The paper is the outcome of one week training programme on Evaluation of Training (EoT) organised by the Administrative Training Institute (ATI), Kolkata, West Bengal from 05.09.2016 to 09.09.2016. The paper deals with a case study associated with the Induction Level Training Course (ILTC) for the newly recruited Hydrogeologists of Central Ground Water Board (CGWB). An EoT report can strengthen the professional competence of officials working with various Regional and State Unit offices of CGWB and also can ensure the stakeholders participation to achieve the desired objectives of the CGWB. The CGWB is the National Apex body entrusted with the responsibilities of providing scientific inputs for management, exploration, monitoring, assessment, augmentation and regulation of ground water resources of the country consisting of Hydrogeologists, Geophysicists, Chemists, Hydrologists, Hydrometeorologists and Engineers and has its headquarters at Faridabad, Haryana state. Major activities being taken up by CGWB include various R&D studies, exploratory drilling programme, monitoring of ground water and its management. The Rajiv Gandhi National Ground Water Training and Research Institute, Central Ground Water Board (RGNGWTRI) is the only training and research institute of CGWB and is envisaged to function as a `Centre of Excellence’ in training ground water resources personnel and objective of these trainings is to develop a pool of trained resource persons, who would be working towards sustainability of ground water resources. The paper includes detailed account of material and methods like primary and secondary data collection, SWOT, EMB factors, Interaction with faculty and trainees, Interview and observation, Feedback, Course Director’s Report (CD Report) and various EoT tool kits, Training plan design and the EOT report (withdrawal Phase). The aims and objectives, performance problems, various environmental, motivational and behavioural problems have also been incorporated in the paper. Training and Non-training recommendations, Training Plan, Priority List and Design brief are the other highlights of the paper. The EoT analysis recommends the training and non-training implications, training design, new EoT Systems with various types of activity during the ILTC. Further, the paper includes the Flip chart preparation, Recap, Presentation and Exercises involving all the trainees with an aim to fully engage and involve the trainees. In addition, the remaining highlighted features of the paper are the motivational factors to the trainee officials like various types of incentive, good entry certificate, appreciation letter from Line Managers or Senior Manager for their outstanding performance, proper transparent promotion and transfer policies and the post training external validation are to be carried out by obtaining report on the performance of the trainees from Line Managers or Senior Manager.

Scientists in the national level water research organizations are facing problem to submit technical reports in time on account of their insufficient knowledge about the software used for analysis of the field data. The line departments working in the water sector are in need to enhance knowledge and to build the required capacity on the software to present the scenario in the form of technical reports and interpretation of the facts thereto. Therefore, the effective management of the scientific trainings especially on the software is mandatory for achieving the desired goal of any scientific organization. An effective management of the technical trainings would useful to strengthen the professional competence of the officials working in the various Regional and State Unit offices of Central Ground Water Board (CGWB), which would ensure the stakeholders participation to achieve the set of objectives of the organization as well. Being national level apex body, the CGWB is entrusted with the responsibilities of providing scientific inputs for sustainable management, exploration, monitoring, assessment, augmentation and regulation of groundwater resources of the country. CGWB is consisting of Hydrogeologists, Geophysicists, Chemists, Hydrologists, Hydrometeorologists and Engineers and its headquarters is located at Faridabad, Haryana. Major groundwater oriented activities undertaking by CGWB include research and development (R&D) studies, exploratory drilling programme, monitoring of groundwater regime followed by judicious management. The Rajiv Gandhi National Ground Water Training and Research Institute (RGNGWTRI), the training institute under CGWB is the training and research institute of CGWB and is envisaged to function as a `Centre of Excellence’ for imparting training to the personnel associated with the groundwater sector with an objective to develop a pool of trained resource persons, who would be working towards sustainability of this precious natural resources. The aims and objectives, performance problems, various environmental, motivational and behavioural problems have been considered for the Management of Training (MoT). The paper includes the major components like Training and Non-training Recommendations, Training Plan, Priority List and Design Brief. The paper recommends training and non-training implications along with training design. The post training external validation is a step of MoT, which to be carried out after obtaining report on the performance of the trainees from Line Managers or Senior Manager.
