Lessons on Human Resources Development

 

Lesson 18.  

Some useful indicators for training needs analysis include the following:

        Legislation or policy changes

        Lack of basic skills

        Poor performance

        New technology

        Customer requests

        New products/services

        Higher performance standards

        New jobs

        Career progression requirements


Lesson 19. 

Three levels of training needs analysis

        Organisational level needs

        Task analysis needs (job analysis)

        Person analysis needs


Lesson 20. 

Training should answer the following questions:

        What skill gaps are there in the organisation?

        Which problems can be solved by training?

        What are the appropriate non-training solutions?

        What will happen if no training is provided?

        What would be the best way to provide the training?

Training needs analysis also requires excellent listening and analytical skills. It is an art, not a science to balance all the competing needs and interests.
