Assignment: Training and Development Paper
The Training Program Fabrics, Inc.
Presented at the end of chapters 4, 5, 8 and 9 of the Blanchard and Thacker (2013) text, are examples of what would be done in a real situation regarding a small business that requested training (these sections can be found in the electronic text by going to the "Summary" section for each chapter and scrolling down). Review the Fabrics Inc. examples at the end of these chapters. These sections are labeled, "The Training Program (Fabrics, Inc.)". Blanchard and Thacker (2013) have demonstrated the phases of the Training Process Model, from the needs analysis to evaluation. Notice how the phases build on one another.
Chapter 4 presents the needs analysis, the beginning of a step-by-step process for developing a training program, for this small fabrications company. Chapter 5 continues with a description of the Fabrics, Inc., training program identifying the training design. Chapter 8 provides examples of some of the training outputs, starting with the instructor's manual and elaborates on the development and implementation steps. Finally, Chapter 9 examines the evaluation phase of the Fabrics, Inc. training.
The paper should use APA formatted headings to identify each of the following required sections:
• Abstract
• Background of Fabrics, Inc.
• Needs Analysis
• Training Design
• Development and Implementation
• Evaluation of Training
• Conclusion
• References
