Trying to determine the knowledge and skill set of your employees for future training? Not sure what training plan would be best for your staff? Do your employees have varied backgrounds and experience?

If you answer yes to any of these questions, an ISA Training Needs Assessment can help point you in the right direction.
Our four-step process forms a continuous cycle that helps you create a training program to yield the improved performance and productivity that your company expects. When you schedule an ISA Training Needs Assessment, we send an ISA subject matter expert to evaluate your employees needs and provide a written report of training recommendations for each individual. The report shows your employees strengths as well as areas where training could enhance job performance. It contains an in-depth analysis of each employee, as well as overall recommendations and comments. This documentation is often useful when undergoing ISO, FDA, or OSHA audits.

4 Easy Steps
1
Each employee answers 100 multiple-choice questions based on the knowledge requirements identied in the national job analysis report. Each employee self-assesses his or her ability to complete specic tasks related to daily duties. ISAs expert instructor interviews each technician and direct supervisor to clarify and enhance the information collected by the surveys. ISA submits a written report summarizing the ndings and providing recommendations for training and development.
