Training Needs Analysis and Programme Design
Trainers delivering training in a business environment must be capable of identifying different
job roles and associated behaviours. This module looks at the process of completing an
effective training needs analysis, how to identify and analyse training requirements. The
structure of programme design is addressed through establishing training objectives and
how these can used to evaluate training effectiveness. A Training Needs Analysis is only
effective if it is followed up by learning programmes that are relevant to the identified needsof the learner. This module provides a step by step framework taking you through the process
in detail. Many training providers work with various certification bodies, this module also
looks at how to ensure a programme conforms to these requirements.
Preparing for Training Delivery
Delivery and Assessment
The success of any training session is largely due to preparation; this module looks at the
planning process and how to apply training methods to ensure learning objectives are
achieved. Trainers are often required to create exercises to enhance or consolidate learning;
participants are guided through how to make these activities as effective as possible. This
module also looks at the preparation of training tools, visuals aids etc.
The presentation of the trainer and how they manage and interact with the training
environment hugely contributes to how effective a training session is. During this module the
key skills of establishing, promoting and maintaining a positive learning environment are
discussed. Different training strategies are explored, how to demonstrate effective listening
and feedback skills. During delivery trainers should be consciously monitoring and critiquing
both trainers and learners achievement of the training objectives.
Evaluation of Training
In order to improve on any skill it is necessary to reflect on your existing skills and then work
on improving them. Training evaluation is an important learning platform for the trainer.
This module looks at the evaluation process, evaluating learner progress against the learning
objectives and the training programme in its entirety. Methods of gathering input from learners
during this process are described and opportunities for improvement in delivery are identified. T
his process culminates in creating a programme improvement plan, providing participants with all t
he tools for successful training evaluation.
