SYNOPSIS
Topic of study:
A comprehensive study of Training & Development programs that has been carried out
by Apollo Tyres Limited.
So it is most important for every organization to provide such training to the employees
for development of their skills as well as knowledge related to the job, that will fulfill his
own requirement of learning and the requirement of the organization and achieve the
organization goal too.
2
I would like to go through relevant files and the company has carried out
documents from where can get an idea about the different types of training
and development that.
iii. Feedback from the employees through the interview and written
questionnaire.
For evaluation the effectiveness of training and development programs I would
like to take feedback from employees that how much they get benefit from that
programs. At last I would like to take suggestion for future improvement.

INTRODUCTION
Successful candidates placed on the job need training to perform their duties effectively
Workers must be trained to operate machines, reduce scrap and avoid accidents It is not
only workers but executives and supervisors who need training as well in order to enable
them to acquire maturity of thought and action Training and development constitute an
ongoing process in any organization Training thus means to turn members into productive
insiders It is the second step after recruitment, screening and selection The principles of
learning make training work ,thus how a person learns should be the guiding principle in
explaining how a person should be trained Thus training requires
Practice
Feedback
Motivation to learn
Thus training is systematic and intentional basically involving the felicitation of the
learning process Further training enhances three broad classes of skills
Motor skills: manipulation of physical environment based on certain patterns of
bodily movements
Cognitive skills: acqusitional of mental and attitudinal functions
Interpersonal skills: enhancing interactions with other people

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT POLICY
Every company should be fully committed to the continuous development of its staff, in
the same ways as we continuously develop our services. This will be achieved by
helping all staff identify and meet their own job and business related development needs.
This policy will ensure that we have the adaptability and flexibility to thrive and succeed
as a business. To do this, all line managers, through the Performance Review process,
will
Ensure that staff have a level of knowledge and skill to fully perform their role
Encourage staff to develop within their current role
Look for potential, and find ways for staff to demonstrate potential
Recognize and reward staff development (utilizing it wherever possible)
Create a learning culture by providing opportunities for learning
Equal opportunities
All staff are entitled to and can expect to receive training they need to carry out their
current role. This includes seconded, fixed-term contract or short-term contract staff.
Permanent employees can expect to benefit from further commitment for each individual
to devote at least 5 days a year towards training and development. First priority will be
towards job-related training, but we will also encourage individuals to undertake personal
development training. This may entail taking professional qualifications; undertaking
research into a particular field of interest or experiencing a particular aspect of another
job in order to gain an insight into the role and fuller understanding of the work.
11
Training should not be viewed purely as “attending a training course”. There are a
variety of different methods that can be used to help train and develop individuals and
Personnel Services will be happy to help individuals and managers select the most
appropriate method. For example, using open learning materials; computer-based
packages; videos or CD-ROMs; e-learning; and reading literature, to name but a few.
Shared responsibilities
It is recognizes the need for everyone to learn and develop their skills on a continuous
basis and will support individuals to help them achieve this. Equally, the company
expects individuals to take on some responsibility for their own self-development. For
example, identifying suitable training activities (with the help of line managers and
Personnel Services) and adopting a flexible and positive approach to any training and
development that is identified with them.
Identifying training and development needs, and helping individuals to improve their
performance, are key responsibilities for line managers, so they are expected to be
actively involved in their team’s training and development. Line managers are also
responsible for measuring the effectiveness of any training and development undertaken
by team members, with assistance from Personnel Services.
The skills and knowledge that will be needed for the future success of the company will
become apparent as each year’s business (corporate) plan is drafted and communicated to
teams within the company and individual performance objectives agreed. Where
individual skills, knowledge or the development of competencies are needed to achieve
our business objectives, these should be recorded on the Development Needs Assessment
plan, which forms part of our Performance Review process.
12
Setting and evaluating learning objectives/outcomes
The company has a number of key business objectives that it needs to achieve. These
objectives can be achieved only through harnessing the abilities and skills of everyone in
the company and by releasing potential and maximizing opportunities for development.
If individuals need to learn in order to achieve business objectives, it is important that any
training and development in which we invest has a relationship to our business
objectives, so we can demonstrate the contribution learning makes towards overall
organizational success.
To demonstrate this contribution, individuals will agree with their line managers, prior to
undertaking a learning activity, “learning objectives”. Learning objectives will be the
means by which managers and company can measure how effective training and
development has been towards achieving our business objectives or performance. Setting
learning objectives will therefore provide a benefit for everyone:
For managers, objectives provide a basis for allocating responsibility to individuals for
achieving certain results; monitoring the achievement of results and providing solid
evidence, which is less subjective, for assessing an individual’s performance.
For the organization, objectives give a greater likelihood of strategic and corporate plans
being achieved.
Once someone has experienced a training and development activity or learning, we will
measure its impact and effectiveness on individual performance and the organization.
Again, line managers are expected to be part of this process by defining the performance
13
standards (or measures) when setting objectives and deciding on the methods that they
will use to evaluate the learning. (Personnel Services will of course be available
throughout the process to provide guidance and support).
There are three key stages that will be used to evaluate training and development:
14
In summary then, Personnel Services will evaluate training and development at the
reaction and organizational levels, and line managers will be responsible for evaluating
the effectiveness of training and development at the performance level. However, there
will be some types of learning activities, for example attending conferences or seminars,
where it may not be appropriate to undertake any evaluation. If any doubt, please contact
Personnel Services.
To assist line managers, there are a variety of methods that can be used to measure the
effectiveness of the learning. Some of these include:
Participant self-assessment
Written or practical tests
Structured interviews
Questionnaires
Feedback – for example, internally from colleagues, peers, and managers and/or
externally from partners, customers or clients
Qualifications obtained
Line managers should contact Personnel Services, who will be pleased to help set-up an
evaluation method to use to measure the effectiveness of a training activity.
Funding
Funding for training and development will be paid from a central training budget,
therefore the Head of Personnel Services must approve any training and
development that involves a financial cost before any financial commitment is
made. Details of how to apply for a training and development are explained under
the section headed “Selecting a training provider and applying for training”.
In addition to job-related training and development, company also recognises the need to
help individuals to improve within their chosen career path by encouraging individuals to
15
gain professional/vocational/academic qualifications. With this in mind, company has
established a company sponsorship scheme whereby full or partial sponsorship will be
provided. Information about the scheme can be found under the section headed
“Company sponsorship”.
Where an individual needs to attend a training course funded by company, time off during
working hours will be given to attend the course. Individuals are expected to travel to
and from a training venue within the normal course of the day. Where company is
providing sponsorship towards a professional qualification, time off to attend
lectures/workshops/summer school will be agreed on an individual basis, taking account
of the business needs. The Head of Personnel Services will approve any such requests, in
full consultation with line managers.
16
Selecting a training provider and applying for training
Before booking a training event, individuals should research the costs and course
availability with possible training providers. Personnel Services will be happy to help as
they keep details of various training providers, so please contact them for
information/advice.
Company organised training programmes, for example Customer Service Training, Team
Building training, will be co-ordinated through Personnel Services (so individuals do not
have to complete any forms). All other training and development activities must be
authorised by Personnel Services before any training is booked.
Company sponsorship
Company recognises the need for continuous professional development and are pleased
to be able to offer a sponsorship scheme to all permanent and fixed-term employees
(whose contracts are for at least one year). The scheme covers professional, academic or
NVQ (or equivalent) qualifications. The following guidelines are designed to give
individuals an idea of the sort of funding that may be available and how individuals may
apply.
17
TRAINING NEEDS IDENTIFICATION
For purposes of this discussion we will divide the training process into three phases:
(2) Training Systems (courses, modules, training aids, presentation, instructors, records)
(3) Evaluation
The first phase is the identification and analysis of an organization's training needs. As a
minimum, the organization should be able to accomplish the following four things:
18
Identification of training needs (ITN)
Identification of training needs (ITN), if done properly, provides the basis on which all
other training activities can be considered. Also requiring careful thought and analysis, it
is a process that needs to be carried out with sensitivity: people’s learning important to
them, and the success or the organization may by to stake.
It is important to know exactly what you are doing, and why, when undertaking ITN. This
is the reason we have included material to help you make considered decision and take
thoughtful action. You will find, however, that the return on the investment you make in
fully understanding what ITN is all about will make it well worth while.
19
STUDY OF NEEDS OF TRAINING
In Apollo Tyres Limited Greaves Ltd., Delhi across training is customized product wise.
If any defect comes in a product or process, a training session is initiated to eradicate root
cause.
There are normally two work stations in production,
1. Critical station
2. Normal station
At critical work station an efficient worker should produce 5000 to 6000 units in one
shift. At this work station minor job is done.
At normal work station an efficient worker should be produce 8000 to 10000 units in one
shift in normal circumstances.
A worker get the permanent job after the good and consistent performance in the
company, these people are well experienced in their relative jobs.
Temporary worker is a layman. They don’t know any thing about the work, so these types
of people require training.
When a new person joins the company, he got the training about the safety and
maintenance. For getting these training he is send in technical training cell (TTC). In
TTC he has to go some basic knowledge and instruction, which is given by the just senior
boss. That person is called line in charge. During the training a person gets the job. He is
watched by the line in charge. At any point the line in charged found any fault in the
20
work, the line in charge instructed at that time, so that the worker does the job in a proper
way and come out with zero-defect product.
After the TTC training employees are divided among various teams and send to the
different operations, on the different operations. A line-in charge is there, who will watch
each and every steps during the work. If any fault in the work is found, he takes that
serious and instructs to remove the fault immediately.
After some experience the worker is transferred from one operation to another operation
area. Where same procedure is performed. He works and if get any confusion regarding
the job, he may ask the line in charge or if line in charge see any fault during the
operation, he educates the worker to do the job better. This process is repeated on each
and every operation. This is how each and every employee is familiarized to the job . The
main advantage of this job rotation is, if any worker does not come on the particular day,
that place can be filled by any other worker and the works progress without any
interruption.
After job rotation and getting experienced the entire worker divided into three groups,
Highly efficient
Efficient
Adequate
If a person can handle all the machines related to any particular job. That worker is called
highly efficient worker. After getting training 40% out of them became as highly efficient
worker. These workers are very efficient and can handle any situation during the work.
He can work on any machine at any time without any problem. These people can take
decision at the critical point of time. So that these type of worker are called highly
efficient worker.
After highly efficient the second category is called ‘efficient’. In this category those type
of person are master in their job. He is master in one job. In this category 50% worker
21
comes. These types of people are well known people in their particular job. They are not
able to handle the different machines. They feel problem in some job.
After that the third category comes, that is called adequate. This type is not beneficial for
the company. So that they are not acceptable. They have less knowledge and not will to
work.
Highly efficient person is well-known about their job. He can handle any situation. So
that this type of people doesn’t require training.
Efficient people are master of just on job. So that they need training to be highly efficient
worker.
Company is giving training to the efficient worker. For them there are three types of
training;
Counseling
Give the opportunity to work with highly efficient worker.
Give the expert knowledge about the work.
In counseling the instructor or line in charge counsel the worker. A line in charge tries to
motivate the worker to do their job in proper way. This is a verbal communication. With
the help of words a senior person tries to make them as effective as highly efficient
worker.
The second option “provide them opportunity to work with highly efficient people” helps
those people to learn. During the work he can watch how the highly efficient people
work? How can they handle the situation? They got the idea about the problem, which
may be arising during the work. They also get the idea about dealing those types of
problems. This way an efficient worker is developed to be highly efficient worker.
22
Before start working every worker should get the knowledge about the job profile.
Without proper knowledge no one can perform better. There must be some defective in
the product due to less knowledge about the production process. So specific knowledge is
essential for zero-defect product. This is the duty of management to educate them and
provide full knowledge about the production process and quality control.
For adequate people company has some other way for giving them training. The work
pressure is the best way for make them work. Under this the adequate person is send to
work between two highly efficient workers. Highly efficient people can work faster than
adequate person. So from both sides he faces the pressure for work faster and effectively.
This way an adequate worker can be the efficient and highly efficient worker for
company.
In any company some factor effect the training:
Strategies changes
Technical changes
Matter of cost saving
If the top management of the company want to change their strategies. Here company
wants trained people for work. So firstly company looked for the experienced people, but
it is very difficult to get trained people. So they hired semi- skilled people and after
joining them they give them training. So that this can work effectively and according to
the requirement of the company.
If company wants some technical change in product, they also require trained people for
work. Technical change requires more technical people. If company wants to retain the
same people who are working form last some times then company has to give them
training. After getting training a worker can adjust in any environment and work
effectively.
23
Today’s era is the cost cutting era. In the intensive competition cost of the product is very
important. We can’t survive in the market with high cost. So we need to cut the cost of
the product. For cutting the cost we need more trained worker who can work faster and
quickly. So that the production time can be reduced. At lastly we can get the low price
product.
So that in every area we need trained people. For getting trained people we have to make
them trained by giving training.

OBJECTIVE OF THE
RESEARCH
25
OBJECTIVE OF THE RESEARCH
The main motto of this project was to know, how company conducts training program.
What are the basic requirements during this process? How does the company come to
know that some body needs training? After providing them training analysis is required.
Analysis makes the management aware of the workers or staffs whosoever had gone
through the training. Development is the main objective of any training. If there is no any
development, the objective of training is not achieved. So for achieving the objective,
development is very much required.
The way of analyzing of the training should be carefully developed. Because a good
analysis reflects the true figure of the development of trainees. How the company
analyses the training is a subject to be learnt.
So the ultimate goal of this project is to study the way of providing training as well as the
way of measure the development of trainees in Apollo Tyres Limited.

RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
27
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research works involve a systematic process. There must be well-defined procedure for
each and every research work, which always need a set of methodologies.
The methodology for any research work constitutes the selection of representative sample
from the whole of the universe (or population) and also, applying appropriate tools and
techniques of research.
1. Firstly, an intense Literature Survey was done from the Apollo Tyres
Limited Training Manuals and;
After preparing the questionnaire on the basis of research design, it was firstly tested on
six respondents. After getting the responses, certain modifications were done to make it
more focused and also, free-flowing.
28
Research Instrument :-
The research instrument was structured questionnaire with the choice of open-ended and
close-ended questions.
Field data :-
The field data has been collected by personally administering the questionnaire of the
topic.
Sampling Plan :-
1. Sampling Unit :-
Each respondent was considered as a single unit in the whole research work.
2. Sampling size :-
The sampling size or the universe of the research work was 100 trainees & 15
reporting officers.
3. Sampling procedure :-
29
Information sources :-
a) Survey of the employees who underwent training programs 3-5 months back by
giving them Questionnaires and collecting their feedback.
b) Participants List.

METHODOLOGY OF TRAINING
31
Job instruction training
Job rotation
Apprenticeships
Coaching
Vestibule training
Supervisory training:
Supervisory training needs reveal utmost divergence in view of divergent duties of
supervisors. Employee attitude surveys help in identifying area of supervisory training.
Likewise, supervisors themselves may be requested to indicate the areas where they need
32
training. Frequently, these surveys indicate that supervisors need training in human
relations, production control, company policies and how to instruct. Supervisory courses
consist of job methods training (JMT) and job relations training (JRT). The JMT helps the
supervisors to improve methods in their departments, while the JRT helps them in
handling human relations problems in their departments.
33
Steps of job instruction training:
The trainee receives an overview of the job, its purpose and its desired outcomes
with an emphasis on the relevance of the training. Since the employee is shown
the action that the job requires, the training is transferable to the job.
The employee is allowed to mimic the trainer’s example. Demonstration by the
trainer and practice by the trainee are repeated until the job is mastered. Repeated
demonstrations and practice provide repetition and feedback. Finally the
employee performs the job without supervision, although the trainer may visit the
employee to see if there are any lingering questions.
Advantages:
Easy organized
Realistic
Stimulates high motivation
Speeds up worker’s adjustment
Less costly
Disadvantages:
The disadvantage of this method is that the assigned instructor may be a poor teacher.
The worker may haste for immediate production, so the actual cost may increase.
JOB ROTATION:
Some trainers move a trainee from job to job. Each worker move normally is preceded by
job instruction training. This is a method of training wherein workers rotate through a
variety of jobs. Thereby providing them a wide exposure. Trainees are placed in different
jobs in different parts of the organization for a specified period of time. They may spend
several days or even years in different company locations. In this way they get an overall
perspective of the organization. It is used with both blue-collar production workers and
white collar managers and it has many organizational benefits. Job rotation creates
34
flexibility, during manpower shortages, workers have the skills to step in and fill open
slots. The method also provides new and different work on a systematic basis, giving
employees a variety of experiences and challenges. Employees also increase their
flexibility and marketability because they can perform a wide array of tasks.
Apprenticeship:
An apprentice is a worker who is learning a trade but who has not reached the state where
he is competent to work without supervision. It is particularly common in the skilled
trades. In organization a new worker is “tutored” by an established worker for a long
period of time. An apprenticeship lasts from two to five years. Each apprentice is usually
given a workbook consisting of reading materials, tests to be taken and practice problem
to be solved. This training is used in such trades, crafts and technical fields in which
proficiency can be acquired after a relatively long period of time in direct association
with the work and under the direct supervision of experts. Training is intense, lengthy and
usually on a one to one basis.
Increasing national attention is being paid to workforce preparation in the United States.
This stems from the growing realization that America's ability to occupy a leading
competitive position in the emerging global economy hinges, to a large degree, on
assuring that the nation's workforce is second to none. Today, unfortunately, this is not the
case. Employers frequently report that significant numbers of young people and adults
alike exhibit serious educational deficiencies and are ill-equipped to perform effectively
in the workplace. As a consequence, leaders from industry, labor, education, and
government are all grappling with how to design educational reforms and
education/training strategies that will improve the skills of America's current and future
workforce.
35
In the spirit of this reform, one particular training strategy -- apprenticeship -- has
captured the interest of many policy makers, educators, and others who are involved in
the national reform movement. Its growing appeal comes as no surprise and, perhaps, is
long overdue. Experience both in the U.S. and growing abroad has repeatedly
demonstrated that apprenticeship is a highly effective strategy for preparing people for
work. The bulk of apprenticeship programs offered in the U.S. and its territories are in the
building trades and manufacturing industries, but there is significant potential to develop
apprenticeship programs in a variety of other industries.
The rush to embrace apprenticeship, however, is leading to efforts that could undermine
the very pillars of its value. For example, in some instances, apprenticeship is being
viewed as a generic concept -- one that can be loosely applied to a variety of learning
situations. Likewise, others have coined such terms as "youth apprenticeship" to
characterize various school-to-work transition programs. Such thinking, while
understandable in an environment that begs for creativity and innovation, may be more
harmful than helpful to the cause.
36
3. Apprenticeship is a training strategy with requirements that are clearly
delineated in Federal and State laws and regulations. The National Apprenticeship
Act of 1937 (also known as the Fitzgerald Act) and numerous State laws provide the
basis for the operation of formal apprenticeship training programs in the U.S.;
regulations that implement these laws are in force today. These laws and regulations
establish minimum requirements for protecting the welfare of the apprentice such as
the length of training, the type and amount of related instruction, supervision of the
apprentice, appropriate ratios of apprentices to journeypersons, apprentice selection
and recruitment procedures, wage progression, safety, etc.
37
What Apprenticeship Is Not
A Policy Recommendation
As the education and training system in this country undergoes its restructuring, how
apprenticeship fits in must be considered. Some may argue that the definition of
apprenticeship should be boarded to encompass some or all of the previously described
alternative training strategies. Unfortunately, this could have the practical effect of
seriously undermining a tried and true training strategy -- on that, ironically, exhibits all
ten qualities that reformers are striving to achieve in new training designs. Of particular
concern is the possibility that an expanded definition could significantly dilute the value
and meaning attached to the apprenticeship credential. Today, an apprentice who earns a
Certificate of Completion and attains journey worker status from a registered
apprenticeship program knows that he or she has acquired industry-defined skills at
industry-accepted standards of performance and can reasonably expect to be gainfully
employed in his or her occupational area. If alternative training strategies (ones that do
38
not fully conform to the essential components) are also permitted to call themselves
"apprenticeship," the apprenticeship credential stands to become devalued. Such a step
makes little sense at a time when other credentials -- such as high school diplomas -- have
lost much of their meaning.
Thus, we conclude that their term "apprenticeship" should be reserved only for those
programs that adhere to the eight essential components described previously. Other
strategies may seek to adopt designs that conform to all the essential components, in
which case they may be called apprenticeship. But to call any other types of programs
"apprenticeship" is to do a major disservice to the participants in such programs. Whether
intentional or not, the participants may be misled into thinking that completion of these
programs will allow them to reap the benefits accorded to graduates of true
apprenticeship programs.
Clearly, we are on the verge of a major revolution with respect to how America prepares
its workforce. As a new national training system emerges in the coming years,
considerable thought should be given to the role of true apprenticeship in that new
system. One on hand, apprenticeship could be the locomotive that drives this training
system. Under this scenario, apprenticeship programs would serve as the principal form
of training for preparing the majority of the nation's workforce. Alternatively,
apprenticeship may become one of several cars on a train that provides a variety of
training options to existing and future workers. This choice requires further study and
broader deliberation, but, whatever the outcome, the integrity of the term
"apprenticeship" should not be jeopardized or compromised.
Coaching:
At management levels Coaching of immediate subordinates by their managers is
common. A coach attempts to provide a model for the trainee to copy it tends to be less
formal than an apprenticeship program. Coaching is almost always handled by the
supervisor or manager. It is likely not to be as directive approaches such as nondirective
39
counseling or sensitivity training. If the trainee’s shortcomings are emotional or personal.
Coaching will be ineffective if relations between trainee and coach are ambiguous in that
the trainee cannot trust the coach.
Vestibule training:
Vestibule training is a type of instruction often found in production work. A vestibule
consists of training equipment that is set up a short distance from the actual production
line. Trainees can practice in the vestibule without getting in the way or slowing down the
production line. These special training areas are usually used for skilled and semiskilled
jobs, particularly those involving technical equipment.
Vestibule is small, so relatively few people can be trained at the same time. The method is
good for promoting practice a learning principle involving the repetition of behavior.
40
What is the subject mater?
The lecture should be brief and to the point, presenting the theme of the subject in a
manner that arouses the interest of the audience from the start. The speaker should be
poised, courteous and sincere. The action should be spontaneous. The role of a lecturer is
make difficult things simple, not the reverse.
Audio-visual techniques:
Audio-visual techniques covers an array of tainting techniques, such as films, slides and
videotapes. It allows seeing while listening and is usually quite good at capturing their
interests. These methods allow a trainer’s message to be uniformly given to numerous
organizational locations at one time and to be reused as often a required.
41
neutral role providing guidance and feedback. Inspite of the intention to encourage
general participation the conferences are frequently dominated by a few, with the
majority no more active than they would be at a lecture. It is more effective than the
lecture in changing adult behavior and also modifying attitudes. The conference method
can draw on the learning principles of motivation and feedback. It is used to enhance
knowledge or attitudinal development.
Role playing
Active participation rather than passive reception facilitate learnings. Role-playing
believes in active participation. This is a training method often aimed at enhancing either
human relations skills or sales techniques. Role-playing can be defined as an educational
or therapeutic technique in which some problems involving human interaction, real or
imaginary is presented and then spontaneously acted out. Participants suggest how the
problem should be handled more effectively in the future. This “acting out” is followed
by discussion and analysis to determine what happened and why and, if necessary, how
the problem could be better handled in future.
Role-playing is less tightly structured than acting, where performers have to say set lines
on sue. Participants are assigned roles in the scenario to be enacted, so , in this way, it is a
device that forces trainees to assume different identities. Usually participants exaggerate
each other’s behavior. Ideally, they get to see themselves as others see them.
42
trainer’s introduction to the session should be such that it would arouse interest of
trainees.
The Enactment: before conducting the role-play-enactment, the trainer should
carry out the following:-
(a) Read aloud generation information,
(B) Those who have volunteered to role play are given briefing sheets and sent out of
the room with the instruction not to communicate amongst themselves,
(C) The instructor should clarify all the doubts that role player might have,
(D) Role players take their positions facing the class, (E) To begin the role play, the
trainer sets the scene by restating the identify of the roles being enacted and making a
brief statement about what has just happened when the action began.
Post Enactment Discussion: in conducting post enactment discussion, reaction to
role play should be obtained form the people who have acted a role play.
Role playing has been shown to be effective (I)in studying small group leadership
skills,(ii) increasing sensitivity to the motivation of others, (iii)improving
interviewing skills, (iv) enhancing ability to develop innovative solutions to
human relation problems, and (v) modifying attitudes.
Case Study
By studying a case situation, trainees learn about real of hypothetical circumstances and
the actions others take under those circumstances. Beside learning from the content of the
case, a person can develop decision making skills. Case method is an excellent medium
for developing analytical skills.
Cases are usually organized around one or more problems or issues that are confronted by
an organization. Cases can range from one page to over fifty pages.
Feedback and repetition, are usually lacking. One inherent difficulty is personal bias.
This method calls for skills with language. But many people are sent to case study
courses primarily because they lack communication skills.
43
When cases are meaningful an similar to work related situations, there is some
transference. There also is the advantage of participation through discussion of the case.
It improves participants’ skills in problem analysis, communication and particularly
brings home to the participant that nothing is absolutely “right or wrong” in the field of
human behavior. Survey results indicate that the case method is considered by training
directors to be the best methods of developing problem solving skills.
Simulation
Simulation is an approach that replicates certain essential characteristics of the real world
organization so that the trainees can react to it as if it were the real thing and then
consequently transfer what has been learned to their job. Simulation training is based on a
reproduction of some aspect of job reality. Simulation usually enhance cognitive skills,
particularly decision making. A very popular training technique for higher level hobs in
which the employee must process large amounts of information.
Simulations have many forms- some use expensive, technical equipment, while others are
far less costly. Some simulations need only one participant, others may involve as many
as 15-20 people working together as a team. Simulations are a broad based training
techniques that can be adapted to suit a company’s need. By using the equipment
simulators, workers can practice new behaviors and operate certain complex equipment’s
free of danger to themselves. Equipment simulators can range from simple mock-ups to
computer based simulations of complete environments. Some of them are utilized to train
a single individual and the others are used for team training.
Programmed instruction is a training approach which makes the advantages of private
tutoring available to large groups of students beings trained in new skills. Programmed
instruction is one of the innovations in teaching technology developed in recent years.
The methods involves an actual piece of equipment, usually called
Teaching machine, of a specially constructed paper booklet.
44
The participants are active in the training process. In fact they determine their
own learning pace.
What is to be learned involves many discrete pieces of material, and the
participants get immediate feedback on whether they have learned each piece.
The major advantage of programmed instruction is that is reduces the training time. The
learning takes place at the students own pace. Participants get immediate feedback. The
participants are active learners, there is constant exchange of information between
themselves and the programme. Fast learners do not have to wait for slow ones to catch
up. Administrative simplicity and increased productivity in training result in lower
training cost per student.
The biggest disadvantage of this method is the absence of a teacher. The book becomes
the teacher. Hence it is absolutely essential that the trainee is highly motivated to
continue learning. The material has to be broken down into a logical sequence, since
there may be several correct ways to perform the task. This methods does not appear to
improve training performance in terms of immediate learning of retention over a time
compares with conventional methods.
45
Syndicate Method
Working in small group to achieve a particular purpose is described as a syndicate
method. The essence of this method is that participants learn from each other and
contribute their own experience to the fullest. The syndicate method is designed to
provide the participant an environment that would help him to reflect critically on his
own work and experience; to update his knowledge of new concepts and techniques with
the help of other co-participants; to develop sound judgement through greater insight into
human behavior. This method is suitable for training and development students, without
any experience.
The participants are divided into groups consisting of about eight to ten participants.
These groups are called “syndicates”. Each syndicate functions as a team that can
represent various functional as well as interest areas. The syndicates are given
assignments which have to be finished and a report submitted by a specified date and
time. By rotation each member of the syndicate becomes the leader for completing a
specific task. Each assignment to a syndicate is given in the form of a “Brief”. This is a
carefully prepared document by the faculty. Generally, each syndicate is required to
submit a report which is circulated to other syndicates for critical evaluation.
The advantages of this method is that it secures a very high level of involvement from
the participants. Their own experience is the starting point in this method. It is a process
of self business and development for participants. This method also gives the participant
a practice in communicating with his colleagues and understanding them.
If the syndicate is not structured properly, it should lead to a lot of wastage of time and
cause frustration. In the absence of proper pressure on the participants by trainers or
participants themselves, some participants might start dragging their feet. Differences of
opinion or viewpoint may be ignored to avoid action.
Behavior Modeling
46
According to social learning theory, most human behavior is learned observationally
through modeling. When social learning theory is applied in industrial training
programmes, it is commonly referred to as “behavior modeling”. Used behavior
modelling to improve the interpersonal and communication skills of supervisors in
dealing with their employees. The topic was first introduction by the trainers after which
a film was shown to the trainees which depicted a supervisor model effectively handing a
situation, followed by a set of three to six learning parts that were shown in the film
immediately before and after the model was presented. A group discussion is them held
in which the effectiveness of the method is discussed. After this, the practice session
starts in which one of the trainee assumes the role of an employee. And then, feedback
from the training class is given on the effectiveness of each trainee in demonstrating the
desired behavior.
At the end of each training session, the trainees are given copies of the learning points
and are asked to try and apply them to their jobs during the following week. It has been
found that this programme has had desirable effects on learning, behavior and
performance criteria.
There creation of the behavior may be videotaped so that the trainer and the trainee can
review and critique it. When watching the ideal behavior, the trainee also gets to see the
negative consequences that befall someone who does not use it as recommended. By
observing the positive and negative consequences, the employee receives vicarious
reinforcement that encourages the correct behavior.
47
The aspects to which the fish bowl exercise can be put to effective use are; individual and
group behaviour , content of communication, roles individuals paly in groups, intergroup
conflicts, level of participation, dynamics of group problem solving and decision making
and, inter personal relations.
The exercise can involve up to 25 participants seated in two concentric circles( one
inner, the outer).the inner circle is the target group, members of this group will either
discuss a preselected topic or move towards completion of a group task. After the
discussion by the members of the inner group, the outer group is asked to comment on
the content and more importantly the dynamics and group process of the inner group
members
Participants must learn to provide feedback with clarity and precision. Feedback must
never be critical or it loses its constructive nature. After one cycle of the exercise is
completed the outer group will change palces with the inner group and become the target
group , inner group member become observers and the exercise is repeated.
There are several non-group methods involving an assessment of each individual’s
strengths and weaknesses.
Counselling:
It helps the trainees to observe their weaknessed and involves measures to
overcome them. It is related to periodic appraisals of ratings. Specifically
counselling purports to help the subordinates to do a better job, provides a clear
picture of how they are doing, build strong personal relationships and eliminate,
of at least minimize anxiety.
Understudies System:
48
In this the trainees work directly with individuals whom they are likely to
replace. However, it is disappointing as a training because of a likelihood of an
imitation of weak as well as strong points of the seniors.
49
SKILL TRAINING
SKILL TRAINING
Proper training can be as important as the equipment used and other characteristics of the
job.
The money annually paid for training by business and industry also demonstrates the
importance of training. It has been estimated that American business firms spend more
than $30 billion per year on training and development, with some estimates running as
high as $100 billion Motorola, Inc. alone spends about $44 million annually on employee
education.
Another indication of the importance business and industrial firms attach to training is the
estimate, made a few years ago, that some forty five thousand employees across the
United States were assigned full-time to training and development activities. Since then
the figures have no doubt grown.
This broad definition of training includes both skills training, which is usually of a
technical nature and has a short-term focus, and management and career development
programs, which are aimed at educating employees above and beyond the immediate
technical requirements of their jobs in order to increase the organizations present and
future ability to attain its goals. Thus, management and career development tend to be
more future oriented than skills training.

5S TRAINING
What Is 5S?
The five S stand for the five first letters of these Japanese words:
Meaning
Seiri Sort
Seiton Set in Order
Seiso Shine
Seiketsu Standardization
Shitsuke Sustain
It is often promoted as being far more than simply housekeeping and some of the
elements described below certainly move into broader areas.
Naturally enough, the elements of 5S are all Japanese words beginning with the letter S.
Since their adoption within Western implementations of JIT, or Lean Manufacturing,
various anglicized versions of the terms have been adopted by different writers and
52
educators. These are listed below against the individual elements and it can be seen that
none are entirely satisfactory.
There are some symptoms by which we are able to know that we require 5s training
methodology.
The individual items within 5S are known as the "pillars" and are:
1. Seiri (Sort)
It is the series of steps by which we identify things which are being held in the
workplace when they shouldn't, or are being held in the wrong area of the
workplace.
Put simply, we may identify a large area devoted to tools or gauges, some of
which are needed regularly and some used infrequently. This brings all sorts of
problems, including:
53
Operators unable to find the item they need, being unable to see wood for
trees. The time spent searching is a waste (or in Japanese lean-speak a
muda) and if we only held the items needed regularly in a prominent
position we would save time.
Quality issues when gauges are not calibrated on time because too
many are held.
Safety issues when people fall over things.
Lockers and racking cluttering the production area making it hard
for people to move around or to see each other and communicate.
Some of the standard texts also talk about the elimination of excess materials and
WIP.
This is a complete restatement of all the JIT goals of releasing capital, reduced
movement, shorter cycle times and so on. The question may be asked: should we
then see inventory and WIP reduction as part of the implementation of the lean
approach or as an element of 5S? The answer, as ever, is that keeping inventory
and WIP to a minimum is simple best practice. Whether we view it as JIT, or lean,
or 5S or assign any other term is quite frankly irrelevant.
The major element of Seiri is simply a critical look at the area. Involving cross-
functional teams, or getting people to look at each other's areas, is an obvious first
step. People tend to be blind to failings in their own area and a fresh pair of eyes
can be useful.
Another element of the standard approach is 'red tagging' where items are given a
tag which says what the item is, which location it is in and when it was identified
in this location. We then leave the area for a while and anybody using the item
notes this. We go back some time later and can readily identify things that haven't
moved, or been used.
Items which have not been used can then potentially be disposed of. As a first
pass we should perhaps create a quarantine area before throwing items away,
54
selling them or reworking them into something else. Other items may be deemed
necessary but used infrequently and so an alternative location can be found. If the
operator needs a particular tool only once or twice a month then a 20-yard walk is
not a problem - especially if the space thus saved on the workbench helps to make
the area more productive, or helps address quality issues.
The standard translation is Orderliness but again some wish to keep the initial S
and use Sort (yes, that is also one of the translations of Seiri), Set in order,
Straighten and Standardisation.
The sorting out process is essentially a continuation of that described in the Seiri
phase. Removing items to be discarded or held in an alternative location will
create space. This space will be visible and facilitate the alternative layout of the
area.
In some cases, of course, we are talking about what a fitter will have on his bench,
or in racks alongside the bench. In other cases we may be considering where we
should locate a piece of plant - for example we may relocate a coin press to enable
items to be completed in one work area rather than requiring a significant
movement down the shop.
55
kaizen programme, or something else? Again, who cares, as long as we get on and
achieve an improvement in business performance?
Standardization includes all the elements of setting out a consistent way of doing
things. This includes standard manufacturing methodologies, standard equipment
and tooling, component rationalisation, drawing standardisation, consistency in
the documentation which accompanies work, design for manufacture (or
concurrent engineering) and standardisation in the clerical processes which
deliver work to the shop floor and track its progress.
All of this could be said to be part of a basic Total Quality approach. The standard
ways of doing things should include poka-yoke or error-proofing. Again it might
be asked whether this is part of 5S or one aspect of a broader programme.
3. Seiso (Shine)
The principle here is that people are happier and hence more productive in clean,
bright environments.
There is a more practical element in that if everything is clean it is immediately
ready for use.
56
The task is to establish the maintenance of a clean environment as an ongoing,
continuous programme.
Some time should be set aside for cleaning each day, or each shift. (We may have
cleaners who come in a sweep office floors, and even clean the floor in a
production area, but they do not clean the production equipment. Even if they did,
this would miss one of the opportunities available - an operator cleaning and
lubricating his machine tool will spot worn or damaged components.)
Cleaning then begins to impinge upon what we already know as preventive
maintenance.
Cleaning critical components of a piece of equipment is already one element of
the activities carried out under the PM banner.
The implementation of Seiso revolves around two main elements.
The first is the assignment map which identifies who is responsible for which
areas.
The second is the schedule which says who does what at which times and on
which days.
Some of these happen before a shift begins, some during the shift and some at the
end. Again, this is very reminiscent of what we do when adopting PM.
The standard texts such as that of Hiroyuki Hirano then go on to talk about
establishing the shine method for each item / area. This includes such elements as
agreeing an inspection step at the beginning of each shift, establishing exactly
how each activity within the programme is to be carried out. A key aspect is very
much akin to set-up reduction (or SMED) in that we should be aiming as much as
possible to internalise the activities - in other words, to minimise the downtime
needed to keep the facilities clean.
57
Finally the standard texts talk about preparation - making sure the equipment
needed to clean is always available, always ready for use. The best parallel to this
is, again, with set-up reduction, which itself is often compared to Grand Prix
teams preparing to change tyres. As with many such topics, we are talking about
here is to a large extent simply common sense. We do not wish to allocate 5
minutes for a bed to be swept on a piece of grinding equipment if the operator is
going to spend 4 minutes finding his brush.
5s Seiketsu (Standardization)
This is best described as Standardised cleanup, but other names adopted include
Standardisation (not to be confused with the second pillar), Systematisation and
Sanitation.
Seiketsu can be the thought of as the means by which we maintain the first three
pillars.
There is, obviously, a danger in any improvement activity that once the focus is
removed and another 'hot button' grabs management attention, things go back to
the way they were before. Seiketsu is the set of techniques adopted to prevent this
happening. Basically this involves setting a schedule by which all the elements
are revisited on a regular basis - usually referred to as the '5S Job Cycle.'
The first step in the cycle is a periodic review of the area, perhaps involving red
tagging but certainly involving people from other areas of the business.
This will identify where standards have slipped - for example where pieces of
tooling or fixtures which are used infrequently are no longer being put in the
remote location agreed at the outset and consequently a bench is now cluttered
with the regular items buried under a pile of irregular. (In other words, the Seiri
phase is undertaken periodically - usually monthly, perhaps quarterly.)
The second step is to undertake Seiton activities as required - that is, as prompted
by the first step.
58
Finally within Seiketsu people from other areas visit and cast a critical eye over
the state of the area.
Again, an external assessor may notice degradation that is not clear to the people
who work in the area. Hirano talks of a checklist within Seiketsu whereby the
external visitors mark the area on a number of key criteria defined at the outset of
the programme. For example, are the storage areas still clearly defined? Does the
tool rack still have clear outlines or profiles for each tool to be stored in it? Does
the area meet the general standards of cleanliness?
4. Shitsuke (Sustain)
The final stage is that of Discipline. For those who wish to retain the use of initial
S's in English this is often listed as Sustain or Self-discipline.
59
enthusiasm for any sort of initiative aimed at building a better environment is
going to be hard to generate.
Implementing 5S
The elements of 5S are all valuable in their own right but they simply form part of
the bigger picture of establishing best practice. They sit alongside the other
elements of Lean Manufacturing, or Just in Time, or World Class and some of
the elements in, for example, Seiton (standardisation) are in fact straight lifts from
60
textbooks on other forms of improvement activity. There is nothing in any 5S
material, for example, to give guidance on improving the clerical processes for
generating production paperwork following receipt of a sales order!
61
EVALUATION OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT
Evaluation means the assessment of value or worth. Evaluation of training is the act of
judging whether or not it is worthwhile in terms of set criteria. Evaluation of training and
development programmes provides assessment of various methods and techniques, sells
training to management, identities the weaknesses of training programmes and helps to
accomplish the closest possible correlation between the training and the job. A
comprehensive and effective evaluation plan is a critical component of any successful
training programmes. It should be structured to generate information of the impact of
training on the reactions; on the amount of learning that has taken place; on the trainees’
behaviour; and its contribution to the job/ organization. Therefore, evaluation is a
measure of how well training has met the needs of its human resources.
62
METHODS OF TRAINING IN COMPANY
In Apollo Tyres Limited, Delhi. Need based system of importing training is followed.
Training is based on the frequency of defects found during the production. Job
supervisor is vigilantly watching each and every product. If he find any defect in the
product, he instructs the worker to do right way. If no. of worker are doing same mistake,
than all of them are taken in a group and provided training spontaneously & the process
in reurded. This way only defective based training is provided by the company.

In any training program the material plays an important role. So it should be provided.
But the question is that, "when should be the materials be given, before the training or
after the training.” In the responses of such
Question, 30 out of 45 workers say that materials should be given before the training and
15 says that it should be given after the training.
66
3. Before started training programme should you go through any test?
Yes No
A good trainee is essential for the successful completion of any training program. A good
trainee can be selected by the test. So a test is required for selecting appropriate trainees.
Responding this 27 out of 45 workers tell that they don’t want to go through any test and
rest 18 want to go through such test process.
The evolution of any program is very much require for the future. It can be done by
asking the trainees.

So 7, out of 24 trainees want this type of training in every month .On the other hand 9
trainees want such program once in every three month. 5 out of them want to hold such
types of program twice in a year. Rest of them wants to hold this once a year. In my
opinion it should be twice a year.

INTERPRETATIONS
After completion of project on training programs and its effectiveness at Apollo Tyres
Limited , the following inferences are drawn: -
Training system at Apollo Tyres Limited has been good and continuously
progressing in nature.
The training instructions, material and environment are quite good and so
also the employees of Apollo Tyres Limited found that the applicability of
training program is very good.
The employees feel that the training programs increase their knowledge,
skill and potential and help them in both, i.e., in job and personal
development. This shows that there has been a favourable attitude toward
a training program.
73
Employees feel that the chance should be given to every employees and
needs are analyzed based on the requirements of the job and hence training
henceforth.
Apollo Tyres Limited employees of HRD department are fully devoted to their
job.
74
LIMITATIONS
75
LIMITATIONS
1. TIME FACTOR
The study has been completed during a short period of time so it was not possible
2. LACK OF AWARENESS
The employee has low awareness level about the initiatives and practices by which
There are inabilities to gather information from all the hierarchy levels of
organization. Sample size has been taken 15 for officers , 100 for the workers .
76
SUGGESTIONS
77
SUGGESTIONS
There is no gainsay regarding the training programs enhance the quality of the
performance. No one is perfect in his respective field. A full flazed training program
makes trainees complete performer in their respective areas.
Every company looks for a worker, who can work effectively. They are in search of a
person who has the maximum skills required for the job. After selecting the right person,
the company’s main aim is to make that person a perfect workman. For this they provide
them training.
First of all the management should look for that areas where workers needs training. For
this purpose management should keep eyes on each and every activity of the workers and
staffs whosoever may need training. This is a long and time taking process. In this way
the next step would be to select the trainees. There should develop a mechanism for
selecting the trainees. There should be a test for this purpose. This will give the idea about
the weak and strong points of trainees. It will be very fruitful in designing the contents of
training program.
The printed material is very useful in training. These materials should be given before the
training. Written material would provide the overall idea about the training and make the
trainees understand better.
Before developing the training contents some points should be taken care of. There should
be some practical values in that. The training should include new ideas and should be
helpful in the development of trainees. It must be relevant to the hob of workers and
staffs. In the training process the efficient use of time should be made as time is the most
important factor in any job.
78
The frequency of training program is according to the requirement and convenience of the
trainees as well as the management. Workers require more training so they need one in
every six month. Staffs required less training in the compression of workers, so they
required at least on training program every year.
The duration of any event is the most important, which maker any program successful or
fail. It should be according to the needs of the trainees of participants. In my opinion the
duration of the training would be 16 hours.
79
CONCLUSIONS
80
CONCLUSIONS
Training is a costly affair for the management. It needs a handsome amount and long
time. So management has to play safe game for the benefits of the company as well as the
workers. One wrong decision may enforce the company to fall into deep troubles. So
selecting the weak areas of staffs and workers should be done very carefully. For that the
management should be conduct a test.
To conclude, it is very clear that training should be provided but not at the loss of the
company. It is very costly and time taking affair. But it is most important for the
development of the company. So management can’t avoid it at any cost.
