    Training & Development

    Leaving Certificate Business


    Unit 4 - HRM

    Training & Development


    HRM recognises that staff may need ongoing
    training and development in order to perform
    at the highest level of efficiency.
    There are a number of different types of
    training a HR manager will engage in.
    Induction Training
    On-the-job Training
    Off-the-job Training
    Development

    1. Induction Training
    Induction training may be required for new
    recruits. This is the very first training given to
    a new employee when they start the job.
    It involves teaching them about the business,
    its staff, its culture and operating procedures.
    The purpose is to familiarise them with the
    business and help them settle in as quickly as
    possible.

    2. On-the-job Training
    Existing staff may need specific on-the-job
    skills training, particularly when work
    practices or technology change. This type of
    training is really about learning by doing and is
    directly relevant to the type of work the new
    employee will be required to perform on a
    day-to-day basis.

    3. Off-the-job Training
    This is teaching the employee the knowledge,
    skills and attitude needed to do the job well,
    away from the normal working situation.
    This type of external training involves staff
    being sent to outside agencies who offer
    specialist training, e.g. Conferences, or
    colleges and universities offering degrees,
    Masters degrees or similar postgraduate
    programmes.

    4. Development
    This is less job-specific than most training
    programmes. The aim is to improve a broad range of
    general skills and make the employee more suited to
    carrying out a whole range of jobs.
    Staff development days frequently focus on
    improving teamwork, leadership and communication
    skills.

    Benefits of Training & Development


    Increased competence and productivity
    Providing staff with the most up-to-date skills will
    enable them to perform their jobs with greater
    competence and productivity.
    They will make fewer mistakes & make better
    quality products

    Benefits of Training & Development


    Adapting to change
    Good training and development gives workers a
    variety of skills and makes them more flexible.
    Companies which fail to provide continuous
    training will find it difficult to stay ahead of the
    competition.

    Benefits of Training & Development


    Improved morale/motivation
    New skills and knowledge can help reduce
    boredom and demonstrates to the employee that
    they are valuable enough for the employer to
    invest in them and their development.

    Benefits of Training & Development


    Less conflict
    Good training & development means that workers
    do their jobs well. This leads to less conflict
    between managers and employees over
    unsatisfactory work. Therefore, industrial relations
    improve.

    Benefits of Training & Development


    Cheaper than recruitment
    Training can be cost-effective, as it is cheaper to
    train existing employees than to recruit new
    employees with the skills you need.
