You are the director of adult education and training in a mid-size company. Recently, your supervisor has noticed the overall performance of one unit has declined significantly in the last few months. Consequently, your supervisor has inquired as to how you would go about improving the performance of this specific unit. Based upon this observation, you have decided to analyze this problem by using a systems view approach based upon the human performance technology (HPT) model.
Write a paper (4-6 pages) explaining how the HPT model can be used to stem this decline in performance. Include all of the following:
Relate the HPT model to adult learning environments. Evaluate the HPT model in designing instruction for adults. Explain the importance of conducting a gap analysis. Describe a training intervention solution for adults based upon a gap analysis.
