A common method used by many organizations is for each employee’s manager to discuss training and development needs during the last part of the performance appraisal discussion. An employee development plan form is usually used for this purpose. This method suits where training needs are highly varied amongst individual employees.
If you need to train a number of people in a specific role in specific role-based skill deficiencies, then a different approach is warranted. You could assemble a group of people in that role, their managers, subject matter experts and the trainer in one or more meetings to identify training needs. Or you could meet with the peoples’ managers and the employees individually. A structured approach works best, and we recommend using a training needs analysis worksheet. With the worksheet, you would basically cover the following areas:
1. TRAINING NEEDS ANALYSIS CONTEXT WORKSHEET
Project Sponsor:
Reason for Request:
Participant Roles:
Organizational Objectives:
Training Program Objectives:
2. TARGET POPULATION WORKSHEET
No. of Participants:
Location:
Department:
Education/Experience:
Background:
Current Job Experience:
Current Performance vs Expected Performance:
Language/Cultural Differences:
Anticipated Attitudes:
3. TASK DESCRIPTION WORKSHEET
Task Description:
Frequency:
Proficiency:
Performance Criteria:
Conditions:
Underpinning Knowledge:
Which method you use will depend on your particular circumstances. The results of this are then fed into the high-level design of the training program.
Our training management template pack contains an employee development plan form and a training needs analysis worksheet that you can customize to your particular needs. You can find it at http://www.businessperform.com/html/...anagement.html
I hope this helps.
