Importance of Training

It is difficult to define the concept of training without homologating it almost entirely with that of education. Indeed, both ideas are linked to the transmission of different aspects that make up the culture of an individual, a group of people or the entire community. The importance of training resides in fact in the diffusion of parameters as valuable as the values ​​of a society, the practical or theoretical knowledge of different disciplines, the customs that give shape and reason to a people and, of course, the behaviors that define the idiosyncrasies of a people.

Consequently, the training (in its integral sense, beyond just knowing) must be distinguished from information (understood as knowledge of data from various characteristics). There can be no training without a solid component of information, but information by itself does not in any way guarantee the formation of a person or a human group.

Other authors prefer to distinguish between the ideas of training and education, by assimilating the former as the formal content of educational aspects. In this way, the so-called informal education would not be integrated as an element of the training itself, but would be I would reserve this concept to define the learning of life in society from birth and throughout the years of life. Thus, socialization could be considered as a specific form of

training in which the individual is molded and adapted to the environment that surrounds him.

The formation, traditionally linked to urbanity and school, teacher or university education, has received great modifications from the growing expansion of Internet with its contents multimedia and, especially, from the possibility of offering courses and educational sessions at a distance. In addition to ensuring access to a much higher proportion of potential learners, this strategy ensures greater interaction with teachers, since debate is incorporated into the training through forums, comments and other digital tools in time real.

Therefore, the importance of training reaches superlative levels that, thanks to the technology, has spread in a proportion only comparable to that observed with the birth of the printing press more than five centuries ago.
