CHAPTER 6

Areas for Future Work

This study has opened many new frontiers of research activities in the area of

implementation and practices of design and evaluation of training. One of the

constraints of present study is smaller sample size (only one zonal Railway).

The findings of present work can be verified with larger sample size in future

and more reliable results can also be obtained.

Intensive studies can also be undertaken to study the significance of other

factors on performance both in case of design and evaluation of training.

Study of various modes of integration of design and evaluation of training and

their effect on business performance is also subject of importance. This can be

explored to find the best possible modes of integration.

Both profitability and operating performance are final outcomes of any

improvement drive and a direct relationship between these outcomes and

efforts made for imparting trainmg is difficult to establish. Therefore, there is

a need to develop intermediate diagnostic measures so that effectiveness of

training can be assessed with better accuracy and ROI calculated with

objectivity and validity.
