Due Friday before Midnight

Throughout this week's readings, you discovered the importance of needs assessment or needs analysis. You will recall that there are three key areas of need

• Strategic/Organizational
• Task
• Person

Let's assume for now that we have already conducted our Strategic/ Organizational Needs Analysis and determined where we are going in our training. For your project assignment, create a table in which you outline how you will conduct a needs analysis at the other two levels - the task and person levels.

After you complete information in the table, answer these questions:

1. What types or format of Data Sources for needs assessment will offer you the information that you need?
2. Why did you choose this type of needs assessment?
3. Who will need the training?
4. What type of program will you need to design?
5. Are there any roadblocks? If so, what are they and how do you plan to prevent them from hindering the HRD program you are planning?
