Title: Training and commitment
Description: This book is about training - public service, private service and community development personnel. It defined training and illustrated it's relationship with the stated performance improvement of an organisation; thus showed the importance and contribution of training in organisational development. This work clearly illustrated the distinction among Training, Education and Extension. It developed a general frame-work of entire training process -Planning, Preparing, Presenting and Evaluating the training activities and also developed sets of indicators of commitment necessary for the requiring organisation, the trainers, trainees and all other concerned for the success of a training efforts in different chapters of the book. 
This book also attempts to examine the co-operative and rural development activities of a developing country - Bangladesh and the role of training of the Village co-operators in achiving the co-operative and rural development objectives in rural Bangladesh. Though a large amount of resources were invested in developing rural/co-operative training infrastructure in Bangladesh in 1960s, the villagers training efforts were quite effective in 1960s and early 1970s because of COMMITMENT of all concerned including the nominating organisations, the trainers and the trinees. This study found that lack of Commitment at different levels in the later periods made the same villagers training activities ritualistic, steriotyped and lifeless in Bangladesh. The book very strongly argues that COMMITMENT of all concerned is the essential element for the success of any training activity.
This book, it is greatly hoped, will appear as a useful collection for any training organisation particularly for the training practioners. Rural development ,co-operative and extension workers may also find the book helpful and worth collection.
