This report is a vital part of the subject Training and Development MBA (HRM) 3st
semester. It is based on the training programme which we were asked to develop just to
experience real life practices involved in training, in order to bridge the gap between the
theoretical and the actual for better comprehension and knowledge of different aspects of
this field.
The main purpose of this report is to design a training programme which was suppose to
choose the topic TIME MANAGEMENT. Training program involves different stages that
starts with the problem identification and ends with the post training feedback from the
targeted audience which were the upper and middle level employees of the organization.
Objectives were set for the training programme and areas were identified which had to be
covered. Different training techniques including Case Study , Buzz groups, A talk or
lecture, Handouts and reference material were used. Session design and session guide
were prepared to make it easy for the trainer. In the end a training feedback form was
“In the name of Allah most gracious and merciful who bestowed His blessings upon
me in every hurdle during hard times”
Designing a Training Programme is indeed really a hard job to do, which requires sincere
efforts for accomplishment. Therefore those who have helped me out, supported me and
guided me in anyway cannot be ignored for heartily regards and bundle of thanks.
Sir.Mussawir was Among those whose kind supervision was constantly motivating me
and whose encouragement enabled me to work on the assignment. I heartily say thanks to

A TALK OR LECTURE
A lecture is where you stand in front of your audience and deliver the material by talking
to them.
USE OF TALK OR LECTURE
A talk consists of three parts:
i) Preparation ii) Presentation iii) Summary
PREPARATION
It takes at least twice as long to prepare a talk as it does to give it, even when you
know your subject thoroughly
Never plan to speak for more than 20 minutes. Break up longer sessions with other
techniques and aids like films.
Do not pack too much information into one session
Plan when you are going to allow questions
Prepare your visual aids and the layout of your flipchart or writing surface
Even if you have given your talk a number of times before, you should read your
notes and recast your material each time to keep it fresh.
