WHICH ARE THE TRAINING ACTIVITIES PEOPLE CAN ATTEND?
...
As a team leader you have the most detailed picture of your team and their training needs. Most importantly, you have access to the daily work of your activity. GLAD is there to build on this experience and help guide the professional development of your team in the way that is most helpful . to you, your activities and objectives. GLAD is also there to ensure that training is not disruptive but rather organic and fits well with what is happening on the shop floor. In addition, GLAD is also able to obtain economies of scale and to organise comprehensive learning solutions when combining the requests from the whole project.

It all starts with good communication and good dialogue with your team members. It goes into observations of how the work happens, taking special note of bottlenecks and problems that arise. In the learning world, bottlenecks can be indicative of the lack of knowledge, skill or awareness, and thus creating pathways to the learning opportunities. However, one must remember that not all problems are of the knowledge/skill origin, so not all problems can be resolved through learning.
In assessing your the learning needs it is also important to benchmark current level of team knowledge/skill to that of the industry and/or other organisations. Benchmarking is often an indicator of what we might want to start doing or learn how to do better.
Check out the Guiding GuestionsQuestions we put together to help with assessing training needs of your team.

- Primary needs, those that are outlined in the Technical Annex or those that directly effect project deliverables. These requiests requests will be executed.
- Associate needs, those needs that will be executed only if they are supported by the GN4.3 project participants and there are available resources.
In case of a great number of competing requests, the following criterial can be applied to further facilitate the prioritisatioprioritisation
- strategic importance and industry benchmarking. (What are the long-term investments?)
- viable alternatives. (Are there alternatives such as online courses?, etc)
- economies of scale, gaining financial benefits through larger numbers. (Can training requests be grouped to obtain the larger scale?)
