Second Model Status Report

Training Model Designed for A Guarantee Company

Orientation: Presciptive.
My training model is a prescriptive model. It describes how to carry out analysis, how to identify training objectives, how to design and implement the training and how to conduct evaluation, the non-training interventions are considered as well. In general, the model outlines how the training/learning environment should be constructed and developed in order to achieve desired outcomes (Employees engage in their work/develop related competency/perform appropriately / increase of e working efficiency).

Knowledge structure: hProcedural
It is important to determine the type of tasks the model is intended to support: either procedural (how to reach a goal), or declarative (why we reach a goal) (Edmonds, Branch and Mukherjee, 1994). There are three major tasks for this model: explain company’s policies to the novice employees, regulate employees’ business performance, and help them develop professional competencies. The training focuses on training employees how to achieve desired learning objectives, so it should be a procedural model.

Expertise Level: Novice
This is a model appropriate for the novice instructional designers. The training model consists of three major parts: how to design and provide efficient and effective internal training, how to help employees select the most appropriate external training course, and how to develop non-training interventions. The model explains in detail on how to perform in different parts.

Structure:Novice/System-Based
As I have mentioned above, this model is appropriate for the novice instructional designer. Moreover, the model draws from the ADDIE model, and provides detailed step-by-step guidelines for the systematic design of instruction.

Context: business context
This training model is intended to be applied in a new guarantee company, so it is a business training model.

Level: unit-level
Considering the number of the participants is not big, and the training topics and tasks are specified, the training will be applied upon the unit-level.
