Which of the following is an advantage of on-the-job training?

• A. Output is being produced
• B. It is more expensive than other forms of training
• C. It cannot be organised easily
• D. Some aspects of work cannot be taught on the job

Answer: (A)

On-the-job training lets someone learn by doing within the actual work, so production keeps going and output is produced while learning. This is the key advantage because the business remains productive, and the trainee gains practical, task-specific skills with immediate feedback in the real work setting. The other statements describe downsides rather than benefits: it being more expensive than other forms isn’t typically true for this method, it being hard to organise isn’t advantageous, and that some aspects can’t be taught on the job highlights limitations rather than a plus.
