QUALIFICATIONS TRAINING: DEVISING A STRATEGIC CORPORATE POLICY
Abstract
Training is a form of investment in human capital. As with other forms of investments, employers, understandably, expect returns on their investment in human capital. Dealing with employees′ requests for qualifications training poses a major problem for many employers. This is because, in very many cases, qualifications training courses are general, and are not geared to the specific needs of a particular employer. Furthermore, qualifications training enhances an employee′s mobility within the labour market. While many employers are aware of these points, they also realize that employees are less likely to become frustrated and leave if opportunities for further training and development are available within the organization. Drawing on the practice in some organizations, offers a framework which will enable employers to devise a strategic qualifications training policy.
