PARTICIPATION IN TABLE-TOP NEEDS ANALYSIS

As a person with a reputation for technical expertise, a positive work attitude, and good

interpersonal skills, you have been selected to participate with [number of people to be invited]

people as a team for a Table-Top Needs Analysis (TTNA) soon to take place for [name of job

position/program being assessed].

This 2-5 day process is an important step toward building a top-notch training program and

ensuring the accuracy of our operating procedures. The table-top approach used in this

process has proven to be an efficient, cost-effective, and pleasant way to resolve the

performance issue in question. The list of problematic areas that your team develops will then

serve as the foundation for determining its causes and effective solutions (training or non-

training) for its effective implementation that will eliminate our problem or concern.

I support your uninterrupted involvement in this 2-5 days process and also after the TTNA (as

necessary, to bring the process to completion ) and ask that you ensure its success by

contributing your positive energy and subject matter expertise.

If you are able to participate, please contact the Coordinator, [name and phone number of

coordinator]. If you have any questions about the purpose or end product of this process,

please contact [name of Coordinator] or myself. Thank you for your cooperation.
