HRM 5340 - Needs Assessment (1)

This course is the first in a series of 3 one-credit courses providing information and insight into the managerial function of training and development. Specifically, students will:  conduct appropriate needs assessment strategies to determine potential training opportunities; write learning objectives that clearly articulate training goal; articulate learning gaps in behavioral terms.  The overall approach is to develop leadership skills centering on changing employee behavior or developing new employee behaviors. Students gain the terminology needed to explain why training is effective.  Each course in the series addresses elements of human resources development process (Hughes & Bird, 2017): assessment of needs; development of materials; and, selection of methods, delivery, and evaluation of training. As a result of completing the series of 3 courses, students are prepared to select, plan, implement and evaluate training interventions focused on meeting adult learners’ needs.  This course is co-listed with HRM 4340. Learners who have successfully completed HRM 4340 may not also take HRM 5340 for graduate credit. Prerequisite(s): MGT 5310  or MGT 5320  or MGT 5325  or MGT 5340  or HRM 5960  or concurrent.
