Agriculture and rural development Organizations are facing great pressure to change these days to facilitate and encourage whole-person development and fulfillment - beyond traditional training. More importantly, training - or learning from the trainee’s view - is anything offering learning and developmental experience. Training and learning development includes aspects such as: ethics and morality; attitude and behavior; leadership and determination, as well as skills and knowledge.Rural Development isn’t restricted to training - it’s anything that helps a person to grow, in ability, skills, confidence, tolerance, commitment, initiative, inter-personal skills, understanding, self-control, motivation, and more attributes of effective people, such as leaders, managers, operators, technicians, the important qualities which make good performers special are likely to be attitudinal. Skills and knowledge, and the processes available to people, are no great advantage. What makes people effective and valuable to any organization is their attitude. Training and development, when properly implemented, attempt to facilitate change in employees’ knowledge and skill.
