Study the Materials

DOE-HDBK-1103-96

The facilitator determines the nature of the problem to be examined during the

process and the status of expecteds and actuals. This will assist in determining

how long the process will take (i.e., from 2-5 days). Though this process may be

useful in other circumstances, the most common reasons a facility might want

this seminar are to:

Compare a training/qualification program with requirements of an Order,

Develop an initial and/or continuing training program for a job position that

already exists,

Conduct training program evaluation,

Resolve a specific human performance problem, or

Develop a specific training session.

For each of the above requests, a worksheet is provided in Appendix B to assist

the facilitator in determining the full scope of the request. When interfacing with

the coordinator, use the applicable Appendix B worksheet by:

Asking the questions and clarifying the expected outcomes listed under

Step 1, Clarify Request to Determine Problem,

Asking which documents are available for review during the seminar

(samples are listed under Step 2, Develop Analysis Plan), and

Stating which of those documents should be examined PRIOR to the

seminar.

Depending on the coordinator's answers, set a preliminary process date, location,

and length. It is better to be pessimistic in terms of the length of the process

(i.e., set it for 4 days if you think it might take 3). Once the process is

scheduled, the coordinator should be given a list of which documents require

review prior to the process.

Study the Materials. Once the TTNA process is scheduled, the facilitators

prepare by studying this handbook.

The facilitators must spend adequate time preparing to instruct the participants of

the TTNA process. It is crucial that the facilitators understand and apply the

techniques that may be used. To instruct and facilitate the workshop effectively,
