TASK 2
2.1
Systematic Approach to Training(SAT)
Time to time upgrade the skill of employees and get them updated training is required to brush
ups their skills. Systematic approach of training is a kind of formal training to improve their
employees performances. It depends on the requirement and design accordingly. It includes
organisation's aim
analysis the need of training
 Settings aim
 Learning objectives
 Designing strategies Implementation
Organisational training need- Training for Pizza express restaurants, if human resource
department found some need of improvement in the organisational basis they provide the
training for that could be depend on any learning style which is suitable for the need. It includes
systematic planning, analysis and coordination across the organisation (Bennett and Ho, 2015).
Organisational training may have takes much time and investment too. Organisation need to
ensure that resource invested in the training are targeted at the area where training and
development is needed (Stone and Dulebohn, 2013).
Departmental training- After the organisation, individual departments take place. There
are many departments in any organisation, like Pizza express restaurant having many branches
all over the UK so that management must care for test according to the place. If we took the
marketing department for an example, there is need of update the employee or marketer about
the trends (Mondy and Martocchio, 2016). As they marketing for the Pizza express restaurant
and it is a food restaurant so that marketing manager of restaurant have to know about its
customer potentiality in which restaurant know about the trend and its competitors who are
already in the market with the same product. So that they conduct the departmental training for
the marketers to improve their skill of marketing online throughout the world (Akingbola, 2013).

Individuals training- the small unit if organisation is employee and human resource
department provides training to the individuals to improve their skills according to their work.
For an example designing department of Pizza express wants to launch a new food series for the
country that are not a part of Europe and they are form different culture, so they provide training
to their cook about the culture of this country and trends what they have (Shaw, Park and Kim,
2013).
2.2
Off the Job training
Lecturing and discussion Method is a very old and popular method of learning in off job
method. In this trainer's comes with large amount of knowledge and experiences in front of large
audience. Though it is it takes short time but it is not possible that the people you have got each
and every thing which is explained. It is not as effective as demonstrative method is. It requires
effective speakers and good listeners (Jiang and et.al., 2012).
Advantages and disadvantages
Every method having its positive and negative both part that assist to use the training
method or not. In Pizza express restaurant, lecturing and discussion method can be use and its
impact create in effective manner. This method having advantage because trainer provide them
lot of knowledge to their trainees. On the other hand it may negatively impacted when trainee not
able to catch the trainer knowledge.
On the job training
Demonstration Method is On Job method of training goes step by steps, it provides the
ability of see, inhale and participate to the participants. Though It is a kind of practical training
but it takes time and cost. Learning through demonstration is effective to the trainees to see the
thing practically is good and quick to learn tasks but it has a risk too, because it is not possible
for the trainer to demonstrate the task in front of large amount of trainees (Training Methods: On
Job Training and off the Job Training Methods. 2016).
Advantages and disadvantages
If training manager of Pizza express restaurant can take demonstrate methods so that they
able to know about its employee ability with very closely. This method is also helpful for
knowing attitude of their cooks towards the training sections. On the other hand, it is also having
2

drawback in which they are not able to provide training to all that present cook (.Ramanathan
and Ramanathan, 2013).
There are many methods of training are existed for the restaurants, that are varies on
needs of individuals, whole organisation, or the task being performed. The factors which affect
the training methods can be age, level of education, learning style and budget.
