Training means the process of increasing the knowledge and skills of an employee for doing a particular job. It seeks to improve the job performance and work behaviour of those trained.

Training programmes may be conducted to achieve the following objectives:

(i) To provide the necessary information to newly appointed employees so as to help them in getting adjusted to the jobs assigned to them.

(ii) To bring about improvement in the performance of work, so as to bridge the gap between existing level and desired level of performance.

(iii) To prepare employees for promotion to higher positions in the organisation.

(iv) To improve job satisfaction of employees and thereby minimise labour turnover and absenteeism.
