For a program to be successful, readiness for training should be assessed on two
dimensions: employee characteristics and work environment. The employee
characteristics that are relevant to training are the ability to learn the subject matter,
attitudes toward training, and motivation to learn. Even if these are present, however,
training will not be effective unless there is a positive work environment—an
environment that encourages learning and eliminates obstacles for trainee success.
An important characteristic of employee readiness is having basic learning skills,
especially cognitive ability that includes using written and spoken language, solving
math problems, and using logic to solve problems. If employees lack certain basic skills,
they may have to attend some remedial classes before participating in job-related
training. Seeing potential benefits from training programs may increase employee
motivation to participate. Readiness for training also depends on work environment
characteristics called situational constraints and social support. Constraints can include
the limits of training's effectiveness from within the organization, such as lack of money
or lack of time for training and practicing. Social support refers to the ways that the
organization encourages training by expressing positive attitudes toward its training
programs.
