M. S. Nain, G. R. Bhagat and Jitendera Chauhan

Abstract

Training has assumed a pivotal place in the development. A vast infrastructure of extension training has come up of late to support rural development. The paper aims to evaluate the performance of extension training programme for village level extension functionaries. Perceptions of participants were sought on various aspects of training viz. trainers, training programme organisation, subject matter and logistics through field survey. Even though majority of the participants perceived training to be partially helpful in job, there were several gaps in programme organisation. Use of teaching aids, provision of food and refreshment and size of the group were perceived below the acceptable level. Content of the course was not befitting for all the participants.
