Systematic training

Training should be systematic in that it is specifically 

designed, planned and implemented to meet defined 

needs. It is provided by people who know how to 

train and the impact of training is carefully evaluated. 

The concept was originally developed for the indus-

trial training boards in the 1960s and, as illustrated 

in Figure 23.4, consists of a simple four-stage model:

1 

Identify training needs.

2 

Decide what sort of training is required to 

satisfy these needs.

3 

Use experienced and trained trainers to 

implement training.

4 

Follow up and evaluate training to ensure 

that it is effective.
