What is TNA?
TNA (training-needs-analysis) is a systematic method of determining which type of training is necessary and offering information on how to accomplish it. It's also recognized as a method for determining what new skills, knowledge, and attitudes people need to boost their performance.
TNA firms determine the skills and training gaps in their existing personnel in order to efficiently fulfill current and future jobs. The Training Manager carefully analyses the data to build the best training program to suit the skill and training needs of the employees, allowing them to be more productive and fulfill the organization's goals and objectives.
Methods
- Direct Observation - The training supervisors study the employees' working styles in a variety of settings. The managers can learn about performance gaps with the use of this observation. The employee's technical methods, functional parts of the work, and behavioral features of the employee are all under scrutiny during the observation. It gives qualitative feedback on the employee's present performance.
- Interview - It's a face-to-face discussion regarding how an employee does his or her work. Speaking with each individual or a group is an excellent technique to get information concerning production gaps. The interview might take place in a professional or informal environment. The interview might take place in person or over the internet.
