Unit 5: Training Implementation




          5.   Infrastructure available and required: If the required infrastructure is already available in  Notes
               the company, then consider developing in-house.
          6.   Time deadlines: What is the time available and required? If the learning is time sensitive
               and  sufficient time is not available for training, the  entire group  of identified  people
               within in the available time, then consider outsourcing.

          3.   A programme can be implemented in three major ways namely by buying, making and

          5.2 Implementation of In-house Programme


          In the event of deciding to conduct the training programme  in-house, the challenge of full
          implementation emerges. The entire gamut of implementation activities can be classified into
          blocking  the dates, mobilizing the resources, managing the contingencies  and executing the
          programme. Figure below shows the activities involved in training implementation.

          5.2.1 Blocking the Dates

          Training implementation function begins with blocking appropriate dates once the design is
          ready. There are so many stakeholders  involved in  a training  activity like  the trainees, the
