This article highlights how English language teachers professional development and training programmes fosters teachers’ professional competences in the teaching of the subject. English Language is vital in developing communication and social skills in learners as it does empower learners to compete favorably with their peers around the world. The ex-post factor approach of the survey design was adopted in the study. A random sampling technique was used to select twenty primary schools in Oyo state, Nigeria, with 168 English teachers who were currently undergoing the SUBEB/UBEC teacher professional development programme (2018). Two instruments: Teacher Teaching Competence Scale (TTCS) with Cronbach’s Alpha reliability coefficient of 0.68 and the Teachers Checklist Observation Scale (TCOS) with Scott Pi reliability coefficient of 0.71 were used for data collection. The data collection lasted for a period of fourteen weeks. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics and correlation at 0.05 level of significance. Results revealed that teacher’ attendance and exposure to a professional development and training programme; does enhance their professional teaching competences. It is therefore expedient that stakeholders in the education sector; especially governmental agencies, sponsor and encourage practicing primary teachers in attending and participating in professional development programmes; incentives should also be given to these teachers. This will go a long way at ensuring that these teachers look forward to attending such programmes at any time in the future

The National Transportation Security Center of Excellence (NTSCOE) was established in August 2007 to develop new approaches to defend, protect, and increase the resilience of the nation's multi-modal transportation infrastructure, and to create education and training programs for transportation security. The Center for Transportation Safety, Security, and Risk (CTSSR) at Rutgers University, an NTSCOE institution, developed models that address multi-modal resilience of freight and transit transportation networks. Data collection processes for each project presented significant hurdles for the research team in developing credible and accurate modeling tools. For any given data need, the potential exists for data gaps, collection, and processing errors, publication and use restrictions, and the need to obtain the most timely information. These challenges must be foreseen by researchers and practitioners in order to better accommodate potential restrictions on both data collection and dissemination while still providing users with a tool that improves decision making.

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los métodos de evaluación de las inversiones a largo plazo en activos fijos, tecnología y capacitación del recurso humano, utilizados por el sector farmacéutico del estado de Zulia (Venezuela). Metodológicamente, es de tipología descriptiva, con un diseño no experimental de campo y transversal. La población fue constituida por las siete (7) farmacias inscritas y activas en el Registro Municipal de la Alcaldía Bolivariana del municipio Jesús Enrique Lossada del Estado de Zulia al mes de mayo de 2015. Se utilizó el cuestionario estructurado como instrumento de recolección de datos aplicado a los gerentes y/o administradores, quienes fueron las unidades informantes; el mismo fue validado por cinco (5) expertos y mediante el nivel de confiabilidad, siendo el Alpha-Cronbach de 0,89. Los resultados demuestran que si bien pocas empresas acuden a los métodos tradicionales para evaluar las inversiones en propiedades, planta, equipos y tecnología, la mayoría aplica los destinados a evaluar inversiones en capacitación del talento humano. En conclusión, los métodos menos usados son aquellos que requieren la aplicación de fórmulas aritméticas (VPN, TIR, IR), evidenciando así que estas empresas carecen de personal calificado para usar e interpretar estos últimos. Se recomienda maximizar su uso para garantizar la salud financiera de estas organizaciones, así como aplicar los correctivos cuando la capacitación brindada al trabajador no produzca el efecto esperado. ABSTRACTThis article aims to analyze the methods of assessing long-term investments in fixed assets, technology and training of human resources used by the pharmaceutical sector of Zulia (Venezuela). Methodologically, the typology is descriptive, with a non-experimental field not a cross design. The chosen sample consisted of seven (7) registered and duly active pharmacies in the Municipal Register of the Bolivarian Mayor City of Losada - State of Zulia in May 2015. A well structured questionnaire was used as an instrument for data collection applied to managers and / or administrators who were reporting units. It was validated by five (5) experts and the level of reliability using the Cronbach Alpha was 0.89. Results show that while only a few companies flock to traditional methods to evaluate investments in property, plant, equipment and technology, the majority applies them to assess the investment used for the training of human talent. In conclusion, the least used methods are those that require the application of arithmetic formulas (NPV, IRR, IR) thus showing that these companies lack qualified personnel for the use and interpretation of these methods. It is strongly recommended, in order to maximize its use, to ensure that these organizations are financially healthy, and at the same time proceed to apply the necessary correctives when the training provided to the worker does not produce the desired effect.
