Problem I:
Developing employees is different than training employees, though human resource functions often tend to group these activities together. Training and development are not always mutually exclusive, though they do have a different focus. Though training programs tend to be focused on improving employee performance in a current job, they may also be preparing employees for future homeworks/jobs. In your own words, describe and provide at least one example of each of the following:
1) The difference between employee development and training programs;
2) How training programs can be used to support employee development;
3) How training and development support career planning.

You also want to provide a valid, accurate evaluation of the employee's performance. What are the steps that you would take to prepare for the session? What sources of data would you consider? Finally, outline how you would conduct the feedback and evaluation.
2) Assume the role of the employee. How would you need toprepare for your performance evaluation meeting?
