Scenario for Assignments
Assume that you are a training manager at a hypothetical organization where the Director of Human Resources has asked you to develop a training program for the organization's 200 employees. (Note: You may create and /or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of these assignments. In your original work, you may use aspects of existing training programs from either your current or a former place of employment, or from an organization with which you are familiar. However, in those instances, you must remove any and all identifying information that would enable someone to discern the organization(s) that you have used.). You will need to identify the subject area for your training. You may choose a training program that currently exists but is not meeting the needs of the organization; however, you will need to clearly explain this in your training needs assessment. The training program may focus on the company as a whole or on a specific department. Keep in mind, however, the training is intended to improve the organization's performance (e.g., bottom line, outcomes).
This is an authentic assignment, which can be put into your professional portfolio. The project will be developed in stages. Your Director of HR (your professor) will review each stage and provide you with feedback for your consideration as you continue to develop your training program.
