Training is intended to provide individuals with knowledge, skills and attitude needed to perform (or more effectively perform) a specific job. It is not education that's intended to make people well-rounded.
Formal training is needed when one or more people in an organization need new skills or knowledge and no colleague has the time or the skills to teach him.
