The course explores some major theories on criminal and deviant behaviour. The course aims to introduce you to the study of criminology and to help you understand the dynamics of crime and criminal behaviour.

In the discipline of human resource management, training and development is the field concerned with organisational activity aimed at improving the performance of individuals and groups in organisational settings. Education, training, and development have been referred to as employee development, human resource development, and learning and development. Employee education, training, and development at the right time, ensure big payoffs for the employer in the form of increased productivity, knowledge, loyalty, and employee contributions.

People are the most important treasure in any organisation. How we lead, motivate, train and develop  employees is of utmost importance. To remain competitive, organisations need to have well motivated and highly performing employees. This can be achieved by training and developing employees.

This course exposes you to how to manage training in organisations, the factors that affect training environments, and how to determine training needs.

Enjoy the course. Remember: What we learn with joy, we never forget.
