Week 2: Individual Assignment Training Key Areas:

Write a 950- to 1,250-word paper in which you explain the importance of training in these areas, pertaining to the organization and individual. You, as an outside consultant, have been asked to explain the importance of training in three areas. Incorporate employee and organization motivation and information on offering training in these areas:

* Legal requirements
* Diversity
* Employee growth
* A definition of a delivery method and how it would be applied for the project
* Pros and cons of a different delivery method
* A recommendation of the delivery method you chose
* Coordinate prior to working individually, so different delivery methods are discussed. One team member, for example, might present a classroom delivery method, whereas another team member may present a Webinar, and a third member may present a Podcast. After the due date for the individual assignment passes, share your presentation with your Learning Team, so the team may hear your pitch or reasons why not to use a particular delivery method. If this is an online class, the presentation must include speaker’s notes for each slide, showing what you would say if you were delivering a 10-minute presentation.
