Skills Development Programs

Today's workforce requires an ever increasing emphasis on skills development. 

Formal and informal training and skills development programs must be developed with these goals in mind:

  • All training and skills development programs must support and advance the attainment of organizational goals and initiatives.

  • All training and skills development programs must provide and assess skills that are relevant to the recipient's current or future job responsibilities.

  • All training and skills development programs must provide value to both the sponsor of the training program (the organization) and the recipient of the training program (the student).

  • The value of all training and skills development programs must be measured against the attainment of organizational goals and objectives.
  

Minds in Action can help your organization build skills development strategies and curriculums to meet these goals.  Using the Skills Development and Assessment Octagon as a model, Minds in Action can provide a number of services to allow you to build effective training programs that positively impact your organization's goals.
 

The Skills Development and Assessment Octagon

The Skills Development and Assessment Octagon is a skills development and assessment model that approaches the development of organizational training programs as a strategic process that is integrated into all other facets of the business.  It is composed of eight stages, that when implemented as an integral part of a business initiative, identifies training needs, develops a program to address those needs, and measures the success of training against established business goals and objectives.
