about their work and the latest trends in their field outside the workplace (Fink, 2013).
The Off the job training methods are as follows -

2.1.4 Generating training plan for the employees


• Organizational Analysis - Organizational analysis aims to list short lists of training
priorities within the organization and the factors that may affect the organization. The study
shows the related type of learning environment required for training. Sisson and Ryan
(2017)
• Job Analysis - An objective assessment of the work, taking into account both a worker-

2.1.5 Necessity of training cycle for an organization


Determining training needs - Providing training that does not have clearly identified needs and
goals does not meet the needs of an individual or organization.
Design - The design step is to determine which type of training is the best option to achieve your
learning goals.
Develop a workout - Completion of the course. It is designed and the framework is established,
both materials and learning activities are created so that participants can understand and practice
new knowledge and skills within the workplace.
Training conviction - The phase is when the learner participates in the training or completes the
training course (online or self-study). A training program allows participants to actively participate
in the learning process and practice new skills and knowledge related to the job.

is important because without assessing the effectiveness of the training, we will not know if you
have the benefits and benefits you need for your training.

people, according to research. This is true for the presentation of learning material.

2.1.6 Learning and learning styles


Learning is "a process that leads to changes that result from experience, improving performance and
increasing the potential for future learning. (Garg et al., 2021)

Learning styles

• Activists - Are people who learn best by doing. They like to get their hands dirty and are
enthusiastic about being thrown in at the deep end and trying new things. They work on
and investigate problems in brainstorming sessions with others.
• Theorist - Are the people who learn best by understanding the theory behind why
something is the way it is. They need models, concepts, and facts to be able to learn
effectively.
• Pragmatist - Pragmatists learn best when they see how they can put what they have learned
into practice in the real world. They like to take in new ideas they have learned and try to
put them into practice right away. I would like to find a new way to put what I have learned
into practice.
• Reflectors - Reflectors are the ones who learn best when they can observe others and think
about what they have just observed. They avoid jumping straight and prefer to see first.
2.1.7 Learning Taxonomy

Bloom’s Taxonomy - A hierarchical categorization that promotes multiple learning skills based
on their difficulty levels
The categories are
• Create - Produce or investigate the work assigned
• Evaluate - Give justification or stand for the decision passed.
• Analyse - Relate or compare the shared ideas.
• Apply- Use the given information in the accomplishment of the new task.
• Understand- Classify, discuss and describe the ideas or concept particularly
• Remember- Recalling or replicating the basic concepts or ideas and facts related to
organization
Benefits: Allows instructors to evaluate the intellectual level at which each learner is willing to work.
(Wang et al., 2021).

2.1.8 Evaluation of learning and development strategies


The Kirkpatrick Model is probably the best-known model for analyzing and evaluating the results
of training and educational programs (Desilets, 2018). The four phages are
Level 1 – Reaction - Participants' answers to the training are measured by reaction.
Example: Done immediately after the training ends
Level 2- Learning - Examines if they fully comprehended the teaching
Example: For whatever group size, measuring and assessment are easy and simple.
Level 3 – Transfer - This level analyzes the contrasts within the participant’s behavior at work
after completion of the program
Example- Expedient examinations done immediately after the program are not getting to be strong
since individuals change completely in different ways at different times.
Level 4 - Results - Determines if the material had a positive impact on the business /
organization.
Example- Allowing enough time to measure / evaluate and produce the results

methods. Gives HR and business leaders valuable insight into their overall training programmes.

able communicate with senior manager
• Management by objective - Powerful and that must be done one step at a time. This
method creates a culture towards common goals and achieving the objectives. EX: Chef

performance against a preset set of behavior traits that are tied to a specific numeric or
rating on a scale of 1 to 5. EX: Guest giving BARS rating scale while checking out of the
hotel cleanliness.

2.2.4. The impact of Maslow's two factor theory on employee Performance


The biggest advantage of Maslow's Motivational Theory is that it is very easy to understand
because we all go through some level of the Denny's Pyramid in our lifetime and even the general
public understands this theory (Sosteric, 2018a). Association is possible. At work, his needs are
always limited to the bottom of the needs pyramid. That is, food, housing and clothing, but for
millions of business people, the pyramids are his number one priority (Bridgman et al., 2019).
