A careful survey has been made of the material already published and available on the subject of training programs, consisting of a historical background of training, consideration of the placing of the responsibility to see that the employee is properly trained, and a detailed discussion on the different types of training programs. Case studies have been made of several selected industries and personal interviews made with management and training officials to determine their attitude toward training. An evaluation has been made as to the justification of training programs, pointing out some of their weaknesses and suggesting possible solutions.115 leavesBTDapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightLD5655.V855 1960.H868Educational evaluationManual trainingThesishttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-11092012-040044/
