A STUDY ON TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
GENERAL INTRODUCTION:
Throughout history, cementing materials have played a vital role. They were used widely in the ancient world. The Egyptians used claimed gypsum as cement. The Greeks and Romans used lime made by heating limestone and added sand to make mortar, with coarser stones for concrete. The Romans found that cement could be made which set under water and this was used for the construction of horbours. The cement was made by adding crushed volcanic ash to lime and was later calledpozzolanic cement, named after the village of Pozzuoli near Vesuvius. In place such as Britain, where volcanic ash was scarce, crushed brick or tile was used instead. The Romans were therefore probably nthe first two manipulate the properties of cementations materials for special applications and situations Organizations are made up of people of functions through people without people organization cannot exist an organization means five important Ms namely money, material, men, machine, and market.
It is an effective combination of these factors that the success are failure of an organization depends of all the factors the management of men is very important & in their challenging job. It is because of the dynamic nature of the people, people close not mean an assembly or a group people which are now technically called human resources represent the feeling of various peoples. Therefore human resources mean the
knowledge, skill, creative abilities, talent and attitude obtained in the population there for there is a need for tactful handling of the people. This is known has human resource management.

H R M is one of the functional areas of management, of course, a relatively recent concept of the study as compared to the study of management. The evolution and development of H R M as inter relationship with that of management. Evidences are available to cite that the history of management of people in the organization as been quite old. To quote, the concept of minimum wages rate and incentive plans where very much included in the Babylonian code of Hammurabi around 1800 b.c even in India, Koutilays arthashasthras says that there existed a sound base per systematic management of people as early as in 320 b.c however, in India, the origin of H R M is traced to the beginning of the 20th century with labour welfare in factories since 1920s since then there has been continues changes / developments in the concept of H R M in India. For the convince of our understanding, an attempt as been made in the following sections to chronicle and development of the subject H R M since the 1920s.
INTRODUCTION OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

Some 50 years back the rate of the TRAINER was relatively simple the more common terms in use were INSTRUCTOR Or TEACHER with all the employees on techniques that these terms suggest. In Britain there has been shortage of skilled workers since world war II and many companies shifted their responsibilities for training employees. contributed towards the slow rate of economic explosion. This situation has
The Government attempt to deal with the problems of skill shortage because companies were suffering from lack of training and development programmed keeping this in mind, the INDUSTRIAL TRAINING ACT, 1964 was introduced to supplement the good work of the INDUSTRIAL TRAINING FEDERATION which was established in 1958 by the trade union Congress, gave root to establish training boards for each industry.
A STUDY ON TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT During 1960 and 1970 there was a great programs in training techniques and improved method has introduced and also existing technique use in training method was modified.
During 1987 the Government announced new proposal and decisions affecting the role and composition. Their roles was to improve competitiveness and support the growth of employment and job creation by fostering the development of a better and were adaptable work force. The training and development activity has become an essential in the present fast changing technology and high competitive environment providing in the industry and other section training also helps to increase the abilities, potentialities of employees and the production in an organization and also to get higher profits. Every organization needs to have well trained and experienced people to perform the activities that have to be done. If the current or potential job occupant can meet this requirement, training is not important, but when that is not a case, it is necessary to raise the skill levels and increase the versatility and adoptability of employees. Inadequate job performance or declines in productivity change resulting out of job redesigning or a technological breakthrough require some type training and development. As the job become more complex, the importance of employees development and increases. In a rapidly changing technology employee training and development are those only in activity that in desirable but an activity that organization committee resources, if it is so maintain a viable and knowledgeable words farce.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT INTRODUCTION

Every organization needs to have will trained and experienced people to perform the activities that have to be done. If the current or potential job
occupant can meet this requirement, training is not imparting. But when this is not the case, it is necessary to raise the skill levels and increase the versatility and adoptability of employees. Inadequate job performance or declines in productivity or changes resulting out of job redesigning or a technological breakthrough require some type of training and development efforts. As the jobs becomes more complex, the importance of employee development also increases. In a rapidly changing society, employee training and development or not only an activity that is desirable but also an activity that an organization most commit resources or to it is to maintain a viable and knowledgeable workforce. Training, Education, development are three terms frequently used. On the face of it, there might not appear any difference between them, but when a deep thought is given, there appear some difference between them. In all training there is some education and in all education there is some training and the two process cannot be separated from development. In the field of human resource management, training and development is the field which is concerned with organizational activity aimed at bettering the performance of individuals and groups in organizational settings. It has been known by several names, including human resource development, and learning and development. Harrison observes that the name was endlessly debated by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development during its review of professional standards in 1999/2000. "Employee Development" was seen as too evocative of the master-slave relationship between employer and employee for those who refer to their employees as "partners" or "associates" to be comfortable with. "Human Resource Development" was rejected by academics, who objected to the idea that people were "resources" an idea that they felt to be demeaning to the

Eventually, the CIPD settled upon "Learning and Development", although that was itself not free from problems, "learning" being an overgeneral and ambiguous name. Moreover, the field is still widely known by the other names. Edwin flippo Training is the act of increasing the knowledge and skill of an employee for doing a particular job.
