Question

difference between training and development

Answer 1

Training                                                         Development

Short-term focus/Task Oriented                     Long-term focus/Skills oriented

Group based (more often than not)                Individually based

Focuses on the “today” needs                       Leads to the “tomorrow” results

Compliance area strength                               Opportunities to develop strategic approach

Other items that my small group noted were:

Information versus values                               Targeted to the individual; growth after training

5%                                                                   95%

Knowledge                                                      Expansion

For today                                                         For tomorrow

Short-term                                                       Long-term

Task-oriented                                                  Skill-oriented

Piece of development                                      Holistic
