What is the main focus of the Implementation Phase in TNA?

The main focus of the Implementation Phase in Training Needs Assessment (TNA) is teaching the official lesson plan. This phase is where the designed training materials and methods are put into practice in order to achieve the training objectives. During implementation, instructors deliver the content as outlined in the lesson plans, ensuring that participants receive the intended instruction and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills. It is crucial during this stage to facilitate learning effectively, engage learners, and assess comprehension of the material delivered.

While reviewing existing literature can provide context and background information, it does not take place during the implementation phase as it typically occurs beforehand during the analysis or design phases. Identifying requisite skills and determining tasks and behaviors are essential in the planning stages of TNA, where the needs and gaps in skills are assessed to form a basis for what needs to be taught. However, these activities are separate from the core focus of implementation, which centers on executing the lesson plans in a live training environment.
