The correct answer is option (4)- B and E only.
Computer modelling, Programmed Instructions, Films, Conferences are the method of off the job training.
Training is any process by which the aptitudes, skills and abilities of employees to perform specific jobs are increased. There are various methods of training. These are broadly categorised into two groups: On-the-Job and Off-the-Job methods. On the Job Methods (i) Apprenticeship Programs (ii) Coaching (iii) Internship Training (iv) Job Rotation Off the Job Methods (i) Class Room Lectures/Conferences (ii) Films (iii) Case Study (iv) Computer Modelling (v) Vestibule Training (vi) Programmed Instruction
- Computer Modelling: It simulates the work environment by programming a computer to imitate some of the realities of the job and allows learning to take place without the risk or high costs that would be incurred if a mistake were made in real life situation.
- Films: They can provide information and explicitly demonstrate skills that are not easily represented by the other techniques. Used in conjunction with conference discussions, it is a very effective method in certain cases.
- Conference- The conference approach is well adapted to conveying specific information, rules, procedures or methods. The use of audio-visuals or demonstrations can often make a formal classroom presentation more interesting while increasing retention and offering a vehicle for clarifying more difficult points.
- Programmed Instruction: This method incorporates a prearranged and proposed acquisition of some specific skills or general knowledge. Information is broken into meaningful units and these units are arranged in a proper way to form a logical and sequential learning package i.e. from simple to complex. The trainee goes through these units by answering questions or filling the blanks.
