PREFACE
Partial knowledge is an important suffix to theoretical knowledge;
one cannot merely rely upon the theoretical knowledge. Classroom
make the fundamental concept clear, but practical survey in a firm
has significant role to play in a subject of management to develop
management skills, it is necessary that they combine their
classroom's learning with the knowledge of real business
environment.
I am extremely happy to place before the esteemed
teachers/management the report of the project entitled "Training
Evaluation (Training and Development)"
It has not only helped me to enhance my knowledge about various
fields of Human Resources & Company responsibilities towards their
welfare but also gave new dimension to my knowledge about
psychology & attitude of the Employees towards the work & their
duties.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
Each and every endeavour requires specific objective to be fulfilled.
In academics for knowledge the practical sector each and every
individual has to go for an intensive study in that particular sector.
Though it requires some specific knowledge but the quality to
manage the time to have the goal to be achieved, all the activities
should be as per the planned course of action and at last the
knowledge will come out from the effort done for the specified
period.

In academics to get a professional degree as per the course


curriculums each and every student has to undergo a summer
project for a period of 4 weeks in an organization As per the set
program of B.COM of DAV SCHOOLOF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT,
UTKAL UNIVERSITY, ODISHA. I went for my summer training program
at National Aluminium Company Ltd (NALCO) for the same starting
from 1st MAY TO 30TH JUNE.

The other objectives were:


-To examine the effect of training on workers performance in an
organisation.
- To assess how training enhances workers knowledge and skills to
enable them adapt to new technologies changes in the organisation
and the working environment
SYNOPSIS OF THE REPORT
TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT is a subsystem of an organisation It ensures
that randomness Is reduces and learning or behavioural change takes place in
structural format It is concerned with the structure and delivery of acquisition
of knowledge to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of organization
Therefore. training a a key to optimizing utilization of human. intellectual,
technological, and entrepreneurial skills.
There are four phases of training in NALCO Training need analysis. training
design, training implementation and training evaluation Training evaluation is
the most important part of training process which refers to activities aimed at
finding out the effectiveness of training programme after they are conducted.
against the objective for which such programmes were organized Training
evaluation technique gives us solution to answer questions like where was the
capability level of learners before the programme and where it is now, what
was intended to be achieved by a particular programme and what is really
achieved now and what is the monitory of training outcome against the cost
incurred for conducting the training programme. The key involves staffing
policies selecting ad retaining talented employees. Training and development
whilst encouraging employees to be innovative and creative, cultural barriers
and legal framework. NALCO provides soft skill development training to their
employees. But still they need to work on providing product/process
development training. To evaluate the training programme questionnaire is the
most popular method in NALCO. Training initiatives and programmes have
become a priority for Human resources. As business market changes due to an
increase in technology initiatives, companies need to spend more time and
money on training employees. I today's business climate employee
development IS critical to corporate success and organization are investing
more in their training and development needs.

TYPES OF TRAINING AT NALCO


IN-HOUSE TRAINING
In-house training refers to the process of providing training
and development programs within an organization's premises
or facilities. Instead of sending employees to external training
providers or workshops, companies opt to conduct training
sessions in-house.
In-house training offers several advantages for organizations:
1. Tailored to specific needs: In-house training allows
companies to design and customize training programs to
address the specific needs and requirements of their
employees and organization. The content and delivery of the
training can be aligned with the organization's goals, culture,
and industry.
2. Cost-effective: Conducting training in-house can be more
cost-effective compared to sending employees to external
training programs. Companies can save on travel expenses,
registration fees, and other costs associated with external
training providers.
3. Convenience and flexibility: In-house training offers
greater convenience and flexibility in terms of scheduling.
Companies can arrange training sessions at times that are
most suitable for their employees, minimizing disruption to
regular work routines.
4. Focus on internal processes and systems: In-house
training allows organizations to focus on training employees
on internal processes, systems, and proprietary knowledge
specific to their operations. This ensures that employees are
equipped with the skills and knowledge required to excel in
their roles within the company.
5. Team building and collaboration: In-house training
provides an opportunity for employees to interact and learn
together, fostering team building and collaboration within the
organization. It creates a shared learning experience that can
strengthen relationships and improve communication among
employees.
When conducting in-house training, organizations can utilize
various methods and resources, including:
• Internal trainers: Companies may have internal subject
matter experts or experienced employees who can deliver
training sessions. These individuals can share their
knowledge and experience directly with their colleagues.
• Training materials: Organizations can develop training
materials such as presentations, manuals, videos, and e-
learning modules to support the training process. These
resources can be customized to meet the specific training
objectives.
• Practical exercises and simulations: In-house training can
include hands-on activities, role-playing scenarios, and
simulations to provide practical experience and reinforce
learning outcomes.
• Assessments and evaluations: Companies can use
assessments and evaluations to gauge the effectiveness of
the training and track the progress of participants. This helps
identify areas of improvement and measure the impact of the
training on employee performance.
In conclusion, in-house training is an effective way for
organizations to provide tailored and cost-effective learning
opportunities to their employees. It allows companies to
address specific needs, maximize convenience, and foster
collaboration within the organization.

ONBOARDING TRAINING
Onboarding training, also known as orientation or induction
training, is the process of familiarizing newly hired employees
with the organization, their role, and the expectations
associated with their position. The goal of onboarding
training is to help new employees integrate smoothly into the
company, understand their responsibilities, and quickly
become productive members of the team. It typically takes
place within the first few days or weeks of a new employee's
tenure.
Here are some key components and considerations in
onboarding training:
1. Introduction to the organization: New employees should
be provided with an overview of the company's mission,
values, history, and organizational structure. This helps them
understand the company's culture and how their role
contributes to the overall goals of the organization.
2. Role-specific training: Onboarding should include
training on the specific tasks, responsibilities, and
expectations associated with the new employee's position.
This may involve explaining job duties, demonstrating
processes, and providing access to relevant tools, software,
or resources.
3. Company policies and procedures: New employees
should receive information about important company
policies, such as those related to code of conduct, safety,
security, and confidentiality. They should also be made aware
of any procedures or protocols specific to their role or
department.
4. Introduction to colleagues and key stakeholders: It is
beneficial to facilitate introductions between new employees
and their team members, supervisors, and other key
individuals within the organization. This helps build
relationships, promote collaboration, and create a support
network for the new employee.
5. Workplace culture and values: Onboarding training
should emphasize the organization's culture, values, and
expected behaviors. This includes promoting inclusivity,
diversity, and a positive work environment. Sharing examples
and stories that illustrate the desired culture can help new
employees understand and align with the company's
expectations.
6. Benefits and resources: New employees should be
informed about the employee benefits package, including
health insurance, retirement plans, and any other perks or
resources available to them. They should also be provided
with information about HR policies, such as leave policies,
time tracking, and performance evaluation processes.
7. Ongoing support and mentorship: Onboarding training
should not be limited to the initial few days or weeks.
Organizations can provide ongoing support and mentorship
to new employees to help them acclimate to their roles and
continue their professional development. Assigning a mentor
or buddy to guide and support the new employee can be
valuable in this regard.
8. Evaluation and feedback: It is helpful to periodically
assess the effectiveness of the onboarding training and solicit
feedback from new employees. This allows organizations to
make improvements and address any areas where the
onboarding process may be lacking.
Onboarding training plays a crucial role in setting the stage
for a positive employee experience and long-term success
within the organization. By providing new employees with
the necessary knowledge, tools, and support, organizations
can increase employee engagement, retention, and
productivity.
EXTERNAL TRAINING
External training refers to training programs and courses that
are conducted by external providers, outside of an
organization's premises. Instead of developing and delivering
the training internally, companies send their employees to
external training providers or workshops to enhance their
skills, knowledge, and competencies.
Here are some key aspects and benefits of external training:
1. Expertise and specialized knowledge: External training

employees the opportunity to interact with professionals
from other organizations and industries. This exposure allows
them to gain fresh perspectives, share experiences, and learn
from diverse viewpoints. It broadens their horizons and
encourages innovative thinking.

providers are usually at the forefront of their respective
industries and stay updated with the latest trends,
technologies, and practices. Attending external training
sessions ensures that employees receive current and relevant
information that can be applied directly to their work.
4. Networking opportunities: External training programs
provide a platform for employees to network with peers,
professionals, and experts from different organizations.
Building a network can lead to valuable connections,
collaborations, and knowledge-sharing beyond the training
session.
5. Intensive and focused learning: External training
programs are often designed to provide intensive and
focused learning experiences. They may include interactive
workshops, case studies, simulations, and practical exercises
that allow employees to apply their knowledge and skills in
real-world scenarios.
6. Customization and variety: External training providers
offer a wide range of training programs catering to various
skill sets, industries, and job roles. Companies can choose the
most suitable training options for their employees based on
their specific needs and development objectives.

programs offer certifications or credentials upon successful
completion. These certifications can add value to employees'
resumes, enhance their professional profiles, and
demonstrate their commitment to ongoing learning and
development.
8. Motivation and engagement: Sending employees to
external training can be motivating and engaging for them. It
shows that the company invests in their growth and
development, which can boost employee morale, job
satisfaction, and loyalty.

goals, strategic objectives, and employees' development
needs.

development initiatives by providing employees with
specialized knowledge, exposure to new ideas, and
networking opportunities. It contributes to their professional
growth, enhances their skills, and ultimately benefits the
organization by increasing employee capabilities and
performance.

FOREIGN TRAINING
Foreign training refers to training programs or courses that
take place in a foreign country, usually outside of an
employee's home country. It involves sending employees to
other countries to receive training, develop new skills, or gain
exposure to different cultures, practices, and business
environments. Foreign training opportunities are typically
provided by organizations to broaden employees'
perspectives, enhance their global competencies, and
facilitate cross-cultural understanding.
Here are some key aspects and benefits of foreign training:
1. Cross-cultural exposure and understanding: Foreign
training provides employees with firsthand exposure to
different cultures, customs, and work practices. This
experience helps them develop a broader perspective and a
better understanding of global business environments. It
fosters cultural sensitivity, adaptability, and the ability to
work effectively with diverse teams and clients.

experiences can be transformative for employees on both
personal and professional levels. Living and working in a
different country challenges individuals to step out of their
comfort zones, adapt to new situations, and develop
resilience. It can also boost confidence, self-reliance, and
problem-solving skills.

exposes employees to different markets, business practices,
and economic landscapes. They gain insights into market
dynamics, consumer behavior, and industry trends of the
host country. This knowledge can be invaluable for
organizations expanding into international markets or
working with global clients.
8. Retention and employee engagement: Providing foreign
training opportunities demonstrates an organization's
commitment to employee development and can significantly
enhance employee retention and engagement. Employees
appreciate the investment made in their growth, which can
foster loyalty and motivation.
When planning for foreign training, organizations should:
• Identify the specific training needs and objectives for
employees and match them with appropriate training
programs in foreign countries.
• Ensure employees are adequately prepared for the
cultural and logistical aspects of living and working in a
foreign country, such as visa requirements, health and safety
considerations, and cultural orientation.
• Provide support and resources to employees during
their foreign training, such as language training, cultural
awareness programs, and access to local contacts for
assistance.
• Establish mechanisms to capture and share the
knowledge and experiences gained during the foreign
training to maximize organizational learning and benefit
other employees.
Foreign training can be a valuable investment for
organizations and employees alike. It promotes global
perspectives, cultural competence, and professional growth,
while also positioning the organization for success in the
global marketplace.

complement their practical learning. The classroom
component covers theoretical knowledge, safety procedures,
technical concepts, and relevant regulations and standards.
This classroom instruction is delivered through formal
training sessions, workshops, or online learning platforms.

close mentorship and supervision by experienced
professionals who serve as mentors or trainers. These
mentors provide guidance, support, and feedback to
apprentices, ensuring they acquire the necessary skills and
knowledge in a hands-on environment. The mentors also
assess the progress of apprentices and provide regular
performance evaluations.
4. Progressive skill development: Apprentice programs are
designed to allow apprentices to progressively develop their
skills and expertise over time. They start with foundational
skills and gradually advance to more complex tasks as they
gain experience and proficiency. This progressive approach
ensures a well-rounded skill set and prepares apprentices for
higher-level responsibilities within the trade or profession.
5. Industry-recognized certifications: Apprentice programs
often lead to industry-recognized certifications or
qualifications upon successful completion. These
certifications validate the skills and knowledge acquired
during the apprenticeship and can enhance career prospects
and employability in the industry.
6. Compensation and employment: Apprentices typically
receive compensation for their work, often in the form of a
salary or stipend. As they progress in their training, their
compensation may increase to reflect their growing skills and
contributions. In some cases, apprentices may secure full-
time employment with the same organization after
successfully completing their apprenticeship.
7. Collaboration with educational institutions: Many
apprentice programs involve partnerships between
employers and educational institutions, such as vocational
schools or community colleges. These collaborations ensure
that apprentices receive a well-rounded education that
combines practical training with academic instruction.
8. Benefits for employers: Apprentice programs offer
several benefits to employers. They enable organizations to
develop a skilled and competent workforce tailored to their
specific needs. Apprenticeships also promote loyalty and
retention as apprentices tend to stay with the organization
after completing their training. Furthermore, apprenticeships
can help address skills shortages within the industry and
contribute to the development of a highly skilled workforce.
When establishing an apprentice program, organizations
should:
• Define clear learning objectives and competency
requirements for the apprenticeship.
• Establish a structured curriculum that integrates on-the-
job training and classroom instruction.
• Select qualified mentors or trainers who have the
necessary expertise and experience.
• Provide adequate resources and support for apprentices'

may provide a developed picture in comparison of the study
based on long run. Sampling size of the study was only 20
because only these people have attended the soft skill
development training Corporate HR, NALCO only provides
soft skill development training, not skill based (product/
process) training. So how can one evaluate the skill based
training is still unresolved The study as based only on
secondary & primary data so lack of keen observations and
interactions were also the limiting factors in the proper
