Employee Training: A Study of Theories and Practices
(Indiana University Southeast, 2023-04) Isaacs, Charles
In Human Resource Management, training is a highly complex and ever-evolving field of study. A great deal of time and energy is spent by a firm understanding what its training needs are, not only to adequately train its new employees, but also to give it a competitive advantage in its respective marketplace. This should, in theory, aid the overall success of the firm. This study was undertaken to understand how firms develop new hire training programs and to understand the importance certain firms place on developing new hire training. It also seeks to understand how these views fit into established human resource management theories and approaches to training. The study began with no predetermined views on where the data would lead. The goal of this study was to collect data and see how the various theories lined up with the participating firm's views and goals for its further, it is important to understand the background of the three theories/practices that will guide this research.
