An Organisational Needs Analysis is an effective way to identify any gap between the skills your business needs and those your employees have. It involves gathering information to identify areas where your employees can improve their performance to their benefit and that of your business.

The Process:

• Analyse your business goals and the skills required to meet those goals
• Identify the skill requirements of each role
• Review existing skill levels, qualifications, experience and competencies
• Perform a ‘GAP’ analysis to identify skill deficiencies
• Identify individual and team training needs, including learning styles
• Propose a cost effective solution to meet identified needs in a documented plan
• Manage and monitor the implementation of the plan
• Evaluate the impact of the training on the individual, the team and the business
