Once a decision has been made that individuals in given professions or job roles require training, the Job Task Analysis is used to determine the actual training requirements for each job role. 

The Job Task Analysis is the cornerstone of any effective training and assessment program. 

Using the knowledge of individuals already performing the targeted job, along with experts familiar with the direction being sought by your business initiatives, the Job Task Analysis determines the specific training requirements and objectives used to measure mastery of the job role.

An effective Job Task Analysis determines the following:

	The actual job tasks performed by members of a given profession.
	The environment in which the job tasks are performed and the competence level required of individuals in the targeted profession.
	The knowledge, skills, and attitudes an individual must possess to master the job.
	The skills a typical member of the profession has, and the skill gaps that must be remedied by training.
	The most critical tasks that a member of the profession must master.
	Objectives that, when tested, evaluate an individual's mastery of the profession.

By performing a Job Task Analysis before creating a training, assessment, or professional certification program, you are helping to ensure that the training and testing are valid and address the true needs of your organization. 

The Job Task Analysis removes the guessing and biases that often accompany training and testing decisions by using true experts from within your organization to develop the knowledge and skills domain.
