Option $1$

Design a program to address a specific training need in an organization $($e$.$g$.$ a program to help the employees become competent in learning to use a new software, or helping employees enhance skills in their current role etc$).$ Your program design should include an explanation of what the training needs and training gaps are, along with a description of why the training program is important, and how it helps to support the organization. Your program should also discuss the implications of diversity of adult learners $($race$,$ age, generations, learning styles and differences, motivation and barriers, etc.$)$ as they relate to training in the workplace.

Option $2$

Advise the Management team of the present and future trends that will influence how training is developed in an organization. Discuss what are some of the economic, social, political or technological factors that affect training today. Then, examine two future trends that you believe will influence training, and provide evidence of these impending trends. As the Management team is interested in performance improvement, indicate which trend$($s$)$ you believe are ideal for the organization, to ensure effective training outcomes? $($see The Top Ford Future Trends $2018,15$ Trends that are Shaping the Future, $10$ Trends in Training and Development$).$
