CHAPTER 12 PERSONNEL TRAINING

Personnel Training is the process of orienting and educating employees in the workplace.  They bring with them their own assortment of previously learned behaviors, including physical skills, acquired knowledge, language skills, temperament and interest, motivation, attitudes, habits and other types of behavior.  The additional learning that people acquire after they become employees or undertake a new type of work can be taken place in either of two ways; (1) through everyday work experience or (2) as the consequence of systematic training.  The training of personnel may be directed toward: (1) development of actual job knowledge and skills; (2) the transmission of information, as in orientation training; of (3) the modification of attitudes.  For whatever its purposes, a training program should be established on sound principles and practices that helps human learning.
