CONCLUSION
In conclusion the four-step HRD process were delineated and charted, and all the four steps are
important towards achieving an effective design and implementation of HRD programs. Failure and success
of HRD programs and activities depended on the systematic approach of HRD. In the event, one step of the
systematic approach is circumvented, the possibility of an effective HRD programs may occur. Hence, it is
pertinent that organisations abide to the systematic approach of HRD as it covers the ‘why’ human resource
should be trained and developed, the methods and approaches to be utilised in the training and development
activities, the “who” should be given the necessary and relevant training, the when and where training and
development should be implemented and finally, measuring the effectiveness of HRD programs and
effectiveness.
