INTRODUCTIONIn the present scenario, it has become necessary for organisations to give dueconsideration to the human resources and managing them in an effectual manner so that they canbe kept satisfied. It is because; with the existing rivalry among organisations and entry of newcompetitor firms at a fast rate, employees are having chances to switch over to other companies(Healthfield, 2016). Thus, to retain them in the long run with making them satisfied, humanresource management plays one of the most important roles now-a-days. Under the same,training and development is considered as an essential part that highly helps in keeping theworkforce motivated and thus, retained in the organisation for longer span of time (Guest, 2011).In the present report, there will be discussion on the different learning theories and styles alongwith understanding the government-led skills development initiatives with respect to the givenscenario People R Us as well as Sun Court Residential Homes Ltd. In addition to this, study willbe made on planning and designing training and development event with making evaluation ofthe same.TASK 11.1 Comparing different learning stylesEvery person is different from the other and so as their styles of learning. However, it canalso be said that an individual is not restricted to only one learning style as they can becomfortable with more than one. There are some styles of learning which are in parallel withspecific circumstances (Healthfield, 2016). Therefore, it helps in making it impossible for anindividual to have different styles of learning that can be used in different situations. In order tounderstand the relative concepts easily, it is significant for individuals to adopt different learningtechniques.There are several intuitive factors and behaviour with which the learning techniques getinfluenced. However, they differ from one person to another. Sometimes, it is seen that peoplecontrol their behaviour however, if at once, it gets changed, with the same, complete work wouldget affected (Bondarouk and Ruël, 2009). For example, in Sun Court Residential Homes Ltd.,under training program being conducted for making the workforce re-train, firm can use thislearning technique. It will be useful at the time when individuals will be made aware regarding1

changing from a generalist to a specialism care home. These are being taught to them so that theywould be able to understand the upcoming change in a better way as well as take the sameseriously (Bratton and Gold, 2012). Among all learning styles, visual learning is the one which involves understanding newknowledge with the help of making use of visual devices.For example, in the training programorganised by Sun Court Residential Homes Ltd., this learning style can get involved with thehelp of which new recruits would easily understand and remember what actually is desired fromthem i.e. to provide specialist services for treating dementia. However, another useful learningstyle in kinaesthetic under which an individual learn the work which practically doing the sameand thus, it can be termed as a more practical approach (Budhwar and Debrah, 2013). Therefore,to make new hired candidates learn the way of running operations, firm can use this learningstyle for them. This will be helpful in making employee learn the procedures of safety and healthas they would need to be more practical when working on the procedures. However, there aresome other learning styles too like; aural and verbal. There are some individuals who prefer tolearn by using sound and music in what has been taught to them and on the other hand, as perverbal style of learning, individuals learns if they are being said with using words both in speechas well as in the written form (Jiang and et.al., 2012). 1.2 Role of learning curve and the importance of transferring learning to the workplaceA graph in which the total time spent on learning in against of consent of abilities can betermed as the learning curve. Under the same, shifting pace and progress of learning style beingshown and defined within a short period of time. For instance – at the time when a person is on asteep learning curve, it reflects that he/she is making efforts to grab a lot of knowledge within ashort duration of time (Khan, Khan and Khan, 2011). With the same, ability of an employee canbe effectually measured for the purpose of completing a given task that Sun Court ResidentialHomes Ltd. is performing in its training program. By having a clear understanding regardingdifferent learning styles of employees, cited firm can plot a proper training program in order tore-train the workforce to change from a generalist to a specialism care home (Knowles, HoltonIII and Swanson, 2014). The human resources in Sun Court Residential Homes Ltd. can make aneffective and proper use of a learning curve so that coverage of information being taught to themcan be plotted within the stipulated time period. 2
