What is
the Training
Toolkit?
Welcome to
the Training
Toolkit.
This web
site will
provide the
user with
an array
of advice,
tools, and
knowledge
on how to
design and
develop effective
learning
solutions
for clients
and employees.
Evaluation
Phase
During
the
Evaluation
phase,
you
examine
the
extent
in
which
the
training
has
achieved
the
performance
objectives
developed
during
the
Design
phase.
You
identify
what
needs
to
be
measured
and
the
method
you
will
use
to
gather
results
data.
Data
is
typically
captured
on
the
learner’s
reaction
to
the
learning
experience,
the
knowledge
gained
and
the
transfer
of
skills
to
the
job.
This
data
is
then
analyzed
and
reported
to
your
client
and
key
stakeholders.
|
Consulting
Skills
The
instructional
design
process
depends
on
effective
use
of
consultative
skills.
You
will
work
in
partnership
with
your
client
and
key
stakeholders
to
identify
needs,
design
and
develop
a
solution
and
then
implement
and
evaluate
the
solution.
You
will
need
to
listen,
educate
and
offer
advice
to
your
client.
These
skills
are
what
hold
the
entire
design
process
together.
|
Administration
Like
any
other
process,
there
are
many
administrative
tasks
that
need
to
be
taken
care
of
during
all
five
phases
of
the
process.
These
administrative
tasks
can
help
make
or
break
the
learner
experience
and
staying
on
top
of
the
details
is
critical.
|
Implementation
Phase
The
Implementation
phase
is
when
you
deliver
your
developed
learning
experience.
First
you
will
pilot
your
program
to
a
sample
of
your
target
audience
and
then
determine
what
modifications
or
enhancements
are
needed.
Then
you
will
rollout
the
learning
experience
to
your
target
audience.
|
Design
Phase
During
the
Design
phase,
you
identify
the
appropriate
solution
to
close
the
gap
between
the
desired
and
actual
performance.
A
solution
is
designed,
whether
it
be
a
classroom-based
training
program,
e-learning,
self-study,
on-the-job
training
or
a
blend
of
a
variety
of
instructional
design
methods.
During
this
phase
you
create
performance
objectives
based
on
the
outcomes
you
are
trying
to
achieve,
and
then
design
a
learning
experience
based
on
those
objectives.
The
result
is
a
high-level
design
document
that
is
validated
by
your
client
and/or
key
stakeholders
and
serves
as
the
blueprint
for
your
solution.
|
Development
Phase
During
the
Development
Phase,
use
the
High-Level
Design
Document
to
work
with
subject
matter
experts
(SMEs)
to
create
instructional
materials
to
support
the
learning
experience.
For
classroom-based
learning
this
may
include
participant
workbooks,
instructor
guides,
visuals,
prework
and
handouts.
If
you
are
designing
an
online
learning
experience,
you
may
develop
slides
for
your
Placeware/WebEx/LN
Presenter
session
supporting
materials.
For
on-the-job
training
you
may
be
developing
task
training
checklists,
reference
materials
and
job
aids.
These
materials
are
then
reviewed
and
approved
for
a
pilot
test.
|
Analysis
Phase
The
Analysis
phase
is
the
examination
of
the
gap
between
the
desired
performance
and
actual
performance
and
the
reasons
for
this
gap.
The
gap
in
performance
might
be
due
to
a
lack
of
skill,
knowledge,
aptitude,
or
a
host
of
other
factors
that
impact
performance.
During
this
phase
you
gather
data
to
determine
the
root
cause
of
the
performance
issue
or
opportunity
and
determine
the
appropriate
solution—whether
it
is
training
or
another
intervention.

The Training
Toolkit is
organized
into seven
phases and
activities
that make
up the instructional
design process.
Roll your
cursor over
each of the
phase names
on the graphic
to learn
more
about
them. Click
on the phase
you wish
to explore
to navigate
to its Frequently
Asked Questions.
To learn

the benefits
and ways
to use the
toolkit to
help you,
