This is a valuable asset that every organization should know to take advantage and develop. Furthermore, in integration of global economy, the training and development of human resources is considered as a vital task for every organization because strong human resources is the prerequisite to compete and survive in today's competitive environment. Therefore, the improvement of training quality takes an important part in development strategy 1.2 Background of the Study In fact, Bitis as well as other Vietnamese companies, especially the large one have invested in human resource development but it has not yet become strategic objectives of the business. The recruitment, employment and training new employees is executed only in a short time yet long-term goals. Many businesses have to face with the continuous jumping labour, especially during economic instability. Meanwhile, training and development of human resources are principally important since the majority of Vietnam's labor lack of knowledge and skills by the education system and professional training did not meet the requirements business BITIS have faced a difficulty regarding quality of worker, the lack of high skilled workers is another weakness point of BITIS. That is the results of low level professional in recruiting human resources for company. Moreover, lower awareness and less responsible made by a small part of labor forces is still adverse impacting on company development. Therefore, I have selected topics: “THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM AT BITIS COMPANY” for my research. With a desire to make a small contribution to improving the quality of human resources at the company Bitis. 1.3 Aims of Study + To evaluate the factors influence the training process at Bitis company + To recommend a best practice strategy for prevention of the negative influence for training and develop human resource in organisation. + To outline solutions for the process to improve the training and develop human resource at Bitis company. 1.4 Objectives of Study 1.

This was due to the fact that the author was unable to gain access to employees at any other organisation. The study was also limited to research in one geography area, Hanoi. 4 CHAPTER II: REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 The importance of training and development Training and Development helps in optimizing the utilization of human resource that further helps the employee to achieve the organizational goals as well as their individual goals. Training and Development helps in increasing the job knowledge and skills of employees at each level. It helps to expand the horizons of human intellect and an overall personality of the employees. 2.2 Training methods There are many training methods and new methods or variations are constantly being added. The purpose of this section is not to try to list them all. Instead the focus will be on the top ten training methods used in business today as reported by Lakewood Research and Training Magazine [ Joinson, C., p. 55]. These top ten, listed in order from highest to lowest use, are as follows: videotapes, lectures, one-on-one instruction, role plays, games/simulation, case studies, slides, computer-based training, audio tapes, and films. 2.3 The factors influence the training In organizations where a management training centre exists, for example, the training department’s contribution is usually valued. Introducing such a centre involves a good deal of initial research and evaluation and the financial commitments involved discourage the management from taking lightly the decision to provide it. Moreover, if they are prepared to make such an investment, the decision may be reasonably interpreted as an acceptance that the training department is sufficiently competent to assume responsibility for all aspects of management training. The impact of government legislation on training has been considerable, in particular since the year 2008 to now, the technical, vocational education and training in Vietnam is under the administration of the two relevant ministries namely ministry of Education and Training (MOET) and Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA). MOET is responsible for professional secondary Education and MOLISA is responsible for vocational training. 2.4 The brief overview of the steps of the training process follows: Identify needs, evaluate needs, select courses, develop courses, determine workload, recruit trainers, identify location and resources, finalize budget, finalize training plan, prepare courses, deliver courses, validate training, evaluate training, revise courses 5 CHAPTER III: RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 3.1 Research design In this research, four questions in section A are designed as an open question and 12 quantitative questions in section B are half-closed question, using both quantitative and qualitative. These questions have been sent to Bitis for pilot study. They are seemed to have good evaluation, easy to answer workers, less time consuming and respondent can add comments if necessary 3.2 Research tool The questionnaire was split into two sections, A and B. Section A was designed to ask employees which group they belong to. Section B was designed to investigate the training process, and evaluate the effective of training process at Bitis company and consisted of open questions giving the respondent the opportunity to include any opinions or recommendations regarding how Bitis company could improve their the training process for employees. 3.3 Sampling method The researcher employed a probability, simple random sampling technique. This allowed the researcher to obtain a straightforward sampling frame of all of the people in Bitis population.

Open questions allow participants to define and describe a situation or event. 3.5 The Pilot Study In order to increase the validity of the questionnaire a pilot study was carried out initially. Pilot questionnaires were sent to two employees at Bitis company, inviting them to constructively criticise the questionnaire. The aim of the pilot study was to refine the questionnaire so that respondents would have no problems in recording the data. 3.6 Procedure Following the amendments made from the results of the pilot study, the finalised questionnaires were distributed along with a cover letter for respondents outlining the aims of the study, assurances of confidentiality and informing the individual of the right to withdraw from the study at any time. 6 3.7 Data analysis Author used excel to percentage calculations to establish trends in the data obtained and data was presented in the form of pie charts.
