Institute of Management in Government : Training Calendar Management

Every year the Institute of Management in Government conducts about 1200
training programmes in various categories for the State, Central and Quasi
Government Employees. There is a problem in managing the huge number of courses
which are simultaneously run in various centers and districts through out the
state, also tracking and monitoring the progress in conduct of scheduled
programs is difficult. IMG had to do the management of the scheduled training
calendar, modules, resources, course materials and participants for such a great
no. of training programmes every year. After implementing the web based Training
Calendar Management, they over come the following problems: civil servants are
able to get knowledge about the objectives and course content and hence they are
able to locate and identify suitable training programme of their choice. Online
application facility in the web page gives facility to apply for the selected
training programmes and delays in communication for getting nomination,
selection and confirmation of participants could be minimized. Trainers are able
to monitor and take corrective measures in time with the help of the
departmental training managers to conduct scheduled training programmes. Some of
the major benefits gained are great transparency of activities of IMG,
simplified procedure for applying to relevant training programmes, full
information of the training course objective, content, etc.
