TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

Training and Development is one of the main functions of the human resource
management department. Training refers to a systematic setup where employees
are instructed and taught matters of technical knowledge related to their jobs. It
focuses on teaching employees how to use particular machines or how to do
specific tasks to increase efficiency.
Whereas, Development refers to the overall holistic and educational growth and
maturity of people in managerial positions. The process of development is in
relation to insights, attitudes, adaptability, leadership and human relations.
Training and development programmes are designed according to the
requirements of the organisation, the type and skills of employees being trained,
the end goals of the training and the job profile of the employees. These
programmes are generally classified into two types: (i) on the job programmes,
and (ii) off the job programmes.
Different training is given to employees at different levels. The following
training methods are used for the training of skilled workers and
operators- Specific job training programmes, technical training at a training
with live demos, Internship training, Training via the process of rotation of job.
Training given to people in a supervisory or managerial capacity is – Lectures,
Group Discussions, Case studies, Role-playing, Conferences etc. Training and
development makes an employee more productive and effective. They can also
avoid mistakes, accidents on the job with proper training.

TATA Motors Limited runs a skill development programme called Kaushalya


(TATA MOTORS ACADEMY). The program will include modules in light of
the aptitudes for configuration, design, engineering, manufacturing, automobile
production, sales & service as well in various support functions with a focus on
quality, productivity, dexterity, discipline and safety (TATAmotorscom, 2017).
There is an another management training centre called TATA Management
Training centre (TMTC) this training centre totally focused on Organizational
Psychology, Leadership Development, Human Resources, Strategy and
Innovation, Marketing, Finance, Corporate Governance, and many others.

In TATA Motors learning programmes, I found that there is a Four


Quadrant Approach of learning uses by the company.
Socialisation where employees share their tacit knowledge among member that
create common mental models and abilities. Socialization transfers tacit
knowledge most frequently through the medium of shared experience.
Externalisation the process of articulating tacit knowledge and transforming it
into models, concepts, analogies, stories and metaphors that can be
communicated by language. 
Combination is the process of combining or reconfiguring bodies of existing
knowledge in order to generate new explicit knowledge, by addition. It is the
most common process in formal education. In organisations, it is obtained by
the exchange of explicit knowledge among members, as in formal reunions.
Internalisations where employees share their explicit knowledge to tacit like
new employee share his previous employer’s experience.
Amongst various accolades, TATA Motors also recognized as the Best
Learning Organization of Asia (2011-12). Several reputed organizations
across various sectors were evaluated through a rigorous, multi-stage,
independent assessment process.
