The Impact of Technology on Employee Training and Development Process
Abstract
Training is a systematic and organized learning process by which people learn the skills, concept, attitude and develop their knowledge so as to improve individual, team and organizational performance. Now a days Indian Government initiatives viz., SKILL INDIA, MAKE IN INDIA are propelling development and expansion of manufacturing sector as the sector provides maximum job employment to the people directly and indirectly. Manufacturing sector is facing tremendous challenges from the market and they have to cope with the changing market conditions and requirements. Training and Development helps to improve employee’s Knowledge, Skills and Ability. Thus organizations are now shifting themselves from imparting traditional training to Modern Technology based Training so that employee will accept the change easily and will become ‘Skilled Employee’ than ‘Knowledged Employee’. The present research study throws light the effectiveness of technology based Employee Training on Employee’s performance level in selected manufacturing units in various locations like Pune, Mumbai, Delhi etc. Â
