houses are made? Broken in the long –run note by the markets or capital, patents, or
equipments, but by men”. Peter F. ducker says that, “man, of all the resources available to
name can grow and develop”. This gives geneses to the concept of HRM, the sub –system. HR
is the central sub-system of an organization. As the central sub- system, it controls the
functions of each sub –system and the whole organization.

ON-THE JOB TRIANING METHOD
This type of training, also know as objective instruction, training, is the most
commonly used method. Under this method, the individual is placed on a regular job and
taught the skills necessary to perform the job. The trainee learns under the supervision and
guidance of a qualified worker instructor. On-the-job training has advantage of giving first
hand knowledge and experience under actual working conditions. While the trainee learns how
to perform the job, he is also a regulars worker rendering the serve for which his paid. The
problem of transfer of the trainee is also minimized as the person learns on the job. The
emphasis is placed on rendering the services in the effective manner rather than learning. How
to perform the job on-the-job training method include job rotation, coaching, job instruction or
stop by step training g and committee assignments.
a. Job rotation: this trainee involves the movement of trainee form one job to
another. The trainee receives job knowledge and gains experience from his supervisor
or trainer in each of the different job assignments. Though this method of trainings
common in training managers for general management position, trainees can also be
rotated from hob to ob in workshop jobs. This method gives an opportunity to the
trainee to understand the problems of employees of other jobs and respect them.
b.Coaching: the trainee is placed under a particular supervisor functions as a
coach in training the individual. The supervisor provides the feedback to the trainee on
his performance and offers his some suggestions for improvement. Often the trainee
20 | P a g e
shares some of the duties and responsibilities of the coach and relieves his of his
burden. A limitation of this method of training is that the trainee may not have the
freedom or opportunity to ex press his own ideas.
b. Job instruction: this method is also known as step by step training. Under this
method, trainer explains the trainee the ways of doing the jobs, job knowledge and
skills allows hid to do the job. The trainee appraises the performance of the trainee,
provides feedback and corrects the trainee.
c. Committee assignments: under the committee assignment, group of trainees
are given an asked to solve an organizational problem. The trainee solves the problem
jointly. It develops teamwork.
OFF-THE JIB METHOD:
Under the method of training, the trainee is separated from the job situation and his
attention I focused upon learning the material related to his future job performance. Since the
trainee is not distracted by job requirements, he and place his entire concentration on learning
the job rather tan speeding in performing it.
There I sin opportunity for freedom expression for the trainee, the methods are as follows:
a. Vestibule training: in this method, actual work conditions are simulated in a
classroom. Materials, files and equipments those are used in actual job performance are
also used in training. This type of raining I commonly used for training personnel for
21 | P a g e
clears and semi skilled jobs. The duration of this training ranges from days to a few
weeks theory can be related to practice in this method.
b. Role playing: it I s defined as human interaction that involves realistic
behavior in imaginary situations. This method of training involves action, doing and
proactive. The participant play the role of certain characters, such as production
manager, mechanical engineer, maintenance engineer, superintendents, quality control
inspectors, fore men. Workers and the like. The method I mostly used to develop
interpersonal interactions and effectively ion.
c. Lecture method: the lecture is a traditional method and direct method of
instruction. The instruction organizes the material it to a group o trainees in the form of
a talk. To be effective the lecture must motivate and create interest among the trainee
an advantage of lecture method it is direct and can bi used for large group o trainees.
Thus cost and tin=me involved are reduced. The major limitation of the lecture method
is that it does not provide for transfer of training effectively.
d. Conference: it is a method obtaining the clerical, professional and supervisory
personnel. This method involves a group of people who pose ideas, examine a those
facts, ideas and data, test assumptions and draw concussions, all of which contribute to
the improvement of job performance.
e. Programmed instruction: in recent years this method has become popular. The
subject matter to be learnt is resents in a series of carefully planned sequential units.
22 | P a g e
These units ate arranged from simple to more complex levels of instructions. The
trainee goes though these units by answering questions or filing the blanks. This
method is expensive and consuming.
f. Evaluation of training programme: the specification of values forms a basis
of evaluation. The basis of evaluation and the mode of collection of information
necessity for evaluation should be determined at the planning stages the process of
training evaluation has been defined as “any attempt to obtain information on the
effects of training performance and to asses the also of training ting the light of than
information”. Evaluation is crucial in ascertaining whether or not the training program
is providing to be effective and its objectives ate being achieved. Evaluation leads
controlling and coercion the training programs. Humbling suggested five levels at
which evaluation of training cal take palaces. They are reactions, learning, job
behavior, organization, ultimate value.
g. Feedback: training evaluation information should be provided to the trainers
and instructors, trainee’s ads all other parties concerned for control, corrections and
improvements of trainees activities. Further the training evaluator should follow it up
to ensure implementation of the evaluation report at every state. Feedback info maroon
can be collected on the basis of questionnaire or through interview.
