Dear All,
I am doing my summer project in an SME on Training Need Analysis. The organization is 20 years old, and the organizational structure is not as per the latest developments. The company is a manufacturing company specializing in spray painting.
Now, to identify training needs, the usual norms are through Performance Appraisals, job descriptions, or past training needs identified, etc. However, being an old-fashioned company, Performance appraisals do not happen, and the job descriptions are not well-defined. What they specify are just the minimal educational qualifications.
I have decided to write the Job Descriptions and find Training Needs simultaneously. Attached are the two questionnaires that I will be using:
1. HOD Questionnaire - to be filled by HODs
2. Individual Questionnaire - to be filled by individuals in each department.
The following is my schedule:
Week 1, 2 - Preliminary Research and Preparation of Questionnaire
Week 3, 4 - One-on-One interaction with HODs and a few employees per department
Week 4, 5 - Collection of Questionnaires
Week 5, 6 - Preparation of Job Descriptions
Week 6, 7 - Preparation of TNA and Training Calendar
Week 7 - Report and presentation to management.
I have three queries:
1. Am I going in the right direction?
2. Please review the questionnaires and assess whether any changes need to be made to customize them for an engineering firm.
3. Could someone provide me with sample Job Descriptions and Job Specifications?
All suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
