A training needs assessment will determine the appropriate levels and methods of training for specific jobs. Training assessments are frequently performed when job conditions change such as when new technologies or work rules are introduced to the work place. Broader training assessments can also be performed on the corporate approach to training and its effectiveness.
An APS assessment of a company’s training typically includes:
Current training mission and practices
Success of current training
Anticipated business growth or reduction
Employee turnover effects
New technologies in the workplace
Area hiring demographics
Area training resources
Internal training resources
Corporate culture and goals
Outcomes that can be expected from an APS training needs assessment include:
Consistent training design methods
Clear job descriptions
Capital project training planning
Training needs for organization and individuals
Training delivery alternatives
Workplace just-in-time training
APS can help you improve your training effectiveness by conducting a training needs assessment as well as designing and developing any training programs and training materials identified by the assessment. For more information, email us at [email protected] or call Greg Pancerev at 610-987-4054.
