Identify methods for determining what the trainees know or can already do prior to training. o How would you make use of individual employee analysis? o If you use a test, survey, interview, or questionnaire, describe the information you will be acquiring. Identify the gaps you believe you would discover in the analysis. o Make some assumptions. If you are developing a program for an environment with which you are familiar, these might be based on your experiences; if not, use common sense. These gaps will become your objectives for the training program. Based on your analysis, identify the objectives for the training program.
