    Study Notes

    ANSI Z490.1

    • The ASSE serves as secretariat to the ANSI accredited committee that developed the American National Standard: Criteria for Accepted Practices in Safety, Health, and Environmental Training.
    • The number of this standard is: ANSI Z490.1.

    Analysis

    • Analysis involves the validation of training needs and objectives, the assessment of needs, or even if training is needed.

    Design and Development

    • Design and Development incorporate the identifying and assembling the methodology and materials needed to accomplish the training.
    • Design should be based on the findings of the analysis.

    Implementation

    • Implementation involves the actual performance of the training activity, whether it is classroom instruction, self-paced, on-the-job, or other form of training.

    Evaluation

    • Evaluation is any process that determines if the objectives were accomplished and the desired outcomes were achieved.
    • Evaluation occurs after (and sometimes during) training and can feed into the beginning of the next training cycle, testing participants at the end of training.

    Steps for a Successful Training Program

    • The steps to a successful training program include analysis, design and development, implementation and evaluation/improvement.

    Safety Professional

    • As a facility safety professional, you will become acquainted with two-line employees who want to learn more about occupational safety in their work environments beyond typical training courses.

    Declarative Memory

    • Declarative memory is the cognitive information retrieved from explicit memory; knowledge that can be declared.

    Procedural Knowledge

    • Experts generally have highly refined procedural knowledge rather than declarative knowledge of their expertise.

    Reward

    • When dealing with reward, intrinsic is more powerful than extrinsic, however, the instructor has less ability to influence intrinsic.

    Feedback

    • The principle that relies on learners' responses, and is dependent on the instructor for follow-up information, is feedback.

    Lecture as a Teaching Method

    • Lecture is a classic method of teaching.
    • The term that refers to the scale used in the evaluation process where participants are asked to rate their level of agreement on a scale of 1 to 10 is the Likert Scale.

    Course Objectives

    • Content-based objectives are generally based on course materials. Multiple-choice tests are often effective for evaluating content-type objectives.

    Workplace Research

    • While researching the workplace for an upcoming training class, the instructor assesses the general backgrounds of the workers and assesses their group and individual motivations for attending training.

    Learning/Ability Prior Knowledge and Motivation

    • Three factors that have been identified through research that affect how well and how much we learn are learning ability, prior knowledge and motivation.

    Which Level of Evaluation?

    • The determination of whether there is a problem worth solving and if training or instruction is the best solution is part of the evaluation. phase of instructional preparation and the first step in developing training is the development of objectives.

    Training Evaluation Levels

    • Reaction- measures participant satisfaction with the training
    • Learning- measure the extent to which learning has occurred
    • Behavior- measures if the implemented skills and knowledge are used correctly
    • Results- measures business impact of the implemented skills and knowledge

    Instructional Design Elements

    • Initiation, presentation, measurement and assessment.
    • Development, presentation, testing and assessment.
    • Registration, presentation, evaluation, certification.

    Objective Tests

    • Specific questions designed to measure the trainee's comprehension of course objectives.
    • Usually quantitative in nature.

    Attitude Surveys

    • Help identify changes in attitudes, common to work habits, motivation and beliefs. This would be categorized qualitative in nature.

    Simulation and Observation

    • When used effectively, the instructor can observe the trainee during a job simulation to evaluate if the desired skills have transferred.

    Training Delivery Methods

    • Instructor-led training-- traditional training methods
    • On-the-job training-- training that occurs in real time inside the workplace.
    • Self-paced training-- learners work through the training content on their own time and at their own pace.
