Training “is a learning process that involves the acquisition of knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to successfully perform a job.”(9thHRM) Education has a long history from past, present and future. Training is a very important aspect in today's human resources world. In my current position I train new hires and take numerous training courses. I really enjoy training and am excited to explain the concepts of training from the beginning and what it could be in the future. Education started in the early days in a simple way, when adults showed children how to do things. Learning things like making a fire, hunting, and cooking are just a few of the many things children have been trained to do by adults. “Excellence is an art that is achieved through training and habit. We do not act righteously because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have them because we have acted righteously. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit.” (Aristotle) As early as 300 BC Socrates “engaged his students by asking questions.” (GP) In 2000 BC the training entered apprenticeship to the scribes in Egypt. An “apprenticeship is a system of training a new generation of professionals in a skill”. (WK) In the Middle Ages training became more complicated and knowledge and skill became more and more complex. In the complexity of the time, children were sent to craftsmen who taught them a skill and a special tool for a certain craft. Scholasticism was started by Pierre Abelard, considered "one of the forerunners of learner-based education in which students use different methods to judge and arrive at real meaning of evidence." (S) Then in 1800 came the formation of the vestibule. which in other words is close to professional training. Vestibule training is a combination of classroom training and on-the-job training. I find training in the vestibule very fascinating because it is an example of what your work situation will be like. Training in the vestibule therefore does not interfere with actual production in the factory. In 1910, role-playing began. At the company where I currently work, our training department strongly believes in role-playing. Role playing is “a technique used in the learning process to provide participation and involvement in the learning process.” (RP) Role-playing is a great way to learn “diagnose interactive skills, provide models and exercises, and motivate people to pay.” greater attention to their interpersonal impact.
