Training Needs Analysis

Training Needs Analysis

Why Attend

Effective learning functions begin with rigorous identification of training needs that link business priorities to competency gaps. This program equips participants with the skills to scope and plan a Training Needs Analysis (TNA), collect valid data from multiple sources, and convert findings into competency-based instructional learning objectives (ILOs) and practical learning solutions. By the end, participants will produce a concise TNA brief and an implementation roadmap that prioritizes high-impact interventions and clarifies resources, roles, and timelines.
