What is Training Needs Analysis (TNA)?
Definition
Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is a systematic process of identifying skill and knowledge gaps within an organization or individual to determine what training is required. It examines current competencies against desired performance levels and surfaces where learning can close the gap. TNA is the foundation of any effective training strategy.
