Organizations conduct employee training and development for a variety of reasons. Training and development is used to engage process improvement, to implement new policies, or to ensure that employees learn or maintain knowledge and skills to perform their job. A training plan is set up to either deal with issues or prevent issues from happening.

Choose a real-world organization (other than the military) and examine what you can find online regarding their internal training and development. You may also set up a face-to-face meeting with an HR professional in an organization for an interview. Attend the meeting prepared with specific questions. Write a 500-750-word summary of the implemented training plan and describe the issue(s) that are hoped to be addressed through the training. End your paper with a brief assessment of how the organization evaluates the quality and effectiveness of their training plan.

Support your paper with course materials and at least three (3) additional sources. Use correct APA format throughout. Required word count does not include the title and reference pages. An abstract is not required. Consult the Writing Assignment Grading Rubric to ensure you are meeting the assignment’s criteria as this information and the rubric will be used to assess your work.
