Cooperative Training
First Post—Module 3
A common form of training is cooperative training. There are
two widely used cooperative training methods: internships and apprentice
training. In both forms of training, there is a combination of classroom
training (formal education) and on-the-job training (experience) that can be
used for career development. Based on your experiences, discuss the added value
of cooperative training. How do we as HRM professionals objectively determine
the “value” of cooperative training? Then, discuss the problems of
cooperative training that should be taken into consideration by human resource
professionals. Finally, make a recommendation as to how cooperative training
can be assessed and used for succession planning.
