What is the risk to your company if the learner fails to achieve the purpose of the training?

• Low risk and minimal consequences if the training is not remembered/used
• Low risk because the skill or process can only be completed one way and, therefore, requires less judgment
• High risk in real world if:
  • The skill or process can only be completed multiple ways and requires critical thought to weight factors
  • Consequences from failure are delayed hours, days, weeks or even years
• Variable risk:
  • Process steps are easily done wrong
  • Task is done infrequently

Key questions: How quickly or easily can your company fix mistakes from a lack of skill or knowledge AND how often will the learner use the training AFTER the training is done?
