Introduction

In order to uplift the standard of the Nigeria Baking Industry, it is necessary to create a structure that will facilitate the professionalization efforts.

 

A profession is an occupation requiring special education, or any calling by which a person habitually earns his living. Exhibiting this professional character, spirit or methods is reffered to as professionalism, i.e., the standing, practice, or methods of a professional as distinguished from those amatuer or a quack. To make a practice of baking professional as stated above and to facilitate the achievement of the mission statement, adequate training must be provided

 

Training is what every organisation must pay special attention to. The contribution of individual workers depends on what knowledge of the work they have amd the skills they possess to carry out the work. New knowledge and skill acquired increases an organisation's performance.


Cole (1977) states that: 'Training is any learning activity, which is directed towaards acquisition of specific knowledge and skills for the purpose of an occupation or task." Training in essence can be implied to mean the teaching or learning of activities carried on, for the primary purpose of helping members of an organisation to acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes needed by that organisation. To this end, proffessionalization is inevitable to the Nigeria Baking Industry.
