Hi there people, I'll be reporting on the Training Policy this week. I wanted to know the following:
What is Training Policy?
Is Training Policy Different from Training Design?
If yes, then is Training Policy part of training implementation or Training Design?
What is the Difference Between Training Policy and Training Design?
What Does a Training Policy Consist Of?
Guidelines in Making a Training Policy
Difference Between Company Training Policy and Staff Training Policy
Is staff training policy the same as trainee/participant policy?
Is There a Training Policy in Every Country?
(such as the U.S. Training Policy Handbook)
Do You Have a Sample of a Training Policy?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

It appears from your posting that your company does not have a training policy. The training policy would detail what types of training the staff in your organization require, who is entitled to training, and at what stages of their career progression, etc. It may set out mandatory training for various reasons, including health and safety. It may also include budget allocations for training, policies on whether you use in-house or external trainers, etc.
Seems like your first task will be to formulate a company-wide training policy.
Training Design
Training design is the design of training courses to meet particular outcomes. For example, you can design a training course to instruct new employees on how to use a particular machine in a factory. Training design, training implementation, training needs analysis or assessment, training delivery, training effectiveness measures, etc., are all things that you can include in your training policy.

@aussiejohn, thank you for your answer. I'm still an HR student, so I really have no idea, plus we don't have a reference because our school does not require us to have a book, as our professor believes one reference is not enough. I did what you told me, but then all I saw was the procedure on how to make a training policy and the contents of a training policy. So, I took the initiative to just post another discussion. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWER THOUGH, IT REALLY HELPED ME A LOT.

I would agree that "one reference is not enough." On any subject, not just training or HR, you should read widely and seek many ideas, views, and opinions. Your college library surely would have books that you can refer to on this subject, and your professor or tutor can point you in the right direction for more resources for your research. Apart from the wealth of material already posted here on CiteHR by many HR practitioners, there is also Google and other search engines you can use to find even more material.

Let me add my perspective to your search.
Training Policy
Training policy is a standard answer to a recurring question in training. For example, should we provide snacks during training sessions? The policy may state that if it is more than two hours, we can have snacks in between.
Training Design
Training design is what we put on paper (or computer) before actually conducting the training.
Generally, we have a training policy for the organization or group. This policy provides general guidelines, such as when to opt for an external trainer versus an internal one, maximum duration, etc.
I hope my insights have been helpful, though I must warn you that they are very subjective. I have ten years of experience in training. Please gather as many perspectives as possible.
Happy learning!
