    INTRODUCTION

    1.1. Introduction

    Of all the factors of production, man is by far the most important. The importance

    of human factor in any type of co- operative endeavors cannot be emphasized. It is a

    matter of common knowledge that every business organization depends for its effective

    functioning not so much on its material or financial resources as on its pool of able and

    willing human resources. The human resource becomes even more important in the

    service industry whose value is delivered through information, personal interaction or

    group work. The overwhelming importance of this factor is due to its unique

    characteristics.

    This is the only resource, which can produce unlimited amounts through better

    ideas. There is no apparent limit to what people can accomplish when they are motivated

    to use their potential to create new and better ideas. No other resource can do this. This

    resource is animate, active and living. It is men alone who with his ability to feel, think,

    conceive and grow shows satisfaction or dissatisfaction, resentment or pleasure,

    resistance or acceptance for all types of managerial actions.

    Human resource is most complex and unpredictable in its behavior. Each

    individual has his own unique background. This makes individual unique in hispsychological framework. No two individuals have exactly similar psychological

    frameworks. Hence, they cannot be treated alike. It is only this resource, which

    appreciates in value with the passage of time. As time passes people become experienced

    and skilled. It is not so with other resources, which generally depreciate as time, goes on.

    TRAINING:

    Meaning:

    No industrial organization can ignore the training and development needs of its

    employees. Since people are not molded to specifications and rarely meet the demands of

    their jobs adequately. Two trends have contributed, in recent years to more attention

    being given to training. Fewer and fewer skills are now regarded inborn that cannot be

    taught. It is hoped that one can learn almost all aspects of a job by reading. That is why

    we find now a days almost all technical details of a job written out in the instruction

    manuals. The accelerated rate of technological change in the plant, office and market

    place is making many skills obsolete. Workers have to be retrained to do new tasks.

    With regard to training, the basic policy issues to be decided are:

    How are training needs to be decided?

    How training curriculum should be designed?

    How should follow up and evaluation be done?

    How should post training support be given?

    Objectives:

    To impart new entrants the basic knowledge and skills required for efficient

    performance of definite tasks

    To assist the employees to function more effectively in their present positions by

    exposing them to the latest concepts, information and techniques and developing

    the skills they would require in their particular fields

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    7/106

    To build up a second line of competent officers and prepare them to occupy more

    responsible positions

    To broaden the minds of the senior managers through interchange of experience

    within and outside so as to correct the narrow outlook caused doe to over

    specialization

    2

    Importance:

    Training is the corner stone of sound management for it makes employees more

    effective and productive. It is actively and intimately connected with all the personnel

    and managerial activities. It is an integral part of the whole management programme,

    with all its many activities functionally inter-related.

    The importance of training has been expressed in these words Training is a

    widely accepted problem solving device. Indeed our national superiority in manpower

    productivity can be attributed in no small measure to the success of our educational and

    industrial training programmes. This success has been achieved by a tendency in many

    quarters to regard to training a panacea. It is almost traditional in America to believe that

    if something is good, more of the thing is even better. Over and under emphasis ontraining stems largely from inadequate recognition and determination of training needs

    and objectives. They stem also from back recognition of the professional techniques of

    modern industrial training.

    1.2. Need for the study:

    Many companies go beyond training employees for specific job skills by offering

    programmes of general educational content. The companys rationale for such

    programmes will benefit the company in intangible ways through a change in employees

    attitudes.

    The major need for the programme is to evaluate the effectiveness of the training

    by studying the existing training process in the company and to determine the factor like:

    Problem solving skills of the trainees

    Improved interpersonal skills of the trainees

    Ability of the trainees to acquire knowledge

    Interest of the trainees during training period

    To analyze the training outcome.

    1.3. Scope of the study:

    The study was ultimately aimed at determining the effectiveness of Training

    System as a whole in the company to check whether training programmes given to the

    employees are under good environment, proper infrastructure and other facilities.

    The areas enclosed under the project are as follows:

    Type of training programmes conducted

    Duration of the programme

    The way the programme being organized

    Coverage of various topics

    RESEARCH

    METHODOLOGY

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    22/106

    MEANING:

    A research cannot be conducted abruptly. Researcher has to proceed

    systematically in the already planned direction with the help of a number of steps in

    sequence. To make the research systemized the researcher has to adopt certain methods.

    The methods adopted by the researcher for completing the study are called research

    methodology. In other words Research Methodology is simply the plan of action for a

    research which explains in detail how data is to be collected, analyzed and interpreted.

    Data becomes information only when a proper methodology is adopted. Thus we

    can say Methodology is a tool which processes the data in to reliable information. The

    present chapter attempt to highlight the research adopted in this project.

    COMPONENTS OF RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:

    Research Design

    Type of Data

    Data Collection

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    23/106

    Sampling Plan

    Statistical Tools used

    RESEARCH DESIGN:

    According to Gohada, Deutish and Cook, A research Design is the arrangement

    of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine

    relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure. The research design

    adopted in the study is descriptive.

    16

    TYPE OF DATA:

    Primary Data:

    The primary data is collected from the employees of the company. For this

    purpose direct personal interview and a questionnaire was prepared.

    Secondary Data:

    The secondary data and the extensive literature on selection procedure were

    collected from journals, articles, magazines and various websites. Information

    was also collected from company records, company data base, brochures and

    catalogues.

    DATA COLLECTION:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    24/106

    Keeping in mind the aims, objectives and the fact that all the respondents for the

    study were educated, mostly questionnaire is used for data collection. Direct personal

    interview is also used to some extent for the study. The questionnaire was given to the

    employees for responses. The questionnaire consisted various aspects like open ended,

    close ended, multiple choice etc.,

    SAMPLING PLAN:

    Sampling may be defined as the selection of some part of an aggregate or totality.

    On the basis of which a judgement of inference about the aggregate or totality is made.

    Research conducted by considering only a few units of population is called sampling.

    Sampling is an important and persuasive activity. Sampling techniques has got its own

    advantages:

    17

    Reduce cost owing to a study of selected units from the population

    Greater speed is there due to smaller units to be studied

    Greater accuracy in results

    Greater depth of information

    Reservation of units for reuse in destructive nature of experiments is possible.

    SAMPLE SIZE:

    The sample consists of 200 employees of the company who had undergone the

    training programme.

    SAMPLING TECHNIQUE:

    Non probability convenience sampling was used in the study and sampling units

    are chosen primarily in accordance to the convenience.

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    25/106

    STATISTICAL TOOLS USED:

    Percentage Analysis & Graphs: Percentage refers for every hundred. It is

    used to make easy comparisons of fractions. In the study, fractions of respondents

    choosing different answers are converted into percentages and interpretations are

    made.

    Formula:

    % of Respondents= No of respondents * 100

    No of Total Respondents

    18

    Chi- Square Method: It is a non parametric test used most frequentlyto test the

    hypothesis. This aims at determining whether significant difference exists among

    groups of data or whether differences are due to sampling. It describes the

    discrepancy theory and observation. This test is done to find the dependence of

    one factor over the other.

    Formula:

    X2 = (O-E)2/ E.

    Where E is the expected frequency

    O is the observed frequency

    Degree of Freedom = (r-1) (c-1)

    Properties of Chi- Square:

    X2 cannot be negative in value, it is Zero or Positive

    X2 are not symmetrical, it is skewed to the right

    There is a different X2 distribution for every number of degree of freedom

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    26/106

    For degree of freedom exceeding 30, the X2 distribution is approximated by

    normal distribution.

    RANKING METHOD [ USING WEIGHTAGES]:

    Weights or points are allotted for each of the ranks and here the individual

    responses for various ranks of a single factor are multiplied by their weightages. For

    example rank 1 is given 4 points; rank 2 is given 3 points. The summation is obtained.

    The procedure is similarly done for the other attributes and finally the attributes are

    ranked accordingly.

    REVIEW OF

    LITERATURE

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    Training is an act of increasing the knowledge and skill of an employee for doing

    a particular job. It is concerned with imparting specific job related skill to the employee.

    The aim of training is to develop some specific skill in an individual. It is mostly a

    preparation to meet individuals present needs. It can thus be seen as a reactive process.

    Need for Training:

    To train the employees in the company culture pattern

    To train the employee to increase his quantity and quality of output. This may

    involve improvement in work methods or skills

    To train employee for promotion to higher jobs

    To train the bright but dronish employee in the formation of his goals. This may

    involve instructions in initiative and drive

    To train employee towards better job adjustment and high morale

    To reduce supervision, wastage and accidents. Development of effective work

    habits and methods of work should contribute towards a reduction in the accident

    rate, less supervision and wastage of material

    Principles of training:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    28/106

    The most important objective of HRD is to create learning environment in

    organization so that the member of organization continuously learns and acquires

    competencies. In order to make the learning environment effective certain principles need

    to be followed.

    20

    KNOWLEDGE OF RESULTS:

    Every employee in a learning situation wants to know what is expected of him and

    how well he is doing. He seeks information, appraisal and guidance about his progress

    and is made uneasy by the possibility that he may be making some serious error in his

    behavior and not knowing that he is doing so. Knowledge of results affects learning in 2

    ways:

    It provides the trainees basis for correcting his error

    It produces motivational effect on the trainee

    MOTIVATION:

    A motivated worker learns better than an unmotivated one. Until the worker has

    become convinced of the need of training and of the worthwhileness of the returns the

    level of motivation will be low and learning will be slow.

    REINFORCEMENT:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    29/106

    In order for behavior to be acquired, modified and sustained it must be rewarded.

    But reward should be distributed cautiously or discretely. Praising an inefficient and poor

    learner may disappoint good trainees.

    Principle of reinforcement also states that punishment is les effective than reward.

    Punishment tends to fix the undesirable behavior rather than to eliminate it. It may also

    develop in the trainee a dislike for the punishment giver. However mild punishment is

    quite effective if administered immediately following the incorrect response. Similarly

    fairy immediate reinforcement should be provided for desirable behavior.

    21

    SUPPORTING CLIMATE AND PRACTICE:

    Practice makes a man perfect. In order that the trainee may not revert back to the

    old behavior, it is essential that he practice the new learning daily. The internal

    environments of many organizations are hostile to this. Too often the trainee is not able to

    implement in his work place what he has learned during the training session.

    PART vs. WHOLE LEARNING:

    This controversial issue is concerned with whether it is more efficient to practice

    a whole task all at once or whether sub tasks or component tasks should be mastered first

    before integrating them into the whole task performance. In a comprehensive literature

    review Naylor found that the answer to this question seemed to depend on the

    characteristics of the tasks which the trainees were attempting to master. Tasks were seen

    to differ in complexity (the difficulty of each of the separate task component viewed

    individually) and organization (the extent to which such tasks are interrelated). Naylor

    then suggested the following training principles:

    Given a task of relatively high organization, as task complexity increases whole

    learning becomes more efficient than part learning.

    Given a task if relatively low organization, as task complexity increases part

    learning becoming more efficient than whole.

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    30/106

    TRANSFER OF LEARNING:

    Transfer of learning from the training to the job would depend upon the extent to

    which there are identical elements in two. Thus if the devices used in training were

    similar to those on the job and there would be positive transfer of learning. This means

    that the trained employee would be superior in performance on the job to an untrained

    individual. But if the physical and psychological fidelities are wanting there would be

    negative transfer of learning. This means that the trained would display inferior

    performance on the job. If incorrect work methods are learned once, there may be

    considerable difficulty encountered in rejecting these methods.

    22

    PEDAGOGY vs. ANDRAGOGY:

    Pedagogy is based on the mechanistic model of man. In this model man is

    regarded as a passive robot, reactive organism, which is inherently at rest. Activity in him

    is viewed as the result of external forces. The purpose of education according to this

    model is to transmit knowledge and skill and shape the individual to a predetermined

    mould. As a consequence pedagogy emphasizes designing the content of learning in

    advance. It says that the trainer should decide in advance what knowledge or skills need

    to be transmitted.

    Andragogy is based on the organic model man. This model regards man as an

    inherently active organism- the source of acts rather than the collection of acts initiated

    by the external forces. The purpose of education according to this model is the

    continuous development of individuals towards their full potentials a consequence,

    andragogys emphasis is on the significance of the processes over products and on

    qualitative change over quantitative change. Its stress is on the role of training as the

    source of development.

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    31/106

    HRD is mostly based on andragogy. The andragogical teacher prepares in

    advance a set of procedures for involving the learners in a process involving the

    following elements:

    Establishing a climate conducive to learning

    Creating a mechanism for mutual planning

    Formulating the needs for learning

    Diagnosing the needs for learning

    Formulating programme objectives that will satisfy these needs

    Designing a pattern of learning experiences in which the learner can examine the

    implications of his behavior and finally reflect on his experience

    Developing human resources development personnel

    Evaluating the learning outcomes and rediagnosing learning needs

    23

    CRITERIA FOR SETTING TRAINING OBJECTIVE

    Nature and size of the group to be trained

    Roles and tasks to be coined out by the target group

    Relevance, applicability and compatibility of training to the work situation

    Existing and desired behavior defined in terms of ratio, frequency, quality of

    interaction, repetitiveness, innovations, supervision etc.,

    Operational results to be achieved through training e.g, productivity cost, down

    time, creativity, turnover etc.,

    Identification of the behavior where change is required

    Indicators to be used in determining changes from existing to the desired level in

    terms of ratio and frequency.

    METHODS OF TRAINING;

    ON THE JOB TRAINING:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    32/106

    In this method the trainee is placed on a regular job and taught the skills necessary

    to perform it. The trainee learns under the guidance and supervision the superior or an

    instructor. The trainee learns by observing and handling the job. Therefore it is called

    learning by doing.

    Several methods are used to provide on the job training e.g. Coaching, job

    rotation, commitment assignments etc., A popular form of the on the job training is Job

    Instruction Training (JIT) or step by step learning. It is widely used in the US to prepare

    supervisors. It appropriate for acquisition or improvement of motor skills and routine and

    repetitive operations

    JIT method provides immediate feedback, permits quick correction of errors and

    provides extra practice when required. But it needs skilled trainers and preparation in

    advance.

    24

    VESTIBULE TRAINING:

    In this method a training centre called vestibule is set up and actual job conditions

    are duplicated or stimulated in it. Expert trainers are employed to provide training with

    the help of equipment and machines which are identical with those is used at the work

    place.

    APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING:

    In this method, theoretical instruction and practical learning are provided to

    trainees in training institutes. In India the Government has established Industrial Training

    Institute for this purpose. Under the apprenticeship act 1962 employers in specified

    industries are required to train the prescribed number of persons in designated trades.

    The aim is to develop all round craftsmen. Generally a stipend is paid during the training

    period. Thus it is an earn when you learn scheme.

    CLASS ROOM TRAINING:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    33/106

    Under this method training is provided in company class rooms or in educational

    institutions. Lectures, case studies, group discussions and audio visual aids are used to

    explain knowledge and skills to the trainees. Classroom training is suitable for teaching

    concepts and problem solving.

    INTERNSHIP TRAINING:

    It is a joint of training in which educational institutions and business firms

    cooperate. Selected candidates carry on regular studies for the prescribed period. They

    also work in some factory or office to acquire practical knowledge and skills. This

    method helps to provide a good balance between theory and practice.

    25

    ORIENTATION TRAINING:

    Induction or orientation training seeks to adjust newly appointed employees to the

    work environment. Every new employee needs to be made fully familiar with his job, his

    supervisors and sub ordinates and with the rules and regulations of the organization.

    Induction training creates self confidence in the employees. It is also known as pre job

    training. It is brief and informative.

    JOB TRAINING:

    It refers to the training provided with a view to increase the knowledge and skills

    of an employee for improving performance on the job. Employees may be taught the

    correct methods of handling equipment and machines used in a job. Such training helps

    to reduce accidents, waste and inefficiency in the performance of the job.

    SAFETY TRAINING:

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    34/106

    Training provided to minimize accidents and damage to machinery is known as

    safety training, it involves instruction in the use of safety devices and in safety

    consciousness.

    PROMOTIONAL TRAINING:

    It involves training of existing employees to enable them to perform higher level

    jobs. Employees with potential are selected and they are given training before their

    promotion so that they do not find it difficult to shoulder the higher responsibilities of the

    new positions to which they are promoted.

    26

    REFRESHER TRAINING:

    When existing techniques become obsolete due to the development of better

    techniques, employees have to be trained in the use of new methods and techniques. With

    the passage of time employees may forgot some of the methods of doing work. Refresher

    training is designed to revive and refresh the knowledge and to update the skills of the

    existing employees. Short term refresher courses have become popular on account of

    rapid changes in technology and work methods. Refresher or re training are conducted to

    avoid obsolescence of knowledge and skills.

    REMEDIAL TRAINING:

    Such training is arranged to overcome the short comings in the behavior and

    performance of old employees. Some of the experienced employees might have picked

    up appropriate methods and styles of working. Such employees are identified and correct

    work methods and procedures are taught to them. Remedial training should be conducted

    by psychological experts.

    Applicable to all employees whose work affects the quality of products.

    Training Process at HCL Infosystems:

    Training needs are identified by respective departments every year in June

    through the training need identification matrix

    27

    The copy of the training needs identified are sent to the HR department for

    scrutinisation and importance with top management and respective department

    need.

    Based on the approval on training need by the top management an annual training

    plan is prepared

    The training plan details the topics to be covered and tentative month of training

    Based on the training plan, HR Manager prepares the training schedule for the

    month well in advance detailing the participant date, venue, topic and faculty and

    duration

    All the training arrangements, training materials will be co coordinated by HR

    department

    Training will be conducted as per plan and training attendance will be recordedthrough training attendance report

    A training feed back effectiveness form is circulated to the participants and their

    feed back is obtained

  • 7/29/2019 28974124 Effectiveness of Training

    36/106

    The training effectiveness is evaluated by means of post testing by trainer or

    implementation effectiveness review by the respective HOD on the training feed

    back effectiveness record

    The record is sent to the HR department by the respective department as evidence

    of effectiveness verification

    In case of the report is satisfactory, the stock report is recorded and updated in the

    HR department

    If it is not satisfactory, retraining schedule is prepared and executed till the

    expected results are achieved.
