Item 3: Send Thank-You Letters

each TTJA step. The following are example situations for which you might

need to complete some of the TTJA steps after the seminar:

1. The Facilitator will help the team identify all tasks involved in the job,

but due to time constraints, may not have time to help the team refine all

of the task statements to the point that they meet the criteria for a "well-

written" task statement.

2. The Facilitator will at least start the team in the process of selecting

tasks for training, but due to time constraints may not be able to go

through the process for every task.

3. If the right mix of people (SMEs and supervisors) is not involved

throughout the entire process, the task list may not be considered

"valid." Under these circumstances, you would need to conduct a

"validation" process to get appropriate signatures on the task list.

(Normally there is no need for a separate validation process when

appropriate people, as explained in this Guide, are involved.)

Within 10 working days after the seminar, send thank-you letters to all

participants.

Congratulations! You've come a long way toward helping your facility

implement the Systematic Approach to Training (SAT). This TTJA

seminar helped your facility perform the analysis phase of SAT. Use the

"pre-train," "train," and "overtrain" tasks identified in this seminar to design

your training program structure and determine the content of the training

program. One approach to the training program design is discussed in the

seminar titled "Table-Top Training Design" (TTTD).

Like TTJA, the TTTD seminar helps your facility progress through the

design phase of SAT and results in several design products, such as a

task-to-training matrix, training program description, and design

specifications for each training session. Since you have used a table-top

approach to develop the task list, you may want to consider using the

same participants in this TTTD seminar to continue building your

training program.
