Difference between Training and Development?

Answer Posted / divya

Training generally refers to teaching of new skill in
professional field of the employee. Like an employee being
taught to operate another machine, or to perform a new
operation in the same machine.

Development refers to enhancement of personal qualities of
the employee which do not have a one to one relationship
with his current job. It may be to help an employee to grow.
Like stress management techniques, yoga lessons, meditation
exercises, soft skills training, etc.

While training is expected to reward the company immediately
in terms of better productivity of employee, Development
does not lead to any immediate and tangible benefits to the
company.
