– HR talk: Training and development: Everyone's responsibility, Posted by Paul Nyausaru

In the article about "Training and development: Everyone's responsibility" the writer sheds light on workplace training and tools, how important adequate training is and the benefits associated with it for both employee and employer. The writer also talks about responsibility to keep in line and up to date with training, the role that managers and employees play in deciding what the training needs are and how to cope with them.
