Abstract
This paper explains that, in 1998, a full scale investigation of the issue of mixed-sex training concluded unanimously that mixed-sex basic training and housing should be ended; however, the most that came from the report was that the Army agreed to install partitions in the barracks to discourage sexual encounters. The author points out that the panel urged the military services to keep the sexes in separate barracks at the platoon level for the ten week of basic training; yet, men and women would still train together. The paper relates that, while careful not to sound tolerant of sex crimes or harassment, critics declare that placing young men and women together during the first weeks of training and particularly placing seemingly all-powerful male drill sergeants in charge of young female recruits, is simply a recipe for trouble.

From the Paper
"There were so many female recruits who were unable to pass hand grenade tossing tests at one Army base that authorities simply changed the standards, setting different requirements for male and female recruits, reports analyst James Anderson of the Heritage Foundation, in his paper, "Boot Camp or Summer Camp? Restoring Rigorous Standards to Basic Training" . Anderson says that in an effort to entice and retain women, basic training has become much more feminized, de-emphasizing toughness and rigor. At Great Lakes Naval Training Center, recruits are now shown a video that tells them that "anyone can make it through boot camp," when actually the point should be that not everyone can make it."

Abstract
This paper discusses three effective approaches for training in the workplace: basic skills training, computer-based training, and video training, and discusses their advantages. The paper also discusses the need to consider globalization in developing employee training.

From the Paper
"Effective training in the workplace needs to consider the effects of globalization on the workforce as it brings in diverse employees with different levels of basic skills and many employees for whom English is not their first language. Three important types of training that are effective in the workplace are basic skills training, computer-based training and video training. This paper discusses each of these approaches pointing out their advantages. Virtually everyone will agree that training is one of the most critical functions underlying..."

Abstract
This paper presents a thorough explanation of aggression replacement training and the basic tenants of this form of therapy. The goal is to give adolescents alternatives to their aggression and antisocial behavior and teach them to recognize the precursors to their physically aggressive and threatening behavior. The author also cites the importance of adolescents considering the consequences of their actions and taking positive control of their situation. The paper further describes the three intervention techniques used that correspond with the three components of aggressive behavior.

From the Paper
"A group format is generally used for this type of training, because the dynamics of the group can be used to help advance learning much more quickly. Some of the ways that learning is solidified are through role playing, homework assignments, and the repetition of important concepts (Glick, et al, 1986). There are both pre- and post-tests that are given to the adolescents in order to help determine whether the program was effective and how much skill development the participants have seen, and adults that have interaction with these adolescents outside of the group, such as probation officers, teachers, and parents, are given information that explains the techniques and terminology that are used in the program (Goldstein & Glick, 1994).

Abstract
This paper explains that the purpose of the training program at the Glendale Adventist Medical Center (GAMC) Psychiatric Institute is to provide job skills, placement services and ongoing support for the selected GAMC target clients aged 18-45 years old. The clients, the author points out, will be chosen from the GAMC inpatient and outpatient populations on the basis of their request and desire to obtain a job, personal interviews and referrals by case-workers, counselors, medical practitioners and social workers. The paper relates the structure and content of the classes, the staff and the volunteer board of directors.

"The small staff structure for this program will enable strong flexibility and contribute to good communication between staff. A small staff can also be posed for rapid adaptability as program funding fluctuates over time. Each member of the staff will need to be accountable and accessible to clients, board members and participating employers in the community. Understanding the needs of each client and customizing the program for their goals and abilities will be critical for success."

Abstract
This paper states that the most important relationship for a store to maintain is the relationship between the employees and the public; therefore, the store should evaluate the training of its employees. This paper describes, in detail, the entire research project, which used a questionnaire and basic statistical analysis, and the outcomes of the questionnaire. The author concludes that, although the participants rated the training program as only "moderate," the program does fulfill its basic purpose of training the employees to perform the various jobs within the store. Attractive presentation.

From the Paper
"The most important relationship for the store to maintain is its relationship between the employees and the public. The employees represent the major link between the store and the public; therefore, it is in the store's best interest to ensure its employees are highly trained and oriented towards customer's needs. Ambassador Duty Free is in direct competition with the duty free store at the tunnel. Providing employees with effective training and product knowledge will improve their customer service skills and encourage customers to patronize the store."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that every workplace environment, regardless of the amount of hazards or type of environment, should have a basic first aid, CPR and blood born pathogen training program or, at the very least, an emergency response plan. The writer maintains that the benefits and needs for proper employee training and precautions in such areas as first aid, CPR and blood borne pathogen protection are essential in today's business world. Not only may such training save a life, it will ensure that all employees are properly protected and, if all standards are properly followed, may protect the employer from potential areas of liability. The writer concludes that for this reason, all employers should, at a minimum, offer its employees a basic course in first aid and CPR.

From the Paper
"Cariopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, is an emergency first procedure used on a victim of cardiac arrest. Although CPR is part of the emergency medical provider's chain of survival, which includes early access to emergency medical services, early CPR, early defibrillation and early advanced care, it is a procedure that can be performed by laypersons. In fact, because CPR is such a vital component in saving a person's lives, it is highly advised that all people become fully trained in CPR procedures. This is especially true in the workplace setting.
"CPR is a skill that must be learned from professional training and through regular practice and review courses. Typically training involves hands-on practice using a resuscitation mannequin. Like all first aid procedures, CPR is a skill that should be learned at the beginning of an employment relationship and not as a reaction to an employment emergency situation. Because CPR is such a specific procedure, it is best if it is taught by an expert, which will allow the person to perform CPR in an effective and safe manner."

Conclusion

From the Paper
"The turmoil in different regions of the world is already a reality and these conflicts look as if they are here to stay - and possibly become bigger or spin off into smaller ones. Indeed, there is a continuing need for peacekeepers, especially civilian peacekeepers since the military forces around the world do not have enough trained military peacekeepers to fill every conceivable need. Peacekeepers represent the country they come from and the organization they are attached to; their presence is first and foremost to help a mission area recover from the trauma of conflict. They should be well trained and ready at all times to answer the call but training and willingness is not enough. They need to live by a certain code of conduct that will differentiate them from ordinary relief volunteers."

Conclusion

From the Paper
"The civilian police officer is usually on the front lines, making sure that peace is kept, both internationally and nationally. Training for the CP has emerged as ineffective and not useful as times have changed. Terrorists do not care how they kill or maim, as long as their message gets out. The CP must apply all new challenges and solutions based on their training. Training is key when the CP arrives first on the scene to assess damage and try to control it. Training within the organization should not be influenced by cultural disparities or different mind-sets. Each person brings with them a set of core values, but if applied correctly, these values can be an asset to the CP after the officer has gone through training. However, because the training for the CP is not yet complete because of new and interesting challenges they face daily (i.e. terrorism), that training has to evolve daily."

From the Paper
"The new personnel will be given a short quiz, which will determine for them and their trainer their particular personality and reveal how they look upon a new person who is visiting the store. With the results of this test, the trainer may then go over the procedures which the new personnel might use to help the customer, to make the customer feel more at ease and more inclined to continue searching for what they want within the Department Store, rather than moving on to another store.
"Moving from this base of a "comfortable customer," a customer who feels that the sales clerk is genuinely interested in their particular need, the trainer will advance to the psychology of sales, and demonstrate how to help a customer find and choose which product they want from the selection in the Department Store. After the customer has chosen and paid for their product, the sales clerk is taught what the Department Store suggests they say to ensure that the customer will return to purchase more of the same type of goods in the future, or find unrelated products not in the sales clerk's department: "I hope you enjoy your product. If you have any problems with it whatsoever, please bring it back to us and we will make sure you are satisfied.""

Abstract
Terrorism has become embedded in almost everyone's vocabulary, it is one of those terms, that not everyone knows what it means, but it seems to be surrounded with negative connotations. However, it is not surprising that terrorism is sometimes abetted with state sponsorship and is supported by many governments whether intrinsically or extrinsically. As such international peace-keeping efforts have to change focus and address these internal dynamics. This paper explores some of the necessary mandates that are needed by personnel dealing with these issues.

Conclusion

From the Paper
"Conflict resolution and peace keeping has been an issue of controversy for many years. However, with the proper training mechanism and structure, then peace and humanitarian operations can be the champions of a successful organizational initiative. It is therefore imperative that there be a comprehensive discourse embedded in the training structure for these operations that can analyze elements of the foreign conflict resolution and negotiation strategies. The connection between an effective training program or structure with the overall success of conflict resolution and negotiations will depend primarily on how well the program identifies the necessary political, economic, and cultural realms that have been affected by the dimensions of the operations. Overall, it is clear that conflict resolution and negotiation policy training is reactive and preventative, since it would be devised to counter, and to prohibit actions that were seen as harmful to the peace initiatives."
