Human Resource Development,
The origins of HRD can be traced to apprenticeship training programs in the
eighteenth century. During this time, small shops operated by skilled artisans
produced virtually all household goods, such as furniture, clothing, and shoes.
To meet a growing demand for their products, craft-shop owners had to employ
additional workers. Without vocational or technical schools, the shopkeepers had
to educate and train their own workers. For little or no wages, these trainees, or
apprentices, learned the craft of their master, usually working in the shop for
several years until they became proficient in their trade. Not limited to the
skilled trades, the apprenticeship model was also followed in the training of physicians,
educators, and attorneys. Even as late as the 1920s, a person apprenticing
in a law office could practice law after passing a state-supervised examination
