Human Resources Training Methods
1. Discuss the factors that can affect whether training
transfers back to the job. Which factor, or two, do you feel is/are the most
important to ensure transfer? Support your choices.
2. Describe the purpose and advantages of conducting a needs
assessment. How does your organization determine training needs?
3. Do you agree with the statement, “for learning to
take place, the most important variable to consider is whether the individual
learner has sufficient ability to learn what is being taught?” Explain you
answer.
4. What type of learning experiences would best serve a
visual learner? An aural leaner? Someone who learns best by reading and
writing? Someone who learns best by doing, that is by physical activity? What
are the implications of your recommendations for effective training program
design?
