Testing/Validation

INSIGHTS approach to validation is based on our unique skills as a customer management source of excellence, the high quality tools and techniques we can bring to the project e.g. benchmarking reports, ongoing data collection from classroom and coaching sessions, training evaluation data and the use of automated tools such as SMS.

The testing/validation is designed to ensure that:-

• The training competencies have been effectively implemented within the operation.
• The competencies identified in the TNA phase are effective in all aspects of the job role (360 degree evaluation)
• The phases of validation may thus be defined as :-
• Ensuring that the employee understands the competencies covered in training
• Ensuring that the employee can effectively implement those competencies
• Assessing if those competencies are proving effective for the employee
• Identifying recurrent training programs and any alterations to the TNA
