Training needs analysis
The process of identifying the knowledge, skills, and support each affected group needs to adopt a change.
Training needs analysis identifies the gap between what people can do today and what they must be able to do after the change. It should be based on impact assessment, role changes, process changes, and readiness signals.
For change managers, the value is practical: it turns a generic training plan into targeted support by role, location, timing, and adoption risk.
