Training are designed on the basis of their job or work so that they learn how to work done in the organisation and they understand culture and structure of organisation. Employees work effectively and satisfaction to the employees.

New people, new proceedings, new clients. The reasons why organizations undertake training processes are many and very diverse.

Training is an essential activity in every organization. Training helps in imparting skills to employees that help them do their work in a more effective way. Training is one of the best ways to bridge the gap between the requirements of the job and the profile of the employee. Training can enhance the competence of the employee that can positively affect work performance. Traditionally, training has been conducted through classroom sessions where employees assemble in a hall and are trained by a trainer. The problem with this model is it restricts training to a few hours and necessitates employees to be made free during this time.

Online training:

While there are various types of training, the following six types of training are most essential for employees and would be valuable for every organization.

1. Orientation training:

The orientation training is the initial training conducted for all new employees. It involves inducing the new employee into the organization. Key topics covered would include:

• Organization vision, mission, and objectives
• Organization structure and history
• Organization culture
• Introduction to organization activities
• Important policies and procedures

All these topics can be effectively covered through online training modules.

2. Onboarding: Most people confuse orientation with onboarding. Orientation is a one-time activity done when the employee joins. Onboarding takes place over a longer duration. Apart from the initial introduction, it ensures the employee get adjusted into the department or function, where he/she is placed. It ensures that employees understand their job profile and fit into their work smoothly and effectively. This may require training that is conducted over multiple sessions. Online training would be suitable to ensure regular training until the onboarding is complete.

3. Product training: An organization sells its products or services to customers and every employee must be aware of this. Depending on the nature of their work, they need to know all about the products. The product type, the need for the product, its history, product features, unique proposition value the product offers are some of the things every employee should be aware of. Those who interact with customers need in-depth product knowledge so they would be able to handle any queries posed by customers. 

4. Soft skills training :

Apart from the core technical skills, employees need soft skills to be able to do their job in the best possible way. Some of these skills are:

• Communication skills
• Leadership skills
• Time management
• Stress management
• Problem-solving abilities
• Decision-making skills
• Work ethics
• Conflict management

These soft skills help to build the overall personality of the employee. It gives them the confidence needed to do their job well.

5. Mandatory training: This includes training on mandatory topics that may be required by law or regulations. It can be training on prevention of sexual harassment, training on work safety basic first-aid training, fire safety training, training on office rules, etc.

6. Technical training: To do his/her work, an employee needs technical skills. These are skills in the subject area related to the employee’s jobs. These skills help the employee to do their work as per requirements. If the job is a marketing job, then the employee needs to have marketing skills and skills in handling customers. If the job is related to software development, the employee requires in-depth knowledge of the development tool. Most technical skills are gained during education. In reality, there is a large gap between what a person learns at college and what is required for a job.

Traditional approach training: Traditional approaches to training still offer a number of benefits and are commonly found in many companies today. Here is a list of training methods from the traditional category that should be considered when choosing the best training techniques for employees in your company.

Classroom-based -training programs :

Usually led by a qualified facilitator, classroom learning takes place over one or more days in a physical venue on- or off-site. Groups of employees go through a series of presentation slides and activities, like case study assessments or information on company policy issues.

The advantage of classroom-based training is that a group of employees can attain large amounts of knowledge at the same time. Unfortunately, the disadvantages are many: hired venues, travel, and catering make this training method costly. Employees also find this approach to training boring.

Interactive training:

One of the most effective training methods in the workplace, interactive training actively involves learners in their own learning experience. This training can take the form of simulations, scenarios, role plays, quizzes or games.

By practicing their new skills and applying them in realistic work scenarios, learners are not only more engaged but more likely to retain what they’ve learned, too. However, it can be time-consuming when done in person, especially when learners require regular feedback from a content expert.

why is the training important in the organisation

▪︎Employee retention and enhanced performance

▪︎Increased revenue and organisational competitiveness

why do organisation invest in training :

• Change in workplace
• improvement in quality
• Introduction of new technologies and Upgradations

Assam government has decided to upgrade Dehing Patkai wildlife sanctuary to national park

The park will be the 105^th entrant in the list of the 104 existing national parks in the country covering an area of approximately 40000 square kilometers, accounting for 1.23% of the total Indian geographical area. This last entry was made in 2018 when the Kuno wildlife sanctuary in Madhya Pradesh was converted into a National Park.

The erstwhile wildlife sanctuary is situated in Dibrugarh & Tinsukia districts of Assam and covers an area of 111 square kilometers. It was declared a sanctuary on 13 June 2004. The “would-be national park” is a dense evergreen rainforest, which when observed by a satellite looks like a “big dark green patch” cut into two parts by the Dehing river. The name of the park is formed by the amalgamation of names of Dehing river and the Patkai Bum hills located in the east end of the park.

Referred to as the “Amazon of the East”, this forestland stretches for 575 square kilometers in Assam. The previous sanctuary was also an elephant reserve under the Project Elephant because of concentration of Asian elephant in the evergreen forest habitat. It is a rich and unique biodiversity hotspot that is home to several rare and endangered animal species; Hoolock gibbon, sluggish loris, pig-tailed macaque, capped langur, Bengal tiger.

It, also, is home to close to 300 different bird species including Slender-billed vulture, white-winged duck, Larger spotted eagle, larger and smaller adjutant, etc. Rock python, King cobra, Asian leaf turtle, monitor lizard are the most common reptiles found in this area. Thirty different butterfly species thrive in this gorgeous tropical vegetation.

Any area other than that comprised of any reserve forest or territorial waters may be notified to constitute a sanctuary if such area is of sufficient biological, faunal, floral, geomorphological, geological or zoological importance for the purpose of preserving, spreading or cultivating wildlife or their habitat. Within the sanctuary area are permitted certain restricted human activities details of which are provided in the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972. The country has a total of 551 Wildlife Sanctuaries.

What is a National Park? An area, whether within a sanctuary or not, can be notified by the state government to be constituted as a National Park, by the same reasons as mentioned above for a wildlife sanctuary. But the distinction is made between the two by the fact that no human activity is permitted inside the national park except for the ones permitted by the Chief Wildlife Warden of the state under the conditions given in the Chapter 4 of the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972.

A political perspective can be attributed to the move as the proclamation came just months after the conditional clearance by the National Board of Wildlife (NBWL) to a Coal India Limited (CIL) coal mining project in the vicinity of the sanctuary area that triggered protests movements in the state.

Film influences adolescents in various sort of ways. One reason for the prevalence of the film is that it engages various types or individuals, youthful and old, educated and ignorant. The greater part of the young people watching films are for relaxations. Some of the time, they feel pressure, with the goal that adolescents investing their energy in watching motion pictures in film. To start with, film impact youth adversely and decidedly. This is on the grounds that; young people will mirror their preferred on-screen character and entertainer to follow precisely their styles, for example, dressing styles, hairdo, character of the on-screen character or on-screen character act in the film, language, etc. Motion pictures influence young people in their disposition.

Plus, viciousness in the film influences young people’s brains? In light of my study, some “concur” and some of them answer is “impartial”. Viciousness in the film influences youngsters to do likewise. This is on the grounds that, normally in film, they will do criminal operations, for example, pirating, burglary, drinking, smoking, consuming medications, etc. In a film, they act yet it looks precisely genuine. So youngsters get intrigue and include in negative exercises.

Movies impact on shaping mind as well as on society. That is primarily on the grounds that individuals become lethargic and need to make associations by watching them.

In any case, individuals are so sluggish when they are watching movies. Study has demonstrated individuals who watch movies or TV at any rate four hours in seven days tend not to practice so frequently. To keep solid, individuals need to practice well. Obviously individuals sit for quite a while and don’t move at all during watching movies. Also, individuals are uninvolved while they watch films. Individuals don’t need to communicate anything, so they don’t will in general consider anything.

Besides, individuals manufacture connections to impart their insight about laborers. After individuals delighted in films and TV, they are anxious to impart their insight. On account of present day innovation, individuals can impart their insight past the distinction of nation and ages. They can have numerous chances to contact with individuals.
