Effective Training

¶ … training system would integrate several different processes in order to achieve the objective of a proper training. The first step in any sort of training would be identifying the desired level of knowledge in a measurable form. The next step would be listing out the various qualifications or competencies necessary for taking part in any training system to produce the desired results. After this the trainee would have to undertake the necessary research steps by sourcing materials and other requirements for the training method to function at its best.

The trainee would now have to execute the methods best suitable to achieve proper training. The evaluation process for the training would have to be fair and unbiased and also take into account the industry for which the trainee is being trained; it would have to be recognized by the industry so that the trainee would be able to find placement in an easy manner. (Effective Intermediaries Training System) An example of an effective training system would be the one undertaken by the National Vocation Qualification, United Kingdom.

The company set up some objectives for the trainees like the amount of competence necessary in different fields like in carrying out routine jobs, as well as in doing jobs with the cooperation of others with a proper amount of responsibility. Once this tough training was completed, the trainees found it easy to enter the mainstream and take up significant positions in the related industry. (Case Study, National Vocational Qualification, United Kingdom) Another example of effective training would be the training method adapted by Roy Harris, a judo instructor.

This training method is supposed to be followed by his students in order to gain more effective training from the same training capsule. Roy Harris initially identifies the areas that need to be concentrated on, in this case, the mental and physical attributes of the trainee, his technical know how on the basics of judo, and also his use of perfect strategy.

He then goes on to elaborate the different methods of gaining technical expertise in the field of judo and also in developing the various attributes of a judo exponent. Strategy can be developed, he says, once the other attributes are well studied and exploited. Strategy, he says, is nothing but a well planned out method or plan to achieve their specific goal.

The final step towards success in effective training, Roy Harris feels, is the identification of weaknesses, if any, and going about overcoming these, in order to succeed in the field of judo, and effective training would only be as good as the amount of effort the trainee would be willing to put into it. (Effective Training methods) Whatever the field of training, the fact remains that the principle behind any training program is that only a professional would be able to impart training to another professional.

The prerequisite conditions of a training program would be the presence of skilled and effective teachers, cost effective courses and materials for learning, individual attention to all the trainees, and, finally, practical training and hands on experience. The company that wants to employ training for their employees would initially have to formulate a plan that would identify the specific areas that need to be developed. A target would be planned, keeping in mind the persons to be trained and the goals to be achieved by such training.

The trainees would be given hands on practical training by the management of the company so that they would familiarize themselves with the intricacies and the nuances of the working of their company. In today's world of highly advanced technology, the training could be in the form of customized software that would completely eliminate the need for other more expensive methods. These methods would involve the direct training at the website of the company.

The trainer could come to the site and impart the training that is required, thereby eliminating the need for travel expenses and the ensuing costs for the company. The other advantage would be that the trainee would not need to work in an unfamiliar environment- he would work in the place where he would be working in the future.

(Six Sigma Soft Solutions, Training) A learning objective of an effective training program in any field would include the awareness of the trainer, in the relevant field, of the importance of a research report that would not only avoid all the pitfalls of a research report but also use effective communication methods in presenting such information. A common reporting style would use bullet charts and graphic presentations thereby minimizing the number of words used for the report.

(Communicating the search results) A learning objective is the listing of the opportunities of a student or a trainee at the end of the course or the program. It is generally made up of three major sections: a behavior, a condition, and a standard. What the trainee is usually expected to do after his training is the 'behavior' part of the program. It is written using a subject, a verb, and an object.

For example, if the verb is 'skill', then the object (or action verb) could be 'demonstrate' or 'manipulate' or 'construct'. The trainee is the subject, the action of the trainee is the verb, and the action verb acts upon the object. A 'condition' comprises the circumstances under which the trainee undergoes his training. These may be the resources available to him for his training, and the limits that exist on the performance of his objective.

The 'condition' may be written by initially examining the source that has been identified for the task. There may be several types of conditions. The 'standard' element of an objective means the standard of performance or behavior of the trainee, which is generally 100%. It can emphasize on the quality and the quantity of performance. (Charting a Course) However, the point to be stressed here is the fact that computer-based training offers advantages that any other alternative methods would not be able to. Interactivity is a concept unique to the computer.

It makes the trainee engage in thinking and receiving feedbacks in a more positive way. His retentive powers are also enhanced because he can choose the materials that interest him the most and skip the rest to peruse later. The excellent cost effectiveness and the convenience for the trainee in staying at the place of his convenience to learn are added advantages. The best advantage of a CBT would be the customization of a training program that would reach people from different walks of life, with different knowledge levels.

A trainee could therefore undergo training without traveling and.
