Training Needs Assessment

Skills Gap Analysis for Building Stronger Industrial Maintenance Teams

When excessive downtime and broken machines are slowing you down, it might be a sign your team isn't skilled enough to handle your biggest maintenance challenges. If you're ready to offer training, but aren't sure where to start, TPC's Training Needs Assessment (TNA) is the first step. During a TNA, a training advisor from TPC will consult with you to help home in on your training-related challenge areas.

During the consultation, we'll work with you to identify the knowledge, skills, and maintenance tactics technical team members need to meet uptime goals.

We help reduce the gap between the maintenance results you expect and the realities your organization is facing. When completing a TNA, the TPC team will be able to spot the skill improvements needed to increase productivity. The results? A tailored recommendation of the perfect mix of courses and training styles to transform the team's skills.

In most cases, our training specialists can complete the assessment with you on one call or a few short calls.
