The humans learning capacity is considerably increased when they are not only passive recipients of facts communicated to them but have also possibilities to acquire knowledge through exercises. Such knowledge in training situations concerns the person itself and other persons. We discuss that the purpose of training may only assist the self-development of the mature, healthy personality. This only could be attained by complex series of educational activities developed in a system. At the time of the planning the stages of the career are to be taken into consideration together with fact on what level we intend to execise influence. The principal methods are outlined in this paper.
