Dear all,

There is plenty of information already posted here by other members on TNA's and Learning Plans.
Please use the reSearch Box at the top of every page to get the information you need.
You can also refer to the Similar Topics sidebar on the right hand side of this page. ------------------------->
Simply put, the Training Plan is the overall plan of what is needed and what you want to accomplish with the training. The Learning Plan is the detailed plan of each course, ie, what material you will teach, the methodologies (eg, lecture, group discussion, game etc), the resources you will need (whiteboard, butchers paper, pens pencils, computers etc), timings, etc etc.

Just think about who does the training and who does the learning; they you will find your answer.
Also, kindly click on the links in the sidebar on the right and read the discussions; then post a message to indicate what you think are the differences. Then we will correct any misconceptions that you may have.

Thanks, John & Simhan!
As my project is via project based learning, I have to go thru books & google for my own answers. There are too much info.
E.g. Is learning plan part of the training process? If not, should it be before or after?
I will try to search for answers via the preivous posts. Thanks again.

Yes, the learning plan is part of the training process. It comes after.
First step is your training needs analysis, ie working out what skills the staff are lacking and then preparing a plan for training.
Once you have established what the training needs are, then the trainer puts together the learning plans for each training module.
This is a very simplistic outline of the process. A TNA might establish a plan that provides for training over a period of 12 months for example. Budget considerations have to be taken into account along with the fact that staff may not be able to spared for long periods of time to attend training.
You would also need to establish if the training will be in house, or contracted out to an external training organisation. In that case they would provide the learning plans, but these should be devised in consultation with your company, so you get the desired outcomes.
Hope that helps.

Hi,
In simple words, you can say that Training Need analysis mean, Which training is required to student for perticular skill development. And Learning Plan mean how you will teach them to learn that skill.

Hi
There is big difference between learning & training.
I can think of a couple of them rt now.
first of all Learning is a lifelong process and is not specific to a task,issue or function.It involves holistic development of an individual.
On the other hand Training is to be imparted to an individual to increase his productivity with a short term horizon and tangible results.
Secondly learning is not restricted to a single medium or instructor.
Training on the other hand needs to be imparted considering the best response time i.e Visual,Audiotory or on job/situations.
Finally learning is out of one's self motivation to move to combine his skills & knowledge to move from a beginner to expert.
Whereas training is hygiene factor that motivates people to perform their task and move up the value chain.
In HR nothing is as simple or complicated as it seems since our job is to deal with the most complex organism a Human being.

Training : Training is the conscious and planned process of transferring knowledge, skills and attitudes to others.
Learning : Learning is the processing and assimilation of what we hear, see or experience that alters or improves our knowledge, skills and attitudes.
