INTRODUCTION

Training can be introduced simply as a process of assisting a person for


enhancing his efficiency and effectiveness to a particular work area by
getting more knowledge and practices. Also training is important to
establish specific skills, abilities and knowledge to an employee. For an
organization, training and development are important as well as
organizational growth, because the organizational growth and profit are
also dependent on the training. But the training is not a core of
organizational development. It is a function of the organizational
development.

Training is different form education; particularly formal education. The


education is concerned mainly with enhancement of knowledge, but the
aims of training are increasing knowledge while changing attitudes and
competences in good manner. Basically the education is formulated
within the framework and to syllabus, but the training is not formed in to
the frame and as well as syllabus. It may differ from one employee to
another, one group to another, even the group in the same class. The
reason for that can be mentioned as difference of attitudes and skills from
one person to another. Even the situation is that, after good training
programme, all different type skilled one group of employees can get in
to similar capacity, similar skilled group.

In the field of Human Resources Management, Training and


Development is the field concern with organizational activities which are
aimed to bettering individual and group performances in organizational
settings. It has been known by many names in the field HRM, such as
employee development, human resources development, learning etc.
Training and Development is the framework for helping employees to
develop their personal and organizational skills, knowledge, and abilities.
The focus of all aspects of Human Resource Development is on
developing the most superior workforce so that the organization and
individual employees can accomplish their work goals in service to
customers.

All employees want to be valuable and remain competitive in the labour


market at all times, because they make some demand for employees in
the labour market. This can only be achieved through employee training
and development. Hence employees have a chance to negotiate as well as
employer has a good opportunity to select most suitable person for his
vacancy. Employees will always want to develop career-enhancing skills,
which will always lead to employee motivation. There is no doubt that a
well trained and developed staff will be a valuable asset to the company
and thereby increasing the chances of his efficiency in discharging his
duties.

Trainings in an organization can be mainly of two types; Internal and


External training sessions. Internal training involves when training is
organized in-house by the human resources department or training
department using either a senior staff or any talented staff in the
particular department as a resource person.

On the other hand external training is normally arranged outside the firm
and is mostly organized by training institutes or consultants. Whichever
training, it is very important for all staff and helps in building career
positioning and preparing staff for greater challenges in developing
world. However the training is costly. Because of that, people who work
at firms do not receive external trainings most of times. Training
programmes in Sri Lanka. But nowadays, a new concept has come with
these trainings which are “Trainers through trainees”. While training
their employees in large quantities, many countries use that method in
present days to reduce their training costs. The theory of this is, sending
a little group or an individual for a training programme under a bonding
agreement or without a bond. When they come back to work, the
externally trained employees train the employees who have not
participated for above training programme by internal training
programmes.

Employers of labour should enable employees to pursue training and


development in a direction that they choose and are interested in, not just
in company-assigned directions. Companies should support learning, in
general, and not just in support of knowledge needed for the employee's
current or next anticipated job. It should be noted that the key factor is
keeping the employee interested, attending, engaged, motivated and
retained.

For every employee to perform well, especially Supervisors and


Managers, there is a need for constant training and development. The
right employee training, development and education provides big payoffs
for the employer in increased productivity, knowledge, loyalty, and
contribution to general growth of the firm. In most cases external
trainings for instance provide participants with the avenue to meet new
set of people in the same field and network. The meeting will give them
the chance to compare issues and find out what is obtainable in each
other's environment.
It is not mentioned in any where that the employers, managers and
supervisors are not suitable for training programmes. They also must be
highly trained if they are expected to do their best for the organization.
Through that they will have best abilities and competencies to manage the
organization. Training employees not only creates a more positive
corporate culture, but also add a value to its key resources.
Raw human resources can make only limited contribution to the
organization to achieve its goals and objectives. Hence the demands for
the developed employees are continuously increasing. Thus the training is
a kind of investment.

It is a learning process that involves the acquisition of knowledge,


sharpening of skills, concepts, rules, or changing of attitudes and
behaviours to enhance the performance of employees.
Training is activity leading to skilled behaviour

Training and Development in IT/Software Development Industry

The Indian IT sector is growing at a very fast pace and is expected to earn
a revenue of US $87 billion by 2018. In 2016, it has earned revenue of
about US $ 40 billion with a growth rate of 30%. IT sector is expected to
generate 2.3 million jobs by 2022, according to NASSCOM (National
Association of Software and Service Companies)

With this rapid expansion of IT sector and coming up of major players


and new technologies like SAP, the need of human resource development
has increased.

According to the recent review by Harvard Business Review, there is a


direct link between training investment of the companies and the market
capitalization. Those companies with higher training investment had
higher market capitalization. It clearly indicates that the companies which
have successfully implemented training programs have been able to
deliver customer goals with effective results. It shows that good training
results in enhancement of individual performance, which in turn, helps
the organization in achieving its business goals. Training is a tool that can
help in gaining competitive advantage in terms of human resource.

With the growing investment by IT companies in the development of


their employees many companies have now started their own learning
centres. As an example, Sun has its own training department. Accenture
has Internet based tool by the name of “My Learning” that offers access
to its vast learning resources to its employees. Companies are investing in
both the technical training, which has always been an essential part in IT
industry, as well as in managerial skills development. Companies now
kept aside 3-5% of revenue for training programs. As an example, some
of the major players like Tata Alexi and Accenture are allocating 7% and
3% respectively of the company’s overall revenue.

The specific areas where training is given in IT/Software Development


sector are:

• Computer Manufacturing
• EDP/ E- Commerce
• Designing
• Maintenance Service
• Operating jobs, Computer operators, Data Entry
• System Developing /Programming /Software Engineering
• Networking

Purpose of Training and Development

Reasons for emphasizing the growth and development of personnel


include

• Creating a pool of readily available and adequate replacements for


personnel who may leave or move up in the organization.
• Enhancing the company's ability to adopt and use advances in
technology because of a sufficiently knowledgeable staff.
• Building a more efficient, effective and highly motivated team,
which enhances the company's competitive position and improves
employee morale.

• Ensuring adequate human resources for expansion into new


programs.

Research has shown specific benefits that a small business receives from
training and developing its workers, including:

• Increased productivity.
• Reduced employee turnover.
• Increased efficiency resulting in financial gains.
• Decreased need for supervision.

Employees frequently develop a greater sense of self-worth, dignity and


well-being as they become more valuable to the firm and to society.
Generally they will receive a greater share of the material gains that result
from their increased productivity. These factors give them a sense of
satisfaction through the achievement of personal and company goals.
Training Methods

There are two broad types of training available to small businesses: on-
the-job and off-the-job techniques. Individual circumstances and the
"who," "what" and "why" of your training program determine which
method to use.
On-the-job training is delivered to employees while they perform their
regular jobs. In this way, they do not lose time while they are learning.
After a plan is developed for what should be taught, employees should be
informed of the details. A timetable should be established with periodic
evaluations to inform employees about their progress. On-the-job
techniques include orientations, job instruction training, apprenticeships,
internships and assistantships, job rotation and coaching.

Off-the-job techniques include lectures, special study, films, television


conferences or discussions, case studies, role playing, simulation,
programmed instruction and laboratory training. Most of these techniques
can be used by small businesses although, some may be too costly.

Orientations are for new employees. The first several days on the job are
crucial in the success of new employees. This point is illustrated by the
fact that 60 percent of all employees who quit do so in the first ten days.
Orientation training should emphasize the following topics:

• The company's history and mission.


• The key members in the organization.
• The key members in the department, and how the department helps
fulfil the mission of the company.
• Personnel rules and regulations.
Some companies use verbal presentations while others have written
presentations. Many small businesses convey these topics in one-on-one
orientations. No matter what method is used, it is important that the
newcomer understand his or her new place of employment.

Lectures present training material verbally and are used when the goal is
to present a great deal of material to many people. It is more cost
effective to lecture to a group than to train people individually. Lecturing
is one-way communication and as such may not be the most effective
way to train. Also, it is hard to ensure that the entire audience understands
a topic on the same level; by targeting the average attendee you may
undertrained some and lose others. Despite these drawbacks, lecturing is
the most cost-effective way of reaching large audiences.

Role playing and simulation are training techniques that attempt to


bring realistic decision making situations to the trainee. Likely problems
and alternative solutions are presented for discussion. The adage there is
no better trainer than experience is exemplified with this type of training.
Experienced employees can describe real world experiences, and can help
in and learn from developing the solutions to these simulations. This
method is cost effective and is used in marketing and management
training.

Audiovisual methods such as television, videotapes and films are the


most effective means of providing real world conditions and situations in
a short time. One advantage is that the presentation is the same no matter
how many times it's played. This is not true with lectures, which can
change as the speaker is changed or can be influenced by outside
constraints. The major flaw with the audiovisual method is that it does
not allow for questions and interactions with the speaker, nor does it
allow for changes in the presentation for different audiences.

Job rotation involves moving an employee through a series of jobs so he


or she can get a good feel for the tasks that are associated with different
jobs. It is usually used in training for supervisory positions. The
employee learns a little about everything. This is a good strategy for
small businesses because of the many jobs an employee may be asked to
do.

Apprenticeships develop employees who can do many different tasks.


They usually involve several related groups of skills that allow the
apprentice to practice a particular trade, and they take place over a long
period of time in which the apprentice works for, and with, the senior
skilled worker. Apprenticeships are especially appropriate for jobs
requiring production skills.

Internships and assistantships are usually a combination of classroom


and on-the-job training. They are often used to train prospective
managers or marketing personnel.

Programmed learning, computer-aided instruction and interactive video


all have one thing in common: they allow the trainee to learn at his or her
own pace. Also, they allow material already learned to be bypassed in
favour of material with which a trainee is having difficulty. After the
introductory period, the instructor need not be present, and the trainee can
learn as his or her time allows. These methods sound good, but may be
beyond the resources of some small businesses.

Laboratory training is conducted for groups by skilled trainers. It


usually is conducted at a neutral site and is used by upper- and middle
management trainees to develop a spirit of teamwork and an increased
ability to deal with management and peers. It can be costly and usually is
offered by larger small businesses.

Evaluation of Training

Training should be evaluated several times during the process. Determine


these milestones when you develop the training. Employees should be
evaluated by comparing their newly acquired skills with the skills defined
by the goals of the training program. Any discrepancies should be noted
and adjustments made to the training program to enable it to meet
specified goals. Many training programs fall short of their expectations
simply because the administrator failed to evaluate its progress until it
was too late. Timely evaluation will prevent the training from straying
from its goals.
Training Cycle

Stage 1 - Identification of training needs


This initial stage of the training cycle addresses finding out if there is, or
identifying, training need. If a need is identified, it is at this stage that
who needs trained (target audience), in what and how you will know the
training has had the intended impact success criteria of the training
should be identified. This stage will help those who identify training
needs to consider why the training is required and its expected outcome
and impact.
How you will measure if the training has met the original need i.e.
brought about intended change in behaviour, performance.

Stage 2 - Design of training solutions


This stage covers planning, design and development of magistrate
training. It aims to ensure that a systematic and consistent approach is
adopted for all training solutions. Training solutions cover face to face
training and open and flexible learning including e-learning.

Stage 3 - Delivery of training solutions


This stage of the training cycle ensures that the delivery of the training is
effective and provides opportunities for the learners to learn. This will
involve choosing the most appropriate format for meeting training needs,
and taking advantage of different training methods.

Stage 4 - Application of training in the court environment


This stage of the training cycle is concerned with ensuring that all
learning outcomes are applied and reinforced in practice within the court
environment. This stage will help those who monitor the development of
individual learners and review their progress.
Stage 5 - Evaluation of training solutions
This stage of the training cycle deals with the collection, analysis and
presentation of information to establish the improvement in performance
that results from this.This stage will help those who evaluate learning
programmes, or who respond to developments in learning, or plan and
introduce improvements in learning interventions.
