The results presented in Table 4 indicates that thedegree <strong>of</strong> contribution <strong>of</strong> other HRD programmes were lesser than outward-bound trainingprogrammes. Other HRD programmes contributed largely to develop the outcomes such asimprovement <strong>of</strong> quality and improvement <strong>of</strong> productivity. However, even these contributionswere not higher than the contribution from the OBT programmes.Table 4.
