Developing People Pocketbook: 3rd EditionAuthor Ian Fleming directs the 'Developing People Pocketbook' at full time trainers and managers with staff training as part of their jobs. He deals with training needs identification, the pros and cons of different training methods, learning styles and learning blocks, finding and briefing external trainers, assessing the outcome and applying the learning. Reviewing an earlier edition of this title, Training Education Employment Journal wrote: 'A worthy overview of training needs identification, design, delivery and evaluation. Read this and you could save many hours ploughing through far less accessible tomes on the subject'. |
