Training Needs Analysis { TNA }

TNA stands for Training Needs Analysis. It is the process of identifying the training and development needs of employees and volunteers in an organization. It considers the strategic objectives of the organization as well as the individual’s career goals to determine training needs. It helps in the process of identifying gaps between employee training needs and actual training performed. Training needs analysis is generally carried out at three levels: organizational, team, and individual level.
