This is the second part of our Business English Pod series on training and development vocabulary and collocations. 這是有關培訓和詞匯，習慣用語學習的商務英語播客的第二部分。

Good training is crucial for any company, big or small. How can we expect people to do a good job if they don't have the right knowledge, skills, and tools? Providing employees with these tools is a key function of training. 好的培訓對于任何或大或小的公司都至關重要。如果沒有正確的知識，技能和工具，我們怎么能期待他把工作做好呢？給職員們這樣的工具是培訓的主要功能。

And training is what we'll be talking about today. We'll be looking at some important vocabulary and collocations related to training. Remember, collocations are natural combinations of words that native speakers commonly use. There are no clear rules to collocation, only patterns. When you learn a new word, you should try to learn what other words are used with it. For example, you might think that "crime" is a useful word to know, but it will be difficult to use it if you don't know that we usually use the verb "commit" before it, as in: "commit a crime." 培訓是今天我們要談論的。我們將繼續學習一些重要的和培訓有關的詞匯和習慣用語。記住，習慣用語是以英語為母語的人通常使用的單詞的自然組合。對于習慣用語沒有明確的規則，只有一定的模式。當你學一個新的單詞，你需要試著學習什么樣的詞和這個搭配。比如，你可能會覺得犯罪這個詞很有用，但是如果你不知道在這個詞之前使用commit這個詞，我們還是沒有學會正確的表達。

In the last episode, you heard many useful training collocations. We listened to Jeff, who works in HR at an engineering firm, talk with David, who has just given a presentation on new approaches to training. We heard Jeff explain how his company wants to improve their learning and development program. Today, David will explain more about learner-centered training. 在上一集中，你聽到了很多有用的培訓的搭配。我們聽到了在工程公司人事部門工作的杰夫，他和剛剛就培訓新方法做完陳述的大衛談論。我們聽到杰夫解釋他的公司是多么需要提高他們的學習和發展項目。今天，大衛將繼續解釋更多的有關學習者為中心的培訓。
