In the recent trend, organizations are executing different corporate training programs to address specific needs to promote new working practices and standards. Corporate training program allows organizations to strengthen those skills that each employee needs to improve which helps bring all employees to a higher level so they all have similar skills and knowledge. Whereas, corporate education is a system of activities designed to educate employees with the main purpose to promote the development of the capability of both individual and their organization. This helps reduce any weak links within the company who rely heavily on others to complete basic work tasks. Employees may receive basic literacy training, interpersonal skills training, technical training, problem solving training, and diversity or sensitivity training. Each type of training targets a different angle of an organization's overall performance and culture.

Today, employees are looking to upgrade their knowledge as well as skills required for their job roles and are keener to join organizations that provide opportunities to grow. In the last couple of years, corporate have realized the importance of training and have made exceptional progress. Organizations make heavy investments in learning and development practices as it is a major tool of employee retention and effectiveness. Any training solution is in effective if it doesn't impact the organization's primary objective i.e, business outcomes, Knowledge index, and Service quality to mention a few. The way people work is changing rapidly, which means that they are taking the openwork approach to learning which is as follows:

Overload means we must put our bodies under more stress than normal for adaptive changes to be made. Being familiar with these basic types helps teams focus and more easily land on the structure of the required course, especially when I point out that there are only three types of training that they need to address:
•New job training,
•Developmental opportunities
•Transitional training.
