Party skills, the only personal skill that is useful for your companions is trainer all the others only have an effect on your main character.
Depends, i pick up Lezalit and have my character and him get some training while picking up artimenner for Engineering, while getting several other characters to fill in the tracking/pathfinding, as well as the medical skills, there are alot of characters you can pickup to use for these skills so you should get a feel for who you want to do what and pick them up at a random tavern
Asking the question because I did not note a difference in the speed of my party on the map after putting two more points in a companion's path-finding skill. But it should help?
I think most of the info here http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Mount%26Blade/Companions is still correct in warband.
I typically have my companions specialize in 3 areas each. Typically it'll end up with my pumping points into intelligence for them so as to increase the maximum in most party skills. Every 3 points in it increases the maximum for the affected party skills by 1. I also find I have an extra point when it hits that divisible.
One character will be specialized in spotting, pathfinding & tracking.
Another in wound treatment, first aid & surgery.
Another will be engineering and some other skills I forget.
For my own character I do trade, & leadership.
Any extra I have for companions goes into personal skills so they can make better us of horses, shields, bows of any type and move faster when on foot.
