Select an organization and determine a training need.
Select an organization you can work with for the entirety of this project; in addition, identify a current organizational stakeholder who can serve as a point of contact. As a team, and in consultation with this stakeholder, identify an actual training need within the organization.
Conduct a training needs analysis
Conduct a comprehensive training needs analysis (TNA) based on the need you identified. The data you gather will be used to write a report, plan a training intervention, and create a plan for evaluating the training.
At a minimum, your TNA should cover the following topics:
Organizational Analysis
Organizational/departmental strategy, goals, and objectives
Key stakeholders
Training climate (e.g., organizational culture, resources, manager and peer support)
Task and KSAO Analysis
Essential job functions/duties/responsibilities
KSAOs needed for success
Person/Team Analysis
Desired performance standards or indicators
Employees current KSAOs/performance levels
Gaps between current and desired KSAOs/performance levels
You may wish to use a variety of methods when conducting your TNA. Examples include internet research (e.g., the organizations website, news articles about the organization, O*NET), stakeholder interviews, and surveys/inventories, among others.
Write a report
Write a client-ready report in which you summarize the results of your TNA. Your report does not have to follow the conventions of academic writing; the format is up to you. That said, professionalism matters.
