Describe each of the major training delivery types: on-the-job training, classroom training, distance learning, and simulations

What will be an ideal response?


On-the-job training (OJT) is done at the work site with the resources the employee uses to perform the job, and it is conducted one-on-one with the trainee. In classroom training, the organization creates a training course and provides a qualified instructor to teach the class in a single location at a specific time. Distance learning, also called e-learning, allows the students to sign in to the training site and provides materials to them for their studies. There’s typically less interaction between an instructor and trainee than in OJT or classroom training. Simulations mimic a real-life situation to teach students what actions to take in the event that they encounter the same or a similar situation in their job.
