Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:

  1. Provide
    an overview of the organization for which you are to develop the
    training. The overview should include, at a minimum, the
    organization’s mission, vision, management structure, corporate
    culture, geographic location(s), community involvement, and experience
    in providing training and development activities.
  2. Specify the

    use, and attitude toward learning. Evaluate the intended audience’s
    level of familiarity with technology overall.
  4. Assess the degree
    to which the members of your intended audience are self-directed in
    their learning overall. Suggest the manner in which their
    self-directedness—or lack thereof—may affect the likelihood that
    they would successfully compete the training.
  5. Select the
    theoretical basis for the planned training (i.e., andragogy or one of
    the other theoretical models on adult learning). Provide a rationale for
    your selection.

    instructional resources (media, materials, technology) needed to teach
    the task, and student activities needed to learn competent performance
    of task.

    strategies that you would use in order to accommodate the learners who
    may not be familiar with technology.
  5. Propose a timeline for
    development and implementation of the training, providing a rationale
    for your views. Determine how the selected theoretical model and the
    intended audience characteristics could influence the time needed to
    develop and teach the identified tasks.
