Finally, a Practical Guide for On the Job Training
I was completing my graduate degree when I started a search for sound practical material related to on the job training. (OJT) Much of what I found was weak, until I came across Dr. Rothwell's book. This is an excellent book for someone responsible for OJT directly or even indirectly, ex. a Human Resources Manager. Dr. Rothwell provides a very clear and easy to follow...

Disappointing
I was disappointed in this book. It's 10 years old (almost), so references to studies in the 1970's and 1980's seem outdated, leading me to doubt their applicability. I found Gary Sisson's "Hands-On Training" much more helpful for my training needs, and a better use of my company's money.

This review is from: Improving On-the-Job Training: How to Establish and Operate a Comprehensive OJT Program (The Jossey-Bass Management) (Hardcover)
I was completing my graduate degree when I started a search for sound practical material related to on the job training. (OJT) Much of what I found was weak, until I came across Dr. Rothwell's book.This is an excellent book for someone responsible for OJT directly or even indirectly, ex. a Human Resources Manager. Dr. Rothwell provides a very clear and easy to follow format for establishing or fixing a broken OJT system. I'm an HR Manager, and I used Dr. Rothwell's book as a part of a training program for our employee trainers who train our new and existing employees. They would read material assigned from the book and then make application to problems we experienced in our training. Using a facilitative style of training, in addition to the book for follow-up, provided for a good transfer of learning. I highly recommend this for someone willing to put the effort into implementing or repairing an existing OJT process.
