Three will be covered in these notes.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Induction Training<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>This is training that takes place when an employee starts a new job.<\/li>\n<li>During an induction an employee will usually meet their line manager and colleagues, get a tour of the workplace, and be made aware of health and safety procedures \u2013 like fire evacuation procedures. This is used to help employees settle into their new job.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">On-The-Job Training<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>This type of training takes places in the workplace while the employee is doing their day to day work. Examples of this could be shadowing a colleague or roleplay scenarios.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Advantages<\/span> of this type of training saves the organisation money as they usually do not need to bring in outside trainers and work is still being done while the training takes place.<\/li>\n<li>The <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">downsides<\/span> of on-the-job are that bad habits can be picked up and the training may not be of the highest quality.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Off-The-Job Training<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>This type of training takes place away from the workplace.<\/li>\n<li>Employees may be sent off to a training centre or college\/university to learn.<\/li>\n<li>Employees may earn qualifications as a result of this training or may need this type of training in order to carry out the job correctly.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Advantages<\/span> of this type of training are that the training is carried out by experts, so should be of a high quality and the employee will not be distracted by their work.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Disadvantages<\/span> are that it may cost the organisation to pay for the training course, venue, trainers and employees\u2019 travel costs and the employees who are being trained will need to be covered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Training Employees It is very important that staff are then trained in the specifics of that firm.
