Answer

Vestibule Training:

Vestibule training is the most common off-the-job training method. The word 'vestibule' means a room between the outer door and the interior of a building. In this method, workers are trained in a classroom or hall within the plant. A large number of workers are trained under the guidance of expert trainers. The same machines and equipment as used at the workplace are used in the vestibule training room.

Advantages:

  • Permits greater emphasis on teaching the best method of work.
  • Trainees get accustomed to the work routine and overcome initial nervousness.
  • Training does not hamper actual work of production.
  • Trainees can better concentrate on learning.

Disadvantage: Vestibule training is very expensive.

Lecture Method:

Under the lecture method, managers and employees attend lectures, seminars, and conferences to learn new ideas and latest developments in their field. Sometimes, executives attend courses and classes in management institutes and universities to refresh their knowledge and learn new concepts.

The lecture method is suitable for imparting theoretical knowledge to a large group of trainees in a short time. It is used to explain concepts, principles, theories, and the latest developments in the field. The method is economical and allows for quick coverage of a large amount of information. However, it is mostly one-way communication and may not give trainees enough opportunity for active learning.
