Description
Summary:Fundamental to today’s knowledge economy is how organizations foster learning and at the same time obtaining and retaining knowledge from their workers. The rapid pace of change in what workers need to know, the growth of the Internet, and the accelerated global competition, all contribute to the requirement that organisations should efficiently and continuously provide its workers with appropriate and suitable training. As asserted by Wild et.al (2002), training is no longer seen as an extravagance after a good year of profits, but as a necessity in order to keep up with competitors. However, unlike normal practices, sending employees away for training, is no longer practical.
