COURSE INTRODUCTION
Organizations are made up of people: their knowledge, skills, attitudes and
interconnections. Without people there is nothing except a legal fiction frozen
in time. In order to survive and thrive, organizations need to facilitate the
growth of all of these as part of a knowledge management strategy. Human
Resource Development (HRD) is a key activity that systematically leads to the
development (often selfdevelopment) of people in organizations, and makes
organizations more effective. The course will focus on the role of HRD staff
and on line management in designing and implementing appropriate
strategies in line with the business goals of their organization.
Topics covered in this course will include: training needs assessment, the
development of specific training objectives, the planning and delivery of
instruction, relevant learning principles, and the development and
implementation of criteria and procedures for evaluation of training.
