Assessing the gap between training of employees and training needs.
It also identifies the gap between present and essential levels of knowledge , skills
and attitude.
Three level analysis by McGhee & Thayer :

Organizational level Strategic need analysis expanding into a
market, it would need to
fill new jobs.
Operational level Task analysis
Performance analysis
Individual level
Step 2 : Designing the training
program
Setting learning objectives (measurable and feasible)
Making a motivational learning atmosphere (both trainee &
trainer)
Make the learning substantial (familiar examples)
Make skills transfer obvious and easy (maximize the similarity
between training conditions & learning conditions)
Reinforce the learning (by appreciation, applauding the efforts)
Ensure transfer of learning to the job
During training the trainer must provide training
experiences & conditions that look like the actual
environment. So that they can not have the “reality
shock” once they join the job.
Step 3: Developing the program
Designing the training content and materials of the program.
Step 4 : Implementing the training
programs
On-the-job-
training
Off-the-job-

On-the-job-training (OJT)
Allowing the person to learn the job by doing it in real work situation. (learning by
doing)
Learning under the guidance and supervision of the superior or instructor.
Advantages:
Adaptable method
Cheaper method
Time efficient
Disadvantages:
Requires clear communication, patience
Can create doubts
Likelihood of mishap and accident
Methods of OJT

The trainee is separated from the real job situation.
Advantages:
Helps in increasing the productivity
Helps in minimizing the error
Helps in avoiding the disturbance

Disadvantages:
Sometimes it is expensive
Less effective
Stagnates the production process

Behavior modelling
In basket method (by Kurt Lewin)
The workers are provided with data (fictional data/
fictional company)
Then trainee is given multiple papers (emails, policies,
that an actual manager handles)
So, this develops their judgements & decision making &
how to priorities the task.
