Be the best you can be....
Noe has hit the nail on the head with his exceptional presentations and breakdowns of employee development (My reason for choosing this book.) His explanations of the need for the companies to become competitive and how to achieve it with traditional and cutting edge approaches makes this a must read. The reasons for training, how to do a needs assessment, and get employees to be the best they can be, becomes obtainable with his step by step processes. Go for it. You won't regret it.

A Review of "Employee Training and Development
I found this book to be very informative and the wide variety of topics covered involving training and development give a little something for everyone. The information in the book it present in digestible about and definitions are given for all information that may be unclear. For the beginner the is book is good but I would recommend it for use in a classroom setting where the lectures or some other form of discussion can supplement the material covered.

One of the "better" texts I've read.
This I have to admit was one of the "better" texts I've read for college. The overall set up of the book (from a student standpoint) was easy to follow, and actually written in a way that kept me interested. So many times texts are so boring it's hard to want to pick them up to read...this wasn't the case.

As with most texts, your supposed to come away learning "something." In this case, I was overall pretty happy that I came away learning more than I have in other courses...I'm going to say because of the book, not the professor.
