Southwest FL ASTD Monthly Meeting
July 20, 2011
Managing the Learning Function
Our goal is to take the leadership role in developing human capital to execute the organization’s objectives. It includes planning, organizing, monitoring, and adjusting activities that ultimately lead to workplace learning and improved performance.
Training is not always the best solution for employee performance issues. It is important to conduct learning needs assessments. Our role as professionals is to know the elements of needs assessment: gap analysis and identification of priorities, causes, solutions, and opportunities.
The training plan should closely relate to the corporate or business strategy and be built into a training policy that demonstrates the value of learning to the organization. Measurements must be included in our programs to demonstrate the ROI.
The two basic building blocks of a course are objectives and content outline. Those basics expand into units of instruction and consist of lessons. Another factor that has become increasingly important is understanding the different technologies available – and their uses – that is critical in our ever-changing work environment and affects our ability to provide value-driven training solutions.
On our ongoing journey to offer sessions based on the ASTD’s Areas of Expertise, please join Dora Krauss, Director of Education for NCH Healthcare, for an enlightening session discussing the key ingredients for managing the learning function!
