Training involves teaching new employees basic job skills, while development refers to opportunities to help employees grow. At Motorola, training and development needs are calculated as standard performance minus actual performance. Motorola established its university in 1989 and pioneered self-directed learning using tools like audio tapes, videos, and CD-based training. Training programs are implemented by organizing training facilities, scheduling programs, and monitoring trainees, while evaluations assess strengths, improvement areas, and identify high- and low-performing trainees. Some external training agencies include Safety Skills, Cubiks, Element K, and Mentorware.
