• Initial training analysis

    Why analyse?

    Before you start creating your training materials, it’s essential think about why you want to run the training, and to consider the audience and learning outcomes. It is also a good idea to think about practical issues at this stage, such as timing and resources available. Areas to consider include:

    • Your overall aim and training objective(s) 
    • Audience and pre-requisites
    • Learning outcomes
    • Topics to cover 
    • Delivery methods 
    • Timescale and resources required 

    The analysis stage can save you time and make sure you’ve thought through various issues that can affect the success or failure of any training you run. It will also help you develop an action plan for your training.

    Before you work through an analysis for your own training, we'll go into more detail on What to consider and introduce a form that we have created to help you.
