The training program is broadly categorized into (a) on-the-job training where the training is conducted at the place of the job and (b) off-the-job training where the training is conducted away from the normal work setting.
The table shows the Training methods and techniques used

On-the-job training (OJT):
1) Job Instruction Training (JIT)
JIT is an On Job Training Method, where the trainer
uses a sequence of instructional procedures to train employees while they work
in their assigned job.
The process of JIT includes four steps.
Step 1 Prepare the worker
a. Put trainee at ease
b. Find out what trainee knows
c Motivate
d. Set up the task
Step 2: Present the task
a. Tell
b. Show
c. Explain
d. Demonstrate·
Step 3: Practice
a. Have the trainee perform the task(s)
b. Have the trainee explain the steps
c Give feedback on performance
d. Reinforce correct behaviour
Step 4:Follow up
a. Allow the trainee to perform on his or her own
b. Encourage questioning
c. Check performance periodically
d. Gradually taper off training
Job rotation is the approach where the trainee is provided opportunities to perform a series of different assignments and to learn key roles, policies, and procedures for a specified period.
