Training and Development Practice
Read and reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Then post what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding in each assigned textbook chapter.
Your initial post should be based upon the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text. Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in your discussion.
Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:
E-learning creates a situation in which training may be quite different from that which existed in the past. What might be some pros and cons for using e-learning in training and development practice?
Of the various training and development delivery systems discussed in the text this week, which do you feel is the best? Which do you feel is the worse? Explain why you choose each of these.
What are some metrics for evaluating training and development? Why is it important for a firm to conduct career development?
How is the focus on training and development in the United States different than in other countries?
[Your post must be substantive and demonstrate insight gained from the course material. Postings must be in the student’s own words – do not provide quotes!]
[Your initial post should be at least 450+ words and in APA format (including Times New Roman with font size 12 and double spaced). Post the actual body of your paper in the discussion thread then attach a Word version of the paper
