METHODS OF TRAINING
The various methods of training may be classified into the following categories:
On the job training
Vestibule training
Off the job training
On the job Training
On the job training is considered to be the most effective method of training the
operative personnel. Under this method, the employees are given training at the
work place by his immediate supervisor. In other words, the employees learn in
the actual work environment. It is based on the principle of ‘learning by doing’.
There are four methods of on the job training described below
Coaching
Under this method, the supervisor imparts job knowledge and skills to his
subordinate. The emphasis in coaching the subordinate is on learning by doing.
This method is very effective if the superior has sufficient time to provide
coaching to his subordinates.
Under Study
The superior gives training to a subordinate as his assistant. The subordinate
learns through experience and observation. It prepares the subordinate to
assume the responsibilities of the superior’s job in case the superior leaves the
organization.
Position Rotation:
The purpose of position rotation is to broaden the background of the trainee in
various positions. The trainee is periodically rotated from job to job instead of
sticking to one job so that he acquires a general background of different jobs.
However, rotation of an employee from one job to another should not be done
frequently. He should be allowed to stay on a job for sufficient period so that he
may acquire the full knowledge of the job.
Job rotation
Job rotation is used by many firms to develop all round employees. The
employees learn new skills and gain experience in handling different kinds of
jobs. They also come to know interrelationship between different jobs. It is also
used to place employees on the right jobs and prepare them to handle other jobs
in case of need.

the work place. Off the job methods are concerned with both knowledge and
skills in doing certain jobs. The employees are free of tension of work when
they are learning
There are several off the job methods of training as described below:
Special Lecture Cum discussion:
Training through special lectures is also known as “class-room training”. It is
more associated with imparting knowledge than skills. The special lectures may
be delivered by some executives of the organization or specialists from
vocational and professional institutes. Many firms also follow the practice of
inviting experts for special lectures for the staff on matters like health, safety,
productivity, quality, etc.
Conference Training
A conference is a group meeting conducted according to an organized plan in
which the members seek to develop knowledge and understanding by oral
participation. It is n effective training device for persons in the positions of both
conference member and conference leader. As a member, a person can learn
from other by comparing his opinions with those of others. He learns to respect
the viewpoints of others and also realizes that there is more than one workable
approach to any problem.
Case Study

this method, THE TRAINEE is given a problem or case which is more or less
related to the concepts and principles already taught. They analyze the problem
