training is not dominantly dependent on the use of conceptual aspects of
training which are not only monotonous in nature but also less productive in
terms of transmission of knowledge to the trainers. In fact, training can be a
rewarding experience to both the trainers and trainees if its major emphasis is
on the promotion of participatory learning through the use of methods which
make the training process more interesting and also ensure the training’s more
productive results.
