For this week’s threaded discussion you’ll be designing a
training program for a new technology that you would like to
see introduced in your workplace (it can be either a current or
past employer). You can choose any technology you would like,
so long as it’s a technology that would actually require a
dedicated training program (so, in other words, it can’t be
something like ‘a new pencil sharpener). This training program
should include all of the steps listed in figure 7.1 on pg. 105 of
the Haddad text. Be sure you conduct the training needs
analysis, develop the training design, develop the program
content, and so forth. There are five steps here, so do a
thorough job on all five. If all five steps don’t apply, then find a
new technology to introduce. Be sure you label all five stepsdon’t just write one long paragraph. This will make it easier for
interested parties (like myself, and the fellow scholar that will
be critiquing your change) to read and evaluate your program.
Once you completed this, read over some of the other training
programs that have been posted. Write a thoughtful and
detailed critique of another student’s program. Twenty percent
of your grade for this assignment will be based on the quality of
your critique.
