    PREFACE

    Practical training is an important part of theoretical studies. It covers all that which

    remains uncovered in the classroom. It offers all that which remains an invaluable

    treasure of experience. It offers an exposure to practical of management of business

    organization.

    As we know well that practical training plays an important role in future building of an

    individual. One can easily overcome the fear from that life in which he has to join as a

    member after sometime.

    Just theoretical knowledge is not sufficient for the success of an individual. So, one

    should have practical knowledge.

    I have been given an opportunity to do practical training in SRSS. availed of this

    opportunity in a very satisfactory manner and I think it will be much beneficial for me in

    future building.

    The research and methodology includes the research procedure, research design, sample

    design, data collection and finally limitations of study. The methods used for conducting

    survey are by preparing a structured questionnaire and then taking the views of respective

    respondents.

    In last the findings and suggestions, which came out after going through the whole survey

    of the organization, are mentioned.

    INTRODUCTION

    MEANING OF TRAINING

    Training is the act of increasing the skills of employees for doing a particular job. Training is the process of learning a sequence of programmed behavior. When the problems of supervision increased, the steps were taken to train

    supervisors for better supervision.

    To survive and flourish in the present day corporate-jungle, companies shouldinvest time and money in upgrading the knowledge and skills of their employees

    constantly.

    Training, bridges the gap between the job requirement and employee present jobspecification.

    Training is equally necessary for old employees whenever new machines andequipment are introduced.

    IDENTIFICATION OF TRAINING NEED

    Training need identification is a tool utilized to identify what educational courses or

    activities should be provided to employees to improve their work productivity.

    Here the focus should be placed on needs as opposed to desires of the employees for a

    constructive outcome. Inorder to emphasize the importance of training need identification

    we can focus on the following areas: -

    To pinpoint if training will make a difference in productivity and the bottom line. To decide what specific training each employee needs and what will improve his

    or her job performance.

    To differentiate between the need for training and organizational issues and bringabout a match between individual aspirations and organizational goals.

    Identification of training needs (ITN), if done properly, provides the basis on which all

    other training activities can be considered. Also requiring careful thought and analysis, it

    is a process that needs to be carried out with sensitivity as people's learning is important

    to them, and the reputation of the organization is also at stake.

    Identification of training needs is important from both the organisational point of view as

    well as from an individual's point of view. From an organisation's point of view it is

    important because an organisation has objectives that it wants to achieve for the benefit

    of all stakeholders or members, including owners, employees, customers, suppliers, and

    neighbours. These objectives can be achieved only through harnessing the abilities of its

    people, releasing potential and maximising opportunities for development.

    Therefore people must know what they need to learn in order to achieve organisational

    goals. Similarly if seen from an individual's point of view, people have aspirations, they

    want to develop and in order to learn and use new abilities, people need appropriate

    opportunities, resources, and conditions. Therefore, to meet people's aspirations, the

    organization must provide effective and attractive learning resources and conditions. And

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    11/51

    it is also important to see that there is a suitable match between achieving organizational

    goals and providing attractive learning opportunities.

    Training is needed to serve the following purposes:

    Newly recruited employees require training so as to perform their taskseffectively. Instruction, guidance, coaching help them to handle jobs competently,

    without any wastage.

    Training is necessary to prepare existing employees for higher-level jobs(promotion).

    Existing employees require refresher training so as to keep abreast of the latestdevelopments in job operations. In the face of rapid technological changes, this is

    an absolute necessity.

    Training is necessary when a person moves from one job to another (transfer).After training, the' employee can change jobs quickly, improve his performance

    levels and achieve career goals comfortably

    Training is necessary to make employees mobile and versatile. They can beplaced on various jobs depending on organizational needs.

    Training is needed to bridge the gap between what the employee has and what thejob demands.

    Training is needed to make employees more productive and useful in the long-run.

    Training is needed for employees to gain acceptance from peers (learning a job quickly

    and being able to pull their own weight is one of the best ways for them to gain

    acceptance).

    BENEFITS OF TRAINING

    Training offers innumerable benefits to both employees and employers. It makes the

    employee more productive and more useful to an organization. The importance oftraining can be studied under the following heads:

    BENEFITS TO BUSINESS BENEFITS TO EMPLOYEE

    BENEFITS TO BUSINESS

    Trained workers can work more efficiently. They use machines, tools, andmaterials in a proper way. Wastage is thus eliminated to a large extent.

    There will be fewer accidents. Training improves the knowledge of employeesregarding the use of machines and equipment. Hence, trained workers need not be

    put under close supervision, as they know how to handle operations properly.

    Trained workers can show superior performance. They can turn out betterperformance. They can turn out better quality goods by putting the materials, tools

    and equipment to good use.

    Training makes employees more loyal to an organization. They will be lessinclined to leave the unit where there are growth opportunities.

    A manager can make use of training to manage in a better way.

    Training helps to reduce the leaarning time to reach the acceptable level ofperformance in an organisation.

    Aids in handling conflicts, thereby helping to prevent stress and tension. Organisation gets more effective decision making and problem solving skills. Helps keep cost down in many areas for example production, personnel,

    administration etc.

    Reduces outside consulting costs by utilising competent internal consultation. Creates an appropriate climate for growth, communication.

    Employees can avoid mistakes, accidents on the job. They can handle jobs withconfidence. They will be more satisfied on their jobs. Their morale would be high.

    Thus, training can contribute to higher production, fewer mistakes, greater jobsatisfaction and lower labour turnover.

    It can enable employees to cope with organizational, social and technologicalchange. Effective training is an invaluable investment in the human resources of

    an organization

    The morale of employees is increased.if they are given proper training. If the employees are given adequate training, the need of supervision will be

    lessened.

    Helps eliminate fear in attempting tasks. Provides information for improving leadership, knowledge, communication skills

    TRAINING PROCESS

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    16/51

    1. IDENTIFICATION OF TRAINING NEEDA training programme should be established only when it is felt it would assist in the

    solution of specific operational problems.

    Identification of training involves three types of analysis which are as follow:

    ORGANISATIONAL ANALYSIS OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS MAN ANALYSIS

    ORGANISATIONAL ANALYSIS:It is a systematic study of the organisation in terms of its objectives, its resources,

    resource aalocation and utilisation, growth potential and its environment, its

    purpose is to determine where training emphasis should be placed in the

    organisation for increasing organisational effectiveness.

    OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS:It is a systematic analysis of job to identify job contents, knowledge, skills and

    apptitudes required to perform the job.

    MANPOWER ANALYSIS:It reviews the knowledge, attitudes, skill of the incumbent in each position and

    determines what knowledge,attitude he must acquire.

    2. OBJECTIVES OR GOALS TRAININGOnce it has been determined that training goals must established. The overall aim of any

    training programmers is to increased organizational effectiveness. Specific objectives

    such as increased productivity, improved quality, better human resource planning, better

    health and safety etc.

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    17/51

    3. ORGANISATION OF TRAINING PROGRAMMEEvery training programme includes trainees, trainers, and a training period and training

    material in this is necessary to decide that who will be the trainer and who will be the

    trainee.

    4. TRAINING METHODS AND MATERIALThere are several on-the job and off-the-job methods the choice of any method to train

    the employee to be trained. Similarly training material includes study notes, case studies,

    pamphlets, charts, manuals, movies slides, etc. on the job methods includes coaching,

    mentoring, job rotation, job instruction and the oee the job methods include lecture,

    conference case studies and role playing.

    5. PERFORMANCE TRY OUTThe trainee is asked to do the job several times slowly his mistake are corrected and if it

    is necessary, the complicated steps are explained. He is put on his own & the training is

    over.

    6. FOLLOW UPThe following criteria may be used to measure the effectiveness of training:

    Reaction: Trainee reaction to the objectives, content and methods of training are good

    indicators of effectiveness.

    Learning: the extent to which the trainee have gained the desired knowledge and skills

    during the training period is useful basis of evaluating training effectiveness.

    Behaviour: improvement in the job behavior of the trainees reflects the manner and

    extent to which the learning has been put to practice.

    Results: productivity improvement, quality improvement, cost reducing, accident

    reducing, reduction in labour turnover and absenteeism are outcome of training which

    can be used for evaluating effectiveness.

    18/51

    METHODS OF TRAINING

    Training methods are usually classified by the location of instruction. On the job trainingis provided when the workers are taught relevant knowledge, skills and abilities at the

    actual workplace; off-the-job training, on the other hand, requires that trainees learn at a

    location other than the real work spot. Some of the widely used training methods are

    listed below.

    ON THE JOB METHODS:

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    19/51

    1. Job Instruction Training (JlT)

    The JIT method (developed during World War II) is a four-step instructional process

    involving preparation, presentation, performance try out and follow up. It is used

    primarily to teach workers how to do their current jobs. A trainer, supervisor or co-

    worker acts as the coach. The four steps followed in the JIT methods are:

    1. The trainee receives an overview of the job, its purpose and its desired outcomes,with a clear focus on the relevance of training.

    2. The trainer demonstrates the job in order to give the employee a model to copy.The trainer shows a right way to handle the job.

    3. Next, the employee is permitted to copy the trainer's way. Demonstrations by thetrainer and practice by the trainee are repeated until the trainee masters the right

    way to handle the job.

    4. Finally, the employee does the job independently without supervision.

    Merits:

    Trainee learns fast through practice and observation. It is economical as it does not require any special settings. Also, mistakes can be

    corrected immediately.

    The trainee gains confidence quickly as he does the work himself in actual settingwith help from supervisor.

    It is most suitable for unskilled and semi-skilled jobs where the job operations aresimple; easy to explain and demonstrate within a short span of time.

    Demerits:

    The trainee should be as good as the trainer if the trainer is not good, transferenceof knowledge and skills will be poor.

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    20/51

    While learning, trainee may damage equipment, waste materials, cause accidentsfrequently,

    Experienced workers cannot use the machinery while it is being used for training.

    2. Coaching:

    Coaching is a kind of daily training and feedback given to employees by immediate

    supervisors. It involves a continuous process of learning by doing. It may be defined as

    an informal, unplanned training and development activity provided by supervisors and

    peers. In coaching, the supervisor explains things and answers questions; he throws light

    on why things are done the way they are; he offers a model for trainees to copy; conducts

    lot of decision making meetings with trainees; procedures are agreed upon and the trainee

    is given enough authority to make divisions and even commit mistakes. Of course,

    coaching can be a taxing job in that the coach may not possess requisite skills to guide

    the learner in a systematic way. Sometimes, doing a full day's work may be more

    important than putting the learner on track.

    When to use coaching usefully?Coaching could be put to good use when:

    an employee demonstrates a new competency an employee expresses interest in a different job within the organisation an employee seeks feedback an employee is expressing low morale, violating company policies or practices or

    having performance problems

    an employee needs help with a new skill following a formal training programme.Effective working, obviously, requires patience and communication skills. It involves:

    explaining appropriate ways of doing things making clear why actions were taken stating observations accurately offering possible alternatives / suggestions following up

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    21/51

    3. Mentoring :

    Mentoring is a relationship in which a senior manager in an organisation assumes the

    responsibility for grooming a junior person. Technical, interpersonal and political skills

    are generally conveyed in such a relationship from the more experienced person. A

    mentor is a teacher, spouse, counsellor, developerr of skills and intellect, host, guide,

    exemplar, and most importantly, supporter and facilitator in the realisation of the vision

    the young person (protege) has about the kind of 1ife he wants as an adult.

    The main objective is to he1p an employee attain psychological maturity and

    effectiveness and get integrated with the organisation. In a work situation, such

    mentoring can take place at both formal and informal levels, depending on the prevailing

    work culture and the commitment from the top management. Formal mentoring can be

    very fruitful, if management invests time and money in such relationship building

    exercises.

    Career functions:Career functions are those aspects of the relationship thatenhance career advancement. These include:

    1. Sponsorship:Where mentors actively nominate a junior person (called'mentee') for promotions or desirable positions.

    2. Exposure and visibility:Where mentors offer opportunities for mentees tointeract with senior executives, demonstrate their abilities and exploit their

    potential.

    3. Coaching:Mentors help mentees to analyse how they are doing their workand to define their aspirations. Here mentors offer practical advice on how to

    accomplish objectives and gain recognition from others.

    4. Protection:Mentors shield the junior person from harmful situations/seniors.5. Challenging assignments: Mentors help mentees develop necessary

    competencies through challenging job assignments and appropriate feedback.

    Mentors create opportunities clients to prove their worth to demonstrate

    clearly what they have to offer.

    6. Role modeling:Mentors offer mentees a pattern of values and behaviours toimitate.

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    22/51

    7. Acceptance and confirmation: mentors offer support, guidance andencouragement to mentees so that they can solve the problems independently

    and gain confidence in course of time. Mentors also help people to learn

    about the organisation's culture and understand why things are done in certain

    ways.

    8. Counseling:Mentors help mentees work out their personal problems, learnabout what to do and what not to do, offer advice on what works and what

    doesn't, and do everything to demonstrate improved performance and prepare

    themselves for greater responsibility.

    9. Friendship:Mentors offer practical help and support to mentees so that theycan indulge in mutually satisfying social interactions (with peers,

    subordinates, bosses and customers)

    Psychological functions:Psychological functions are those aspects that enhance thementees sense of competence, and identify effectiveness in a professional role. These

    include:

    Mentoring in India is based on the time-honoured guru-shishya relationship where the

    guru would do everything to develop the personality of the shishya, offering emotional

    support, and guidance. Companies like PTL, reliance, Coca-Cola India have used

    mentoring systems to good effect in recent times (Economic Times, 25 Oct., 2002).

    Organizations like General Electric, Intel, Proctor & Gamble have given a lot of

    importance to mentoring programmes, going even gone to the extent of penalising senior

    managers if they fail to develop leadership skills among subordinates. Of course,

    mentoring is not without its problems. Mentors who are dissatisfied with their jobs and

    though who teach or narrow or distorted view of events may not help a protege's

    development. Not all mentors are well prepared to transfer their skills and wisdom to

    their junior colleagues. When young people are bombarded with conflicting viewpoints -

    about how things should go - from a series of advisors, they may find it difficult to get

    ahead with confidence. Mentoring can succeed if (i) there is genuine support and

    commitment from top management (ii) mentors take up their job seriously and transfer

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    23/51

    ideas, skills and experiences in a systematic way and (iii) mentees believe in the whole

    process and carry out things in an appropriate manner.

    4. Job Rotation :This kind of training involves the movement of trainee from one job to another. This

    helps him to have a general understanding of how the organisation functions. The

    purpose of job rotation is to provide trainees with a larger organisational perspective and

    a greater understanding of different functional areas as well as a better sense of their own

    career objectives and interests. Apart from relieving boredom, job rotation allows trainees

    to build rapport with a wide range of individuals within the organization, facilitating

    future cooperation among departments. The cross-trained personnel offer a great amount

    of flexibility for organizations when transfers, promotions or replacements become

    inevitable.

    Job rotation may pose several problems, especially when the trainees are rolled on

    various jobs at frequent intervals. In such a case, trainees do not usually stay long enough

    in any single phase of the operation to develop a high degree of expertise. For slow

    learners, there is little room to integrate resources properly. Trainees can become

    confused when they are exposed to rotating managers, with contrasting styles of

    operation. Today's manager's commands may be replaced by another set from another

    manager! Further, job rotation can be quite expensive. A substantial amount of

    managerial time is lost when trainees change positions, because they must be acquainted

    with different people and techniques in each department. Development costs can go up

    and productivity is reduced by moving a trainee into a new position when his efficiency

    levels begin to improve at the prior job. Inexperienced trainees may fail to handle new

    tasks in an efficient way. Intelligent and aggressive trainees, on the offer hand, may find

    the system to be thoroughly boring as they continue to perform more or less similar jobs

    without any stretch, pull and challenge. To get the best results out of the system, it should

    be tailored to the needs, interests and capabilities of the individual trainee, and not be a

    standard sequence that all trainees undergo.

    5Apprenticeship Training

    Most craft workers such as plumbers and carpenters are trained through formal

    apprenticeship programmes. Apprentices are trainees who spend a prescribed amount of

    time working with an experienced guide, coach or trainer. Assistantships and internships

    are similar to apprenticeships because they also demand high levels of participation from

    the trainee. An internship is a kind of on-the-job training that usually combines job

    training with classroom instruction in trade schools, colleges or universities. Coaching, as

    explained above, is similar to apprenticeship because the coach attempts to provide a

    model for the trainee to copy. One important disadvantage of the apprenticeship methods

    is the uniform period of training offered to trainees. People have different abilities and

    learn at varied rates. Those who learn fast may quit the programme in frustration. Slow

    learners may need additional training time. It is also likely that in these days of rapid

    changes in technology, old skills may get outdated quickly. Trainees who spend years

    learning specific skills may find, upon completion of their programmes, that the job skills

    they acquired are no longer appropriate.

    6 Committee Assignments

    In this method, trainees are asked to solve an actual organizational problem. The trainees

    have to work together and offer solution to the problem. Assigning talented employees to

    important committees can give these employees a broadening experience and can help

    them to understand the personalities, issues and processes governing the organization. It

    helps them to develop team spirit and work unitedly toward common goals. However,

    managers should very well understand that committee assignments could become

    notorious time wasting activities. The above on-the-job methods are cost effective.

    Workers actually produce while they learn. Since immediat.e feedback is available, they

    motivate trainees to observe and learn the right way of doing things. Very few problemsarise in the case of transfer of training because the employees learn in the actual work

    environment where the skills that are learnt are actually used. On-the-job methods may

    cause disruptions in production schedules. Experienced workers cannot use the facilities

    that are used in training. Poor learners may damage machinery and equipment. Finally, if

    the trainer does not possess teaching skills, there is very little benefit to the trainee.

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    25/51

    OFF-THE-JOB METHODS

    Under this method of training, the trainee is separated from the job situation and his

    attention is focused upon learning the material related to his future job performance.

    Since the trainee is not distracted by job requirements, he can focus his entire

    concentration on learning the job rather than spending his time in performing it. There is

    an opportunity for freedom of expression for the trainees. Off-the-job training methods

    are as follows:

    1. Vestibule training:

    In this method, actual work conditions are simulated in a classroom. Material,

    files and equipment - those that are used in actual job performance are also usedin the training. This type of training is commonly used for training personnel for

    clerical and semi skilled jobs. The duration of this training ranges from a few days

    to a few weeks. Theory can be related to practice in this method.

    2. Role playing:

    It is defined as a method of human interaction that involves realistic behaviour in

    imaginary situations. This method of training involves action, doing and practice.

    The participants play the role of certain characters, such as the productionmanager, mechanical engineer, superintendents, maintenance engineers, quality

    control inspectors, foreman, workers and the like. This method is mostly used for

    developing interpersonal interactions and relations.

    3. Lecture method:

    The lecture is a traditional and direct method of instruction. The instructor

    organizes the material and gives it to a group of trainees in the form of a talk. To

    be effective, the lecture must motivate and create interest among the trainees. An

    advantage of lecture method is that it is direct and can be used for a large group of

    trainees. Thus, costs and time involved are reduced. The major limitation of the

    lecture method is that it does not provide for transfer of training effectively.

    4. Conference/discussion approach:

    In this method, the trainer delivers a lecture and involves the trainee in a discussion

    so that his doubts about the job get clarified. When big organizations use this

    method, the trainer uses audio-visual aids such as black boards, mockups and slides;

    in some cases the lectures are videotaped or audio taped. Even the trainee's

    presentation can be taped for self confrontation and self-assessment.

    5. Programmed instruction:

    This method has become popular in recent years. The subject matter to be learned is

    presented in a series of carefully planned sequential units. These units are arranged from

    simple to more complex levels of instruction. The trainee goes through these units by

    answering questions or filling the blanks. This method is, thus, expensive and time-

    consuming.

    RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

    MEANING OF RESEARCH:-Research as the manipulation of things, concepts of symbols for the purpose of

    generalizing to extend, correct or verify knowledge, whether that knowledge aids in

    construction of theory or in the practice of an art.

    The Research Methodology followed for further work can be primarily classified into

    two stages namely Exploratory and Descriptive. The stepwise details of the research

    are as follows:

    STAGE - I

    Exploratory Study:

    Since we always lack a clear idea of the problems one will meet during the study,

    carrying out an exploratory study is particularly useful. It helped develop my concepts

    more clearly, establish priorities and in improve the final research design.Exploratory

    study will be carried out by conducting:

    Secondary data analysis which included studying the website (www.isgec.com) of the

    company and also going through the various articles published in different sources

    (magazines, books, internet, newspapers) on Small and Medium Scale Enterprises and

    Training.

    Experience surveys also conduct with Assistant-Manager Human Resources and the

    General Manager and Personnel Officer to gain knowledge about the process of

    identification of training need followed in the organization.

    29/51

    StageII

    Descriptive Study:

    After carrying out initial Exploratory studies to bring clarity on the subject under study,

    Descriptive study will be carried out to know the actual method to identify the training

    need being followed at ruchira paper ltd. The knowledge of actual training is needed to

    document the process and suggest improvements in the current system to make it more

    effective. The tools used to carry out Descriptive study included both monitoring and

    Interrogation.

    RESEARCH DESIGN

    SAMPLING DESIGN:

    A sample design is a definite plan for obtaining a sample from a given population.

    There are many sample design from which a researcher can choose. Researchers

    must prepare /select a sample design which should be reliable and appropriate for

    their research only.

    Sample Size:This refers to the organizations surveyed. Although large samples are more reliable

    but due to shortage of time and money this organization has been selected.

    FINDINGS

    Objective:- To identify the need of training practices in the company.

    The training provided to employees help them in their overall development. It helps in promoting efficient working for the organization and employees.

    Objective:- To analyze the existing training practices and their effectiveness.

    More methods used for making the training sessions exciting. Some of the respondents suggested that the time period of the training

    programmes were less and thus need to be increased.

    Objective:- To take feedback and analyze the level of satisfaction amongst the

    employees.

    Maximum employees were satisfied with the training programme. Some respondents also recommended that the number of training programmes

    be increased.

  • 7/27/2019 Prolect on Report(s.r.solar Systems) Ajay2

    45/51

    RECOMMENDATION

    Practical examples should be used to make things easy to understand duringthe training sessions.

    Better technological aids and methods should be used to make the trainingsessions exciting.

    The period of the training sessions should be augmented. The organization should also arrange part time training programmes in the office

    premises for short durations, spanning over a few days, in order to avoid any

    interruption in the routine work.

    LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

    The size of the sample is very small due to shortage of time and resources. Respondent may be baised in favour of management. Due to pressure of management, respondent were reluctant in communicating. Difficulty was faced in getting the responses to various questions because

    respondents could not devote enough time to me.

    Moreover a period of 45 days of training is too short to study the vast concept ofH.R.M

    In spite of the hurdles this period was a very good time of learning experience and

    exposure to industry atmosphere and culture.

    47/51

    CONCLUSION

    Training is an attempt to improve current or future employee performance byincreasing an employee ability to perform through learning & increasing his orher skills & knowledge.

    Training need identification is a tool utilized to identify what courses or activitiesshould be provided to employee to improve their work productivity.

    The training programmes were adequately designed to cater to the developmentalneeds of the respondents

    Training is closely related with education and development but needs to bedifferentiated from these term.

    The training aids used were helpful in improving the overall effectiveness of thetraining programmes
