Training needs analysis

Successful learning starts with understanding the problem you're trying to solve.

Aleido's training needs analysis (TNA) service helps organisations identify performance gaps, understand learner requirements and define the most effective learning solution. Rather than jumping straight into content development, we work with you to understand your business objectives, your people and the behaviours you want to change.

The result is learning that's targeted, measurable and designed to deliver meaningful business outcomes.

WHY CONDUCT A TRAINING NEEDS ANALYSIS?

Not every performance issue can be solved with training.

Sometimes the root cause lies in processes, systems, communication or organisational change. Our TNA helps you identify whether learning is the right solution – and, if it is, exactly what that learning should achieve.

By investing time in analysis at the start of a project, organisations can avoid unnecessary training, improve learner engagement and maximise return on investment.

A structured TNA helps organisations:

Align learning with business objectives
Identify genuine skills and knowledge gaps
Avoid unnecessary training investment
Improve learner engagement
Prioritise learning initiatives
Support organisational change
Measure learning effectiveness more accurately
Deliver better return on investment

OUR APPROACH

Every organisation is different, so every TNA is tailored to your business.

Working collaboratively with your stakeholders, we build a clear picture of:

Your business goals and strategic priorities
Current skills, knowledge and capability levels
Performance gaps and challenges
Target audiences and learner needs
Existing learning resources
Success measures and desired outcomes

This evidence-based approach ensures every recommendation is aligned with your organisational objectives.

HOW WE GATHER INSIGHTS

Our experienced learning consultants use a range of proven techniques to understand your organisation and identify learning requirements.

Depending on the project, this may include:

Stakeholder interviews
Workshops and discovery sessions
Learner surveys
Skills gap analysis
Job and task analysis
Process reviews
Performance data analysis
Observation and workplace research

By combining quantitative and qualitative insights, we create a complete picture of your learning needs.

WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE

Following the analysis, we'll provide clear, practical recommendations that help you move forward with confidence.

These may include:

A prioritised learning strategy
Audience segmentation and learner personas
Learning objectives and outcomes
Delivery recommendations (digital, blended or classroom)
Content recommendations
Assessment and evaluation approaches
A phased implementation roadmap

Whether the solution is bespoke e-learning, blended learning, performance support or a wider learning strategy, our recommendations are based on your needs – not a predetermined product.

WHY CHOOSE ALEIDO?

With more than 30 years of experience in workplace learning, we understand that effective learning begins long before content is created.

Our multidisciplinary team combines learning consultancy, instructional design, digital learning development and performance improvement expertise to ensure every recommendation is practical, evidence-based and aligned with your organisation's goals.

We don't simply ask, "What training do you need?"

We ask, "What do people need to do differently – and how can learning help achieve that?"

START WITH THE RIGHT FOUNDATION

Whether you're developing a single learning programme or planning an organisation-wide digital learning strategy, a TNA provides the insight needed to make informed decisions.

Our consultants will work alongside your team to identify priorities, define learning requirements and create a roadmap for successful learning.
