Hi,
I am an MBA in HR with 2+ yyrs of experience as an HR- generalist. But i would like to get into training and development i.e soft skills and behavioural training. How do i get into that field as all companies are asking for trainers with prior experience? Also, do i need to do any certificate course to become a certified trainer? Kindly advice.

Hi Nandita,
Why Behavioural T & D is preferred over the ordinary?
Behaviour is at the root of all actions and the behaviour that we notice of people in different situations is nothing but a symptom. Be it anything and anyone – children to adults, employees to employers, students to teachers, trainees to trainers, customers to sellers all of them display certain behaviours. These behaviours may be positive or negative and invariably results in provoking emotions of either person or quite often both.
Productivity and Performance of all people at all stages in one’s life is an outcome of one’s behaviour. This behaviour is propelled by one’s attitude. But the concrete wall-like attitude by itself is a result of glue-like mindsets and die-hard habits. All training and development activities needs to directly deal with behaviours of people and not just a list of do’s and don’ts. This is also the reason why our parents, bosses and even teachers fail to influence the behaviours of their children, subordinate staff or students respectively. They advice, advice and advice and it just fails, fails, and fails!
Training & Development has the power to influence performance of individuals through the behavioural route. To enhance people’s productivity, organisations, educational institutions and families invest time effort and money. To gain faster and predictable outcomes one has no choice but to deal with people’s behaviour. Behaviour is caught and not taught and hence may lead to unconscious thoughts and beliefs in oneself and these thoughts and beliefs may not always be positive, healthy and good for, either, the individual, the team, the family or the organisation.
No training can be effective if behaviours are not dealt within the training format irrespective of topic on which one is training. Behavioural Training and development is both an art and equally a well established science. Huge advances in Behavioural sciences like Psychology, Sociology and Anthropology has contributed immensely to make training more and more result oriented. Today one can confidently assert that Training does give substantial returns on investment definitely through the Behaviour pathway.
It is time you pave the way forward, with a solid foundation in Behavioural methods at training and development. Behavioural Training of the Trainers helps to understand as to how they can easily change over to ‘inside-out training’ in order to be able to influence their participants to change their behaviours for the better.
Non-behavioural approaches bank heavily on text book knowledge, and tends to become teacher centred and as a result does not yield positive results. They are called the outmoded outside-in approach to training that does not guarantee change or improvement in performance or productivity in whatever field. Hence it is high time one change’s over to participant centred approaches where behaviour is the key.
Behavioural training is the in-thing that takes you on the path of a true Training professional. Behavioural Training has the added advantage of measurements as it strongly believes in measuring where you are now so that the training can be designed behaviourally to take you where you would want to be. Pre, during and post measurements are certainly possible. And that’s a definite plus for those who are groping in the dark. Now can you be left behind?
To help you go forward professionally, Oscar Murphy International is your dependable friend in more than one way. You have the unique advantage to benefit from Behavioural Train the Trainer programmes leading to professional certification in Behavioural Training Facilitation. You also have an opportunity to take up a one year practical distance learning programme that gets you a Diploma in Behavioural T & D.
Behavioral TTT is now happening at Mumbai in May for four days between 13 to 16, 2008 between 9am to 6pm at Hotel Karl Residency, Andheri west. You can register your interest by replying this mail. I look forward to be of help in helping you become a training Professional.

My personal experience (on taking up a training profile) has been that if possible one should experience the trainee side much often to know where it hurts (read, needs) the most.
Being in HR Generalist profile will help you understand lot of such things very easily. You need to watch HOW and WHY people behave the way they do. A behaviour training cannot be generalized for all types of people applicable at all times. It needs to be custom framed for each organization keeping a strong influence of the prevailing work culture and work habits. And to get that understanding, one needs to stick around in an organization for a stable period of time, make your observations, convert those to your personal learning, step into other's shoes to feel the pain, identify what their job demands, identify the need and accordingly devise a solution. That solution then needs to get converted to a training program, that you will be able to deliver because you LIVED the system and did not copy the solution from the internet.
Summary:
1. Continue to gain expereince in your field
2. Wacth behaviors
3. Analyze HOW and WHY of behaviors
4. Identify the solution
And yes, it always helps to get certified in training & development. One also needs to develop the art of deliverying training.
Cheers

Hi Nandita,
for pursuing career in training & development you need to have experience. I do agree with Raj, that attend as much training as you can. then try to find out the problems in general employees. watch them how they work, behave, react etc.
other than that you can do a diploma course from ISTD(Indian Society for Training & Development), Delhi. it provide distance course in Training & development and have more than 18 centers in India. this is a best government recognized center for diploma in training.
if you want to do any course then don't waste your money in other institute.
