Matrix of Training Needs

The matrix of training needs is one of the common HR tools that help to spot employees’ training needs, skills outcomes, and potential of an employee.

Here is a detailed list of the steps of the matrix of training needs:

Step 1

Get started by kicking off your skills matrix, for this, you need to know what skills and knowledge are needed to achieve the given tasks from the job descriptions. This includes being comprehensive and the willing to handle the things with the team, telling what they are doing at each stage of the work, tools used, and knowledge needed to tackle every task.

Step 2

Once you have a list, you can start thinking about how you are going to handle the team and what you think is more important. This indeed is the most challenging part of the process as it requires a degree in order to reach a considered conclusion.

 

Step 3

Rating ability can be tricky, but the more depth is there in the rating scale the better the analysis will be.

Step 4

Once you have chosen your method to measure and how you are going to score it, you need to bring it together into a matrix.

Now, you need to know how to implement the outcomes of the matrix of training needs:

You need to identify those who are ready to take on more skills, those who are ready for the promotion, who needs some extra support, you need to recognize the common training needs, you have to decide what should be the pay increment of an employee, and also which employees are at risk of reformation and downscaling.
