OTHER OPTIONS

  • Job rotation: Job Rotation involves shifting the trainee from one department to another or from one job to another. This enables the trainee to gain a broader understanding of all parts of the business and how the organisation as a whole functions. The trainee gets fully involved in the departments operations and also gets a chance to test her own aptitude and ability.
  • Apprenticeship programme: Apprenticeship programmes put the trainee under the guidance of a master worker. These are designed to acquire a higher level of skill. People seeking to enter skilled jobs, to become, for example, plumbers, electricians or iron-workers, are often required to undergo apprenticeship training. These apprentices are trainees who spend a prescribed amount of time working with an experienced guide, or trainer.
  • Induction training is used to introduce new employees to the company and its general policies and procedures. It is not specifically designed to address skill deficits or provide hands-on training with machinery.
