Training

Training, understood as a contribution and stimulus to the evolutionary growth of a person or a group, pursues the development of skills and attitudes that are not only cognitive and work-related, but also of a spiritual, moral, civil, social or emotional nature. It is distinguished from education because it is not limited to the mere acquisition of knowledge, and to a lesser extent from education, which it shares with practical and behavioral importance, but with respect to which it has recently taken on technical connotations, relating to the achievement of professional skills, intellectual, cultural, artistic, or in any case specialist, both individual and referring to collective organisations. Training is an evolved and complex communication process, which develops through two (or more) subjects or entities that use content. For this process to take place, the presence of the trainer and the person being trained is necessary. The person being trained is not yet formed, except by definition in a potential way. Between the two there is a communication of contents, of thought, of activities, of control and verification of the actual passage of contents. This communication, which takes place over a necessarily long time for the real assimilation of the contents and the verification of professionalization, is the manifestation of training. Training usually begins at an early age and continues until death. Some theories of developmental psychology maintain that certain sensitivities are acquired even within the mother's womb. To give an example, listening to music is already perceived by the fetus a few weeks after conception. At birth, parents have the task of providing an initial form of education, contributing to the initial education of children up to school age. Subsequently, the institutions take charge of the collective education of boys and girls. The concept of training is very complex and delicate: it must be carefully structured and planned.
