PREFACE
In modern Industrial System, production is the result of the joint effort of all the factors of production, which are land, labour, capital, organization and entrepreneur. Out of all these, the labour factor is most active. It controls and coordinates the other factors in order to get the maximum output at minimum cost. The human resource is the only resource, which produces an output greater than its input, it is the only resource, which has feelings and improves its skills and efficiency through experience and with the passage of time. Thus, it is very necessary to seek the cooperation of human force, to get the maximum benefits out of the efforts it puts in. In order to achieve the whole hearted cooperation of the3 employees, it is important to raise their morale and make then self sufficient, effective and efficient. So, the organization needs to provide its workers with basic and extra knowledge to improve their skills while, side by side, improving their personalities. For this, the right employees have to be imparted with the right Training and Development programme at the right time. As a part of curriculum of MBA, I was assigned to study & prepare a report on Liberty Shoes Limited, Karnal, in context with training & development while undergoing practical training in the factory. During the training, I understood how LIBERTY SHOES LTD, KARNAL increases the efficiency & effectiveness of its workers by imparting training to them and developing them in all respects.

LITRATURE REVIEW
9
A review of literature on evaluation of training was conducted to identify methods of effectiveness evaluation for training programs. Five definitions of evaluation were identified in the literature. Kirkpatrick, 1971 Kirkpatricks first level of measurement, reaction, is defined as how well the trainees liked the training program. The second measurement level, learning, is designated as the determination of what knowledge, attitudes, and skills were learned in the training. The third measurement level is defined as behavior. Behavior outlines a relationship of learning (the previous measurement le vel) to the actualization of doing. Kirkpatrick recognized a big difference between knowing principles and techniques and using those principles and techniques on the job. The fourth measurement level, results, is the expected outcomes of most educational training programs such as reduced costs, reduced turnover and absenteeism, reduced grievances, improved profits or morale, and increased quality and quantity of production. Paquet,Kasl, Weinstein, & Waite, 1987 One study was found by a major corporation that measured change in productivity and ROI of a training program. CIGNA Corporations corporate management development and training department, which provides training for employees of CIGNA Corporations operating subsidiaries, initiated an evaluation program to prove management training made a business contribution. The research question posed was, Does management

workplace? The team conducting the research identified that data collection needed to

10
be built into the training program for optimal data gathering. If managers could use the evaluation data for their own benefit as part of their training, they would be more likely to cooperate.
Paulet & Moult, 1987 British Airways assessed the effectiveness of the Managing People First (MPF) training by measuring the value shift, commitment, and empowerment of the trainees. An in-depth interview was used to measure the action potential (energy generated in the participants by the course) and level of action as a result of the course. A want level was used to measure the action potential and a do level for the action. Each measurement was assigned a value of high, medium, or low. However, high, medium, and low were not defined. The study showed that 27% of all participants (high want level and high do level) were committed to MPF values and pursued the programs aims/philosophy. Nearly 30% of participants were fully committed to the aims/philosophy of MPF although they did not fully convert commitment to action (high want level and medium and low do level). Approximately one-third of the participants (29%) moderately 11converted enthusiasm into committed action (medium and low want level and medium and low do level). But 13% remained truly uncommitted (low want level and low do level).Behavioral changes (level three of the Kirkpatrick Model) were measured following low impact Outdoor-Based Experiential Training with the goal of team building Alliger and Horowitz (1989) Numerous studies reported use of components of the Kirkpatrick Model; however, no study was found that applied all four levels of the model. Although level one is the least complex of the measures of evaluation developed by Kirkpatrick, no studies were found that reported use of level one as a sole measure of training. One application of the second level of evaluation, knowledge, was reported by. In this study the IBM Corporation incorporated knowledge tests into internally developed training. To ensure the best design, IBM conducted a study to identify the optimal test for internally
11

developed courses. Four separate tests composed of 25 questions each were developed based on ten key learning components. Four scoring methods were evaluated including one that used a unique measure of confidence. The confidence measurement assessed how confident the trainee was with answers given. Tests were administered both before and after trainingThe development of the confidence index was the most valuable aspect of the study. Alliger and Horowitz stated that behavior in the workplace was not only a function of knowledge, but also of how certain the employee was of that knowledge. Two studies were found that measured job application and changes in behavior (level three of the Kirkpatrick Model). 13

Training is basically the act of imparting knowledge and upgrading the skills.
It is basically the technique to improve and develop the skills that may be already been acquired or else to impart new knowledge or to make aware about new developments and technologies. Training is also even given for personal development of the employees and for their growth and advancement. A persons performance is improved by showing him/her how to master a new or established technology. The technology may be a piece of heavy machinery, a computer, a procedure for creating a product, or a method of providing a service.
Earlier it was stated that there are four inputs to a system: people, material, technology and time. Training is mainly concerned with the meeting of two of these inputs-people and technologies i.e. having people learn to master a given technology. In other words training improves, changes, and moulds the employees knowledge, skill, behavior, aptitude and attitude towards the requirements of the job and organization. Thus training is the acquisition of technology, which permits employees to perform their present job to standards. It improves human performance on the job the employee is presently doing or is being hired to do. Also, it is given when new technology is introduced into the workplace.
The survival of the organization requires development throughout the ranks in order to survive, while training makes the organization more effective and efficient in its dayto-day operations. In this way, Development is a related process; it covers not only those activities, which improve job performance, but also those activities, which bring about growth of the personality, helps individuals in the progress towards maturity.
Training 13is one of the most important functions of the human resource, which is
taken up in every organization to retain good and competent workforce as its main purpose is to: Improve the efficiency of the employees. To motivate the employees. To make them aware about new developments. For effective utilization of resources. For their personal growth and career development. So, its the process of enhancing the knowledge and skills acquired by an employee to do a particular job.

I. II.
ON THE JOB TRAINING These basically include the program, which are being conducted in the workplace itself. So skills and knowledge are imparted through practical exposure to work that basically include induction training, job rotations, apprenticeship training, internship training etc. These programs are taken up to upgrade the skills and techniques, which are used by the person to do the immediate job in which he is engaged. OFF THE JOB TRAINING These programs are conducted other than at the actual workplace. These include theoretical concepts and demonstrations that follow the policy of classroom teaching to impart knowledge on the basic concepts. It basically includes lectures, seminars, conferences, case studies, role-playing and other management games. These programs are taken up for the growth and development of the personnels where artificial environment is created to learn the basic concepts first and then to implement them in practical work.
Typical Reasons for Employee Training and Development15: Training and development can be initiated for a variety of reasons for an employee or

All the training and development activities are look after by Mr. parveen sharma , Manager (HR).

TRAINING EFFECTIVENESS29
What's Training Good for Anyway? There are good reasons to mandate training and development in your organisation and there are bad reasons for mandating training. There are also good reasons for NOT training, in some circumstances, and bad reasons to refuse. Knowing what training can and cannot accomplish enables you to make the right decisions at the right time, ensuring that your limited training dollars are used effectively.
What Training Can Do? Training can accomplish many things. It can help people learn the new skills that are required to meet new expectations, both formal and informal. For example, a support staff person may have been hired originally for his/ her ability to type, to answer the phone and file. But now, with increased workloads, we want that person to be able to do much more perhaps to solve client problems, to use desktop publishing processes, to handle more of the day to day issues, so we can use our time more effectively. Training can help people accept the challenge of their evolving jobs. Training can also help to: Build a common understanding of the organizations purpose. Show management's commitment and loyalty to employees. Development people so they can increase their responsibilities and contribute to the organisation in new ways.
29
31
32
What Training Cannot Do?30 Training on its own, cannot change ineffective employees into effective ones. Training is unlikely to address ALL the causes of poor performance. Limited training also will not turn a poor supervisor or manager into an effective one, unless it is coupled with ongoing coaching. Training will not erase problems that occur as a result of poor structuring of work, mismatching of work with the person,
