TAATAS501A Undertake organisational training needs analysis
Introduction
The aim of training needs analysis (TNA) can be crudely stated as the identification of the current competencies of people and any gap that may exist between current competencies and those required for work or personal development needs. Limiting TNA or identification of learning gaps just to 'skills' that must be learnt to do the job is far too narrow.
Although gaining commitment to personal and organisational improvement is a vital first step in the learning process, direction is also required in order to channel this desire to learn in a way that will benefit both the individual and the organisation. TNA can establish a systematic set of priorities and planned learning interventions that can help individuals, teams, organisations and industries set out what it is that they need to learn.
This module will focus on establishing how to conduct a TNA that will prioritise the training, assessment and development of individuals while meeting the strategic needs of different organisations.
