment of Training

Corporate, today, expend large amount of money on imparting training and development practices. But prior to spending such vast amount, they should analyze the need for conducting training to the workforce. There are chances in which firms can make mistakes if they are not assessing the training needs. An employee, for sure, requires training when he is found to be not capable enough to meet the goals of the organization and when there is a gap between the current performance and expected performance. Meagerness in recital occurs due to the lack of sufficient knowledge and expertise, monotonous management or any other personal and official issues. All these problems spotted can be tackled by providing an effective training programme to the right employee and at the right point of time. 

 

 

Effective Training Programme- Underlying Principles  

Any training programme in order to be effective must have some precise goals and objectives:

  • To enlighten the partakers more about their organization, its aspirations, challenges and the business background in which it operates.
  • To make the human resources cognizant of the functions of different sections.
  • To train them to be aware of the significance of communication and enthusiasm in their day to day work as a tool for better organizational climate and morale.
  • To see that once they go back after attending training, they feel that they belong to the organization.
  • To ensure that the participants would share their information gained from training with their co-workers.
  • To develop friendship, fellowship, support and trusteeship among trainees.
  • To ensure that technical, managerial, supervisory and human competencies are built up in the employees on a continuous basis to enable them to perform their current assignments effectively and also to set up them to execute their future tasks.
  • To put forward the attitude based training to ensure that a value based and self sustained culture is built in the organization.
  • To offer the required training inputs to all employees in a need based, organized and lucrative manner.

 

The training programmes imparted to the workforce should be of superior standards with a view to develop good working environment, provide work culture inspiration, support attitudinal change, improve interpersonal relationships, reduce accidents, perk up efficiency, update knowledge and technology, educate saving and investment habits among employees, create consciousness of work-related health hazards etc. Also, the training institute should comprise of all type of audio visual aids, which forms the venue for the in-house training and development programmes in the organization.

Training can and will produce positive results if it is based on clearly defined needs specific to the workplace and it is delivered with a view to those needs and the ways in which adults learn.

The company approached for training to their employees on some of the issues felt by the Management as essential for the cognitive development of the workers. The Education Officers of the Board visited the company a number of times and discussed training related issues with cross-section of employees like Managers, Supervisors etc. before deciding the Subjects, course contents and other modalities. It was noticed during Education officers’ visit that the problems encountered by the company were broadly related to behavioral, attitudinal and motivational, culmination to operational issues. The overall syllabus of the pertaining to organized sector workers was discussed with the management of the company. The Management of the company equivocally felt that the overall syllabus of covers the important subjects like productivity, waste control, quality, absenteeism and accidents which they wanted to be imparted. It was also decided that to prepare the mindset of the trainees a general subject like ‘know your industry’ with special reference to cement industry would be discussed in the beginning of training class for each batch and in the last session before conclusion, a subject pertaining to good work practices to be followed by the participants would be discussed.

 

 

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT:

Training means the planned and organized activity to impart skills, techniques and methodologies to employers and their employees to assist them in establishing and maintaining employment and a place of employment that is safe and healthful.

The term ‘Training’ refers to the acquisition of specific skills or knowledge. Training programs attempt to teach trainees to perform a specific job and a particular activity.

Training and development are important activities in all organizations, large and small. Every organization, regardless of size, needs to have well-trained employees in its workforce who are prepared to perform their jobs.

The term ‘Development’ usually refers to improving the intellectual or emotional abilities needed to do a better job. Well trained, knowledgeable employees are a valuable resource for any business. When recruiting new employees, part of the recruitment process should be matching the prospective employee’s skills and experience to the job description and person specification. Training is one element many corporation consider when looking to advance people and offer promotions. Although many employees recognize the high value those in management place on training and development, some employees are still reluctant to be trained. Training and development offers more than just increased knowledge. Training is valuable to both the employee and the employer. Increased knowledge and skill makes the employee more productive in the workplace and thus more valuable.

 

Principles and Evaluation of training:

Training is the process of assisting a person for enhancing his efficiency and effectiveness at work by improving and updating his professional knowledge, by developing skills relevant to his work and cultivating appropriate behavior and attitude towards work and people. Training could be designed either for improving present capabilities at work or for preparing a person for assuming higher responsibilities in future, which would call for additional knowledge and superior skills.

Training is different from education particularly formal education. While education is concerned mainly with enhancement of knowledge, training aims essentially at increasing knowledge, stimulating aptitude and imparting skills related to a specific job.

In India, considerable importance has been accorded to training in social development and this is evident from the fact that the community spends roughly six million dollars annually on training every year. But there are complains about the ineffectiveness of training and possible wastage of resources because of the use of stereotyped and conventional methods in training, which are often not set completely in tune with job requirements.

 

  • It is a continuous process

Training is a continuous and life long process. Right form the time a child is born he starts receiving training from his mother for a variety of needs, so that he becomes a social being. His training continues in the school and the college situations. However training as an organized effort is designed with certain objectives, for example to help the trainees to be informed of the subject matter which they have to use in their work situation. Apart from change of attitudes, their skills have to be improved and knowledge or information has to be imparted through effective methods. In other words, training provides and synthesizing with the help of the trainers, the information already available on the subject. Training is a time-bound programme. Thus there is a separate specialized discipline of trainers specializing in the field of human activity.

 

  • Comparison of Prevailing and New Concept:-

Prevailing concept

New concept
1.      The acquisition of subject matter knowledge by a participant leads to action. 1.      Motivation and skills lead to action. Skills are acquired through practice.
2.      The participant learns what the trainer teaches. Learning is a simple function of the capacity of the participant to learn and the ability of the trainer to teach. 2.      Learning is a complex function of the motivation and capacity of the individual participant, the norms of the training groups the training methods and the behavior of the trainers and the general climate of the institution. The participant’s motivation is influenced by the climate of his work organization.
3.      Individual action leads to improvement on the job.

 

Improvement on the job is complex function of individual learning the norms of the working group and the general climate of the organization. Individual learning used leads to frustration.
4.      Training is the responsibility of the training institution. It begins and ends with the course. 3.      Training is the responsibility of three partners: the participant organization the participant, and the training institution. It has a preparatory pertaining and a subsequent, post-training phase. All are equally important to the success of training.

 

There has been in some quarter’s criticism of training and it is often argued that personnel can acquire administrative capabilities and work skills through apprenticeship capabilities and work skills through apprenticeship rather than through formal training. While the training cannot by itself guarantee the success of a development programme, its untrained personnel are unlikely to prove effective. It is in this context that expert administrators and planners greatly appreciate the relevance of training in development process.

  • The Training Cycle

A training cycle consists of a series of steps, which lead to a training event being undertaken. Evaluation provides feedback which links back to the initial stages of training design. Indeed, it is the evaluation/ feedback process, which makes this a cyclical event, without it training would be a linear process leading from initiating training through to its implementation. The steps in the cycle are:-

Stage1: Identification of training needs. Examining what skills and attributes are necessary for the job to be undertaken, the skills and attributes of the jobholder and the extent of the gap.

Stage2: Design, preparation and delivery of training.

Stage 3: Discovering the trainee’s attitude to training (reaction) and whether the training has been useful from the point of view of training. Reaction involves the participant’s feelings towards the training process, including the training content, the trainer and the training methods used. Learning is the extent to which the trainee has actually absorbed the content of the learning event.

Stage 4: Discovering whether the lessons learnt during training have been transferred to the job and are being used effectively in doing the job.

Stage5: Evaluating the effects of the training on the organization. Thus is the area on which there is perhaps most confusion, subsequently little real action to clear it.

Stage 6: Reinforcement of positive behavior. It is optimal that positive outcomes are maintained for as long as possible. It is not rare event for changes in behavior to be temporary, with a gentle slide back to previous ways of working. It is important to note the feedback loops. Feedback on the process of actually delivering the training can come from the reaction and learning stage, the transfer of the training to the work place and the evaluation of the impact of the training. The main, feedback for the identification of training needs comes from an assessment of the transfer of work to the training and the evaluation of the impact on the organization.

It is important to note that these feedback loops may consist of two very different types of information.

  • To determine the worth of training to the organization- a process best done by quantitative methods and with hard, numerical data.
  • Allowing insights into the method of learning, where the experience of those involved is the main focus, thus using mainly softer, qualitative information.

Internal Mobility:

There is a possibility in organizations that over a period of time an employee will change his role or position, from one job to another – laterally or vertically in the organization structure.   This kind of employees’ movement within an organization is known as internal mobility.  Internal mobility includes a cluster comprising, may take place between jobs in section, sections, departments, division or even between plants in multi – plant operations.

 

Promotion

Promotion is the upward reassignment of an individual in an organization’s hierarchy, accompanied by increased responsibilities, enhanced status, and usually with increased income, though not always so. On being promoted, the promoter’s duties and responsibilities increases, and the higher one goes in an organization the greater the implications of the individual’s decisions on the viability of the enterprise.  After promotion, an individual’s duties and responsibilities usually become qualitatively different from those of this earlier job.

The following are the objectives of promotion:

  1. It is recognition of a job well done by an employee.
  2. It is a device to retain and reward and employee for his years of service to the company.
  3. It is to increase individual and organizational effectiveness.
  4. It is to promote a sense of job satisfaction in the employee.
  5. It is to build loyalty, morale and a sense of belongingness in the employee.
  6. It is to impress upon others that opportunities are open to them also in the organization, if they perform well.

 

An internal mobility system also needs as supportive information system to make it viable. It is desirable to have a central, maintain a detailed inventory of the skills of all employees and coordinate all information – promo -table posts available, posts vacant, number of employees on transfer, permanent and temporary posts. When making internal mobility decisions, organizations tend to place emphasis on their objectives, filling job vacancies, eliminating employee surpluses, correcting behavioral problems, etc. Promotion maintains organizational effectiveness through maintenance of employee moral and favorable attitudes towards the organization.  Demotions frequently used as from of disciplinary action since it represents loss of status and earning. Transfers are required in the process of organization job requirements, job rotations and filling in absenteeism, separations and termination, such as discharge and dismissal, from a part of the outward mobility of an organization.

CHAPTER – 3

THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE

 

 

 

According to Andreas Gegenfurtner in 2000:

Motivation to transfer is essential for the transfer of training. Without motivation, newly acquired knowledge and skills will not be applied at work. The purpose of this integrative literature review is to summarize, critique, and synthesize past transfer motivation research and to offer directions for future investigations. First, seven contributions of past research are presented in an attempt to understand antecedents, correlates, and consequences of motivation to transfer. Second, an alternative view that complements and extends current approaches is discussed, and its implications for future studies investigating employees’ motivation for training application on the job are outlined.

According to Daniel J. Kealey, David R. Protheroe in 1999:

Numerous studies have addressed the question of whether cross-cultural training makes a difference to the overseas adaptation and work performance of expatriate personnel. While this literature contains many insights, most studies have methodological weaknesses which make it impossible to take as definitive the general consensus of the literature that such training is effective. This article attempts four tasks. First, it aims to dissaggregate the concept of intercultural training such that statements made about the effectiveness of training relate as precisely as possible to specific kinds of training, a desideratum which is often absent in the literature. Second, several criteria for reliable empirical research on the effectiveness of cross-cultural training are itemized. Third, the strength and weaknesses of the major studies to date on the issue are reviewed. And finally, an outline of the requisites for a more definitive empirical study, which would attempt to measure the impact of inter cultural training on overseas performance, is presented.

Dwivedi, P. and Pooja Purang (2007), examined the training needs identification and evaluation process by developing a case studies on the training needs identifications and evaluation system in 6 different Indian Organizations and them comparing it with the available models proposed by the various researchers in Western and Indian Context. The study also proposed to critically evaluate the various studies done and models developed in both Western and Indian context to arrive and proposed a comprehensive model of training needs identification and evaluation.

According to Willis D. Copeland in 2000:

The present study explored possible relationships between the intervention behaviors of cooperating EMPLOYEES and the organization exhibition by employees of skills’ acquired in microteaching training. Sixty-one teaching credential candidates engaged in student teaching were randomly assigned to positive and negative levels of three variables including microteaching training, training in supervision received by subjects’ cooperating faculty, and tendency of subjects’ cooperating faculty to exhibit the target teaching skill. The data, composed of frequency counts of subjects’ exhibition of the target skill in the classroom as recorded eight to twelve weeks following training, were analyzed using three-way ANOVA. Significant interaction effects were observed. Results are discussed in terms of implications for modification of faculty training programs.

According to Ian Menter in 1st December 2010:

This literature review provides an overview of how employees have been trained since the late 19th century up to the present day. It considers connections between creativity and faculty identity. The author concludes that employee’s professional identities have changed significantly over the last century and are now more complex and multi-faceted than previously, because of the growing range of expectations and relationships those employees now experience. He suggests a reinvention of the role may be timely, to create a flexible, confident sense of autonomous practice, open to collaboration and partnership, yet fuelled by a clear understanding of the unique and valuable contribution to society that employees make through the education of children.

The review identifies five areas that could be developed to contribute to a reconstructed professional identity: faculty collaboration and enquiry, pupil voice, community engagement, exploiting new technologies and creative partnerships. It recommends that these strands are taken into account in initial faculty education, early professional development as well as in CPD for experienced employees and organsaiton leaders.

Bhatia (1981), concluded that a shift from knowledge to attitude as the main objective of training. He identified three areas of training- technical skills and knowledge, knowledge of organization and external systems, and conceptual and interpersonal skills. He suggested that the emphasis on these three must vary according to the level of the employee. The workers training should focus on technical skills and knowledge followed by conceptual and interpersonal skills, and knowledge of organization and external systems. In the case of supervisors, conceptual and interpersonal skills should be emphasized followed by technical skills and knowledge, and knowledge of organization and external environment. As far as managers were concerned, the sequence was the same as that for supervisors except that the order of knowledge of organization and external environment, technical skills and knowledge were interchanged.

For training activity to be meaningful, Dayal (1970a), suggested that a detailed study of jobs and skill analysis was absolutely necessary. The training, thus, imparted would help the employee to adjust to their job requirements. As far as the supervisory category is concerned.  Ghosh (1984), stressed the need for behavioral inputs in any training programme organized for managers. Srinivasan (1977), recommended that their training programmes should focus on corporate planning, organizational development, and personnel management.

RECOMMENDAITON

To the Training Department: 

  • There should be more focus by the training department on TNA.
  • Effective way of organizing a training programme largely depends on the effectiveness of the training department. Hence, the training department must take adequate care on training.
  • The training department must facilitate 360 degree approach by planning a role of mentor among trainees-trainer-top-management.
  • Return on investment (ROI) i.e. expenditure on training must be encased by the organization through visible benefits.

To the Employees:

  • Employees should take training more seriously for the individual development as well as organizational development.
  • Employees should feel that training is the only way in which they can sharpen their knowledge and acquire more knowledge by means of learning.
  • Every employee should feel that training is expensive on the part of management. Simultaneously they spend their time, energy. Hence they must add value to their functional capabilities.
  • Employees need to be consulted to their superiors before attending the training programme to classify their doubts.

To the Management:

  • Training need assessment is the selection process for sponsoring training programmes. Hence, the process should be unbiased and made transparent based an actual need.
  • The organization should develop training of trainers (TOT) after critical analysis of various inputs of the trainers for conducting the training programme in an efficient way.
  • Inadequate or lack of infrastructure facilities sometimes creates problems for conducting training programme through in house. Hence adequate support must be given to develop right kind of infrastructure to conduct training programme.
