Synopsis

Plans laid down in the recent government White Paper, "Employment for the 1990s" emphasise the increasingly important role training now plays. Companies, organizations and government are recognising the need for adequate, consistent and long-term investment in training for the work force at all levels. Written especially for newcomers to the training function, those in large organizations who spend a short period in training as part of their career path and students preparing for IPM and ITD qualifications, this handbook examines all the major training issues including: training objectives, the role of training in organizations, theoretical models of training (Ekstand, Mager, Gillbert, Gagne, Romiszowski, etc), proactive and reactive assessments of training needs, training strategies and training methods, validation, evaluation and assessment of training.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Theory and Practice of Training, now in its 6th edition, provides a wide-ranging outline of the major instructional and training concepts, and their relationship to training in practice. The authors have expanded on information relating to the training environment, equipment, and strategies, as well as new material on cognitive task analysis (CTA). With real-life case studies to illustrate the theory, this engaging and practical book is as valuable to those who want to put their training experience into a coherent context, as it is to managers who need to understand the role that training can play.
