As part of our Training Partnership, an increasing number of clients
have been asking for a Training Needs Analysis. Our clients find that a
TNA is particularly useful in identifying the exact training needs of
each employee, so that useful and cost-effective training can be
organised.
A TNA starts with the client’s HR department and we work with the HR
personnel to organise an in-depth assessment of each employee’s training
needs. This can involve one or more elements - on-line input from each
member of staff identified by the HR department, an interview with the
employee and in some cases a discussion with the employee’s manager.
Our TNAs do not end with the planning of effective training. We organise
a series of follow-up sessions with training delegates, their managers
and the HR department to ensure that the training lessons have been
learned and are proving useful.
