Dear Nainesh,
There is no standard as such. Allocation of hours for training will vary from one industry to another and one company to another. Suppose a company is going for say ISO or Six Sigma etc, then you need to train the whole operations staff and other supporting staff.
However, in many companies, the general time budget is 2-3 working days per person per year. Again there lies a catch. In these days of "lean manpower", it is quite difficult for Ops Managers to spare his/her staff for training. Secondly, when it comes to "learning", managers are very good at delegation. But then if the training is happening at some five-star resort or hotel, the same managers spring their "great learning attitude".
Therefore, in some companies rather than adopting the bureaucratic approach of "number of hours per year", "operations need" derive the training requirement. When we are clear about what needs to be increased or decreased, obviously the number of training hours does not matter.
Ok...

Hi,
I worked in a manufacturing industry in Learning & development function for 3 years and i would rather say mandays are not only industry specific but also department / vertical specific e.g. Target Mandays for a Corporate Services would be 3.5MD whereas Target Mandays for Manufacturing business unit department would be around 7 MD since more focus on Safelty & Health, technical trainings are required. So it is very important to understand the various category of training (e.g.Behavioral,technical,functional,QHSE, induction,etc) you need to focus on and for which dept.
I hope this helps to decide on the target, although it is always good to analyse last 2 years Training data and set standards according to Management focus.
