The type of training an animal receives will vary depending on the training method used, and the purpose for training the animal.
Many different training methods exist today, including both on and off-the-job methods. On-the-job training methods happen within the organization where employees learn by working alongside co-workers in ways such as coaching , mentorship , internship, apprenticeship, job rotation, job instructional technique (JIT), or by being an understudy.
The on-the-job training method takes place in a normal working situation, using the actual tools, equipment, documents or materials that trainees will use when fully trained. On-the-job training has a general reputation as most effective for vocational work. [3] It involves employees training at the place of work while they are doing the actual ...

Supervised learning. Supervised learning ( SL) is a paradigm in machine learning where input objects (for example, a vector of predictor variables) and a desired output value (also known as a human-labeled supervisory signal) train a model. The training data is processed, building a function that maps new data to expected output values. [ 1]
Functional training has its origins in rehabilitation. Physical and occupational therapists and chiropractors often use this approach to retrain patients with movement disorders. Interventions are designed to incorporate task and context specific practice in areas meaningful to each patient, with an overall goal of functional independence. [1]
