For organisations to thrive, their employees need to be trained and developed. The training must be specific and targeted to the benefit of both the individual employee and the organisation they serve. The training and development can be for the development of the individual which will directly benefit the organisation. In reverse, whole organisations can be targeted for development which in turn also benefits the individual employee. Schools are no exemption. During the implementation of training and development, the individual teachers gain through enhanced and accelerated career advancement, their leadership skills and knowledge will be boosted, and they will also develop supervisory skills to mentor those serving under them. It is incumbent upon organisations like schools to invest heavily in the development and upskilling of their teachers to benefit from organisational growth and advancement based on such an exercise. The implementation of training and development programmes is not an easy task, but one that requires careful planning and management. Departmental heads will gain immensely if such programmes are implemented in their schools. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
