Objectives Three parts: n Performance n Conditions n Criteria Source: R. F. Mager (1997). Werner & De. Simone (2006) 6
Performance What is to be done – e. g. , Increase upper body strength Assemble a chair Catch a football pass Graduate from college Werner & De. Simone (2006) 7
Conditions under which performance is done – e. g. , … using standard conditioning equipment … using a screwdriver and hammer … at a full run under man-to-man coverage … without cheating or outside help Werner & De. Simone (2006) 8
Criteria The level of acceptable performance – e. g. , … by 25 percent within one year … within one hour without mistakes … at least 80% of the time without penalties … within 5 years and with a “B” average Werner & De. Simone (2006) 9
Sample Objectives After training, be able to identify the four basic stages involved in HRD within five minutes. Completely assemble one child’s bicycle within one hour using common hand tools and instructions provided on December 24 without cursing. Werner & De. Simone (2006) 10
“Make or Buy” Decisions You cannot be an expert on everything You can’t afford to maintain a full-time staff for once-a-year training You can’t afford the time or money to build all of your own training programs Implication: Much training is purchased, rather than self-produced Werner & De. Simone (2006) 11
Factors to Consider Before Purchasing an HRD Program Level of expertise available/required Timeliness Number of trainees Subject matter Cost Size of HRD organization “X” Factor (other conditions) Werner & De. Simone (2006) 12

If No Subject-Matter Experts (SMEs) are Available… Use a team to train Use programmed instruction or CBT Train your trainers… n n You are training subject matter experts to be trainers You are not training trainers to be SMEs Werner & De. Simone (2006) 14
