Linking Training to
Organisational Goals

INTRODUCTION

Today, those in training functions need to understand strategy and the role of training in today’s fast-moving environment in making sure strategic goals are met. This Linking Training to Organisational Goals training course will help anyone in training to convert strategic goals into action – with both timelines and budgets. One critical area is, of course, competency levels – which are a good example of a strategic goal. Master the techniques and gain a skill that few professionals in training have. 

Highlights of this engaging GLOMACS training course are:

• How to produce focused training strategies and plans and use the training matrix?

Training Methodology

This Linking Training to Organisational Goals training course is based on a combination of interactive activities - group and individual exercises, case studies, skills practice and discussions - along with formal inputs. The environment will be supportive in which individuals with varying degrees of experience will be encouraged to share the approaches they currently use as well as try out new ones that they encounter on the training course. The training course instructor will be available to answer any questions an individual may have and to act as a facilitator for building and applying these new approaches.

Delegates will get a Strategic Wall Chart, and the Training Work Areas Chart along with a fully indexed manual and a soft copy of the manual and slides used.
