Training Needs Analysis & Evaluation: Assess The Skills Gaps In Your Organisation

Do you know exactly where the skills gaps are in your team or department?

If you could accurately assess the development needs of your staff before you embark on costly training interventions, wouldn't it make proving training return on investment that much easier?

A training or learning needs analysis is the assessment of gaps in skills, knowledge and attitudes in the workplace. Organisations carry this out in a variety of ways and it can often be conducted in a very informal or ad-hoc manner. Although there are obvious gains to any form of needs identification, a clear and structured process can deliver the most successful results.

Reed Learning can deliver a structured learning needs analysis for your organisation. Our needs analysis will give your organisation:

  • Clear outlines of staff development needs
  • A strategy to improve organisational performance through skills development
  • A cost effective approach to targeted staff development
  • Clear structures to evaluate performance and results
