Training and development Training and Development basically deals with the acquisition of
understanding, knowhow, techniques and practices. In fact, training and development is one of
the imperatives of human resource management as it can improve performance at individual,
collegial and organizational levels. As the process of ‘increasing one’s capacity to take action,
organizations are now increasingly becoming particular with organizational learning and
therefore collective development. Organizational learning, on the other hand, refers to the
“efficient procedure to process, interpret and respond to both internal and external information of
a predominantly explicit nature. According to Easter by-Smith (1999), the emergence of the
concept of organizational learning is central on the hitherto idea that prior advocacies of learning
are tended to its commercial significance and are lacking of empirical information on learning
processes.
Strategically, organizational learning, which makes use of training and development as one of
the several responses, deals with the acquisition of understanding, know-how, techniques and
practices. These intellectual intangibles can be translated into an organizational resource through
the people that acquire, infer and utilize such towards the achievement of the organization-wide
training and development (Armstrong, 2006). Training and development are planned learning
experiences which teach employees how to perform current and future jobs more effectively.
Sims (2002) emphasizes that training focuses on present jobs while development prepares
employees for possible future jobs. Basically, the objective of training and development is to
contribute to the organization's overall goal.

Methodology
We will develop basic accomplishments for the study of effects of sales and promotions
on the consumer purchase behavior. It describes the way by which a consumer is
influenced by sales and promotion in their behavior of purchasing. In this regard we will
identify different variables that may influence the consumer behavior regarding sales and
promotion
Research Methodology
We will focus to observe the fact about behavior of purchasing at a micro level that it allows us
to draw a result about the effect of sales and promotion on consumers purchasing decision. Some
of the questions that must be answered by the researchers are:
Is there any influence of sales and promotions on the consumer’s buying decision?
Are there any household characteristics that may give us an idea about the difference
in displaying consumer behavior?
Is the household promotional response similar across different categories of a
product?
Are these similarities being explained in a better manner by household
characteristics?
Two way approaches is being used by us to answer these questions:
First of all we will identify different drivers related to household promotional
response.
Then investigation of sales and promotion reaction mechanism that will help to constitute
household promotion response.
