The plan

 
Refer to the background and scenario for assignments 1-3.
Write a paper in which you address the following:
Part 1: Training Method and Justification

For each of the trainings, you will:

Describe the training and delivery method.
Describe the assessment method for each training.
Justify your choice of delivery method and training.

Use as much concrete data as possible, including:

Time to develop the training or to implement a COTS training product.
Cost of the training method (cost to develop or purchase, as well as incidental costs, such as the need for additional equipment, software, or space).
Cost of assessment.
Cost of employee time in training.

Include adult learning theory in your justification

Note: Feel free to use a different training method and assessment method for each training.
Part 2: Assess Training Effectiveness

Justify your evaluations with both cost information as well as adult learning theory.
