Commission our training needs analysis (TNA) service to determine the most appropriate and applicable learning and development options for your team. We can quickly recommend the best options to meet your needs, including the design of bespoke programmes.
People often choose their training based on what they think they need but without always thinking about wider or organisational skills gaps.
Our TNA service seeks to address this by helping organisations to:
- identify where skills gaps exist
- find appropriate training solutions
- ensure that training objectives are met
Using our experience we will be able to provide a holistic, cost-effective recommendations that benefit both individuals and the wider organisation.
Training Needs Benefits
1. TNAs will enable you to identify knowledge and technical skills gaps before they become a problem
One major benefit of completing a training needs assessment is it can help you and the employee to identify any knowledge and skills gaps before they become an issue and have a negative impact on the business and or the individual. It will allow you to take a proactive approach rather than waiting for something to go wrong before you realise there is a problem.
2. They help you to plan your training for the year
On completion of the TNA, you will be able to plan your Leadership Development Programme or other learning and development events, allowing you to align training to working practices, patterns of high business activity and importantly prepare a budget for your training over the course of the year.
3. Highlights training you may not have considered
It is often difficult to formulate a plan for training within a large organisation without completing some sort of background research first. You may think that you know the type of training your team should be completing, but a TNA could highlight areas that your team needs training on that you never even considered before.
4. Enables training to be focussed on the right areas
Completing a TNA will allow you to see exactly what you need to focus on, but it will also highlight the areas your team really do not need any further training on for the moment.
5. Helps to determine who should attend training
A TNA will enable you to target the correct people for each training session, ensuring everyone is following a personalised training plan, so they get the most benefit possible.
6. Helps you to prioritise training needs
Most organisations can find it difficult to plan training and which training is the most important. By using a TNA, you will be able to target the training which needs to be completed ASAP, and which training can be left till later in the year.
