Training Need Analysis

What is Training Needs Analysis (TNA)?

TNA is the method of determining if a training need exists and, if it does, what training is required to fill the human capital competencies gap of an organization.

Why is TNA important?

Contrary to popular literature what has been propounded by ordinary training companies, TNA is beyond the simplistic identification of problems within an organization and whether training will indeed address the problems which have been recognized. The primary importance of TNA is to determine what human capital competencies are needed to build organizational capabilities to support organizational strategies and its sustainability in a changing and competitive environment.

Another critical aspect of TNA is to identify the human capital performance gap between the present status and what is desired. It may indicate problems and need for training. TNA seeks to accurately identify the levels of the present situation in the target surveys, interviews, observations, secondary data and/or workshop. TNA then enables organizations to channel resources into the areas where they will contribute the most to employee development, enhancing morale and organizational performance.

Why do organizations need training?

Training is a means to ensure that employees have the competencies to be able to do their work effectively and efficiently to meet organizational strategies; and when there is a gap between the current and desired performance because of shortfalls in knowledge, skills or attitude.

Training needs analysis addresses the following questions

  • What training is needed and why?
  • Where is training needed?
  • Who needs training?
  • How will training be provided?
  • How much would a training cost?
  • What will be the impact on business?

What is likely to happen in organizations without an effective TNA?

  • Undertaking training for ‘training sake’ or taking a short-gun approach.
  • Results of training are cost ineffective.
  • Targets areas of greatest training needs are missed
  • Lack of information on the organization’s climate.
  • No “buy-in” or commitment from managers and trainees.
  • Confusion between the ‘symptoms’ and the ‘causes.’
