    New advancement in technology based training

    "Computer Based Training" is a process of learning that is notexecuted in the traditional manner one would find in the educationalenvironment. Rather than the conventional classroom and instructor or

    professor setting, computer based training, for example changemanagement tools involves learning using software applicationsinstalled in computers. The student is, in effect, trained by the computer.Oftentimes, this method of learning can be much more effective than the

    practice of teaching and learning in classrooms because the student, ifworking alone, can set his or her own speed of learning. As such, thestudent that is a quick learner can forge ahead at a pace that an average

    student would not be able to handle. On the other hand, for those thattake a little more time than the average student to process and learn newinformation, computer based training would be ideal, as they can go attheir own stride, not fall behind and not keep any other students behindschedule..

    Benefits or CBT-Training

    Like no other training form, CBT-learning promises to provide asingle experience that accommodates the tree distinct learning

    styles of auditory learners, visual learners, and kinesthetic learners. More efficient training of a geographically dispersed audience; and

    reduced publishing and distribution costs as web-based trainingbecomes a standard

    E-learning also offers flexible and individualized instruction,which print media cannot provide, at great cost reduction.

    In conjunction with assessing need, e-learning courses can targetspecific business performance needs.

    Synchronous e-learning is self-placed. Advanced learners areallowed to sped through or bypass instruction that is redundantwhile novices slow their own progress through content, eliminatingfrustration with themselves, their fellow learners, and the course.

    Well-delivered synchronous e-training education and technologylike message boards, chats, e-mail, and tale-conferencing enhancesthe learning value significantly.

    Advantages to Learners and Students

    Along with the increased retention, reduced learning time, particularadvantages of e-training includes

    On-demand availability enables students to complete trainingconveniently at off-hours or from home.

    Self-pacing for slow or quick learners reduces stress and increasessatisfaction.

    Interactivity engages users, pushing them rather than pulling themthrough training.

    Confidence that refresher or quick reference materials are availablereduces burden of responsibility of mastery.

    Student support procedures and monitoring systems are constantlyapplied.

    Disadvantages to the learner and students

    Technology issues of the learners are most commonlytechnophobia and unavailability of required technologies.

    Portability of training has become strength of e-learning with the proliferation of network linking points, notebook computers,PDAs, and mobile phones, but still does not rival that of printedworkbooks or reference material.

    Reduced social and cultural interaction can be a drawback. Theimpersonality, suppression of communication mechanism such as

    body language, and elimination of peer-to-peer learning that arepart of this potential disadvantage are lessening with advances incommunication technologies.

    Advantages to Organization

    Reduced overall cost in the single most influential factor inadopting e-learning.

    The elimination of costs associated with instructors salaries,meeting room rentals, and student travel, lodging, and meals aredirectly quantifiable. The reduction of time spent away from the

    job by employees may be the most positive cost reduction Consistent delivery of content is possible with asynchronous, self-

    paced e-learning.

    Expert knowledge is communicated, but more importantlycaptured, with good e-learning and knowledge managementsystems.

    Proof of completion and certification, essential elements oftraining initiatives, can be automated.

    Disadvantages to the organization

    CBT-learning is not, however, the be all and end all to every trainingneed. It does how limitations, among them

    Up-front investment required of an e-learning solution is larger dueto development costs. Budgets and cash flows will need to be

    negotiated. Technology issues that play a factor include whether the existing

    technology infrastructure can accomplish the training goals,whether additional tech expenditures can be justified, and whethercompatibility of all software and hardware can be achieved.

    Inappropriate content for e-learning may exist according to someexperts, through are limited in number. Even the acquisition ofskills that involve complex physical/motor emotional or emotional

    components (for example, juggling or mediation) can beaugmented with e-learning

    Cultural acceptance is an issue in organizations where studentdemographics and psychographics may predispose them againstusing computers at all, let alone for e-learning

    CBT can reduce resource requirements

    In traditional training process the trainer should complete the training

    within a particular period. The training process may take more than theresource requirements. But with CBT:-

    You can have a higher trainee-to-trainee ratio, where the instructorserves as facilitator, assisting trainees as needed.

    There is less need for a centralized training facility. Facilitators canserve more than one company with CBT programmed, lesseningthe investment each company world have to make.

    The average time taken to a particular lesson can be reduced with

    CBT because some trainees may take less time and more traineesmay take more time because of their understanding of the lesson.

    CBT can improve job performance

    In traditional training all trainees may not be able to follow the trainercorrespondingly. Come trainees may need more time to get good

    performance in a particular lesson. But with CBT:-

    The trainer can continue on the lesson as long as he/she does notget the good performance on the lesson

    Trains people in specific skills for specific performance.

    Trains people in general skills that broadly effect generalperformance.

    Provides increased access to information tools for decision making

    Organizations where these have been implemented

    Retail/FMCG Sector is the most booming sector in the Indian economyand is expected to reach US$ 175-200 billion by 2016. With this rapidexpansion and coming up of major players in the sector, the need ofhuman resource development has increased. Lack of skilled workers isthe major factor that is holding back the retail sector for high growth.The sector is facing the severe shortage of trainers. Also, the current

    Education Industries

    The challenges that education institutes of today face are to control andreduce costs and yet at the same time impart quality education to an ever

    growing and diverse student population. CBT provides them with a costeffective means of achieving their goals. From static web pages forcampus brochures to online course catalogues and now online tests andvirtual class rooms, the role and use of internet in education and traininghas increased manifold. CBT enables institutes to reach out to morestudents and provides them with a means to supplement their traditionalmeans of instruction. Education institutes can make use of theadvancements and innovations in technology to automate their

    administrative processes thereby enabling them to create a centralizedinformation and knowledge repository and improve communication andinteraction between students and faculty.

    CBT has made it possible for organizations as well as educationalinstitutes to evaluate and assess the skills and performance of employeesand students in an easy and efficient manner. The online mode of testingreduces the time and effort required to conduct offline tests.

    CBT IN PHARMA

    Core Competency Training & Services Private Limited was establisheda decade ago with a customer centric approach to provide variedsolutions and services to regulated industries, particularly

    pharmaceutical drug manufacturing, biotech, medical devices and

    marine Industry. Our key area of expertise is the application of CBT toassist regulated industries in meeting their training and productivity needin the areas such as operations, compliance, equipment, processes andmaintenance.

    With the worldwide expansion of companies and changing technologies,the demands for knowledge and skilled employees have increased morethan ever, which in turn, is putting pressure on HR department to

    provide training at lower costs. Many organizations are now

    implementing CBT as an alternative to classroom based training toaccomplish those goals.

    Conclusion

    Online training may revolutionize corporate education, but it still hassome bugs: Employees like the convenience, but miss the face-to face

    interaction. Teaching employees online-using everything from self-paced, web-based tutorials to video-conference, instructor led classes-isfaster and more flexible than traditional corporate training

    programmers. Its easier to upgrade: you can update course materialswith the click of a mouse. It can be cheaper and offerings cover thegamut, from technical know-how to operational techniques to soft sillslike leadership development. Of course, E-Training has itsshortcomings. While just about every company that implements E-

    training say cutting costs is a big draw, the savings are not always thatsignificant. Moreover, not all workers are receptive to it.
