Training needs assessment etc
Hi....a request for input, if you will....
history:
I have been asked to do a paper/presentation on training stuff (1-2 hours)...very non specific request...so I took it one step further and deceided that 98% of companies do lip service to the training element, when it comes to identifying the training need, and when it comes to measuring effective training programs. Everyone does some stuff, all document what they think they have to, just for the sake of doing it to satisfy the standard...most of those will give a meaningless test to prove the training was effective, if they do anything. Everyone ( i.e. auditor) just ignores it.......but they can't anymore. It is a lazy auditors favorite element.
Its my plan to put together a simple model with some basics from my past teaching career, and some train the trainer programs I have done.....and some stuff i found on the internet from NASA, as well as some experience I got while helping clients apply for training funds. I have plenty of material, all fairly good...at least to my liking, but not necesarily to other non trainers......
what would you want to see?
The special part will be a workshop.......where we create a scenario (yet to be determined.......heads up...here is where i need help) and identify the training need......develop a training plan, a record, and the measure of effectivity.......That will serve to bring all the material to a useable level....and show me if my training was effective!!!!!
As a quickie at the end, we will discuss how to document this on a training grant application (our state does a lot of this...)
my request:
Can anyone provide some examples I can share as ways others have done "identify the needs", or developed programs...I have a couple but could use more for fodder
Any suggestions on a scenario? it will be a group of 15-30 depending (maybe I am optimistic....LOL) I have done candy factories, driving a car, making the morning coffee, assembling a notebook to death......should be a familiar task.
thanks so much...i know you all will come through you always do
