HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT

Training in ELSA

Since the implementation of the Training Orientation Programme (TOP) which is the basicstructural framework for general Training at all levels of the organisation, ELSA has tried todevelop its members through the provision of training at said levels.

Supplemental thereto, the Human Resources Development Concept (HRDC) now focuses onthe individual member and his/her development according to the required skills, knowledge andattitudes for the respective positions in the organisation.The fulfilment of the concept presumes a Director for Training at local, national and

international levels of ELSA. According to the job description it is the responsibility of thatDirector to ensure the development of each individual member.

Referring to the philosophy statement HRDC tries to ensure that training resources andactivities are used to contribute to our aims and our philosophy.
