Training Need Analysis (TNA)

Every organization, group or individual the need for training rises when there is a gap between the present performance of an employee or group of employees, and the desired performance. This need may rise when organizations undertake new initiative and transformation change, and new capability is needed in the organization level, so did the training need for group and individual to acquire new competency to support organization in the journey for new strategy capability.

With that in mind, it is important for all trainees to know about the training objective and what they want to achieve by the end of the training duration. This helps trainees learn better by knowing the trainee needs, and can set the training objectives that are right for them. Everyone learns differently and at different speeds, so it is important for you to set your training needs and objective by your own set of context and consideration. It is no point for you to benchmark again your speed of new learning with your co-worker, due to everyone coming with different sets of competency, skill and knowledge before they attend the training program. What matters most is you can measure against your own, before and after performance change, the new skill, knowledge and new competency gain.
