Training Strategy. BNH develops training strategies by identifying who needs to be trained on what and why; what is the most effective and economical venue for the delivery of training; and where budget and resources should be allocated. By building a business case for each training program, management will be better positioned to make informed decisions; monitor the impact of training; and quickly adapt as operational requirements change. Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as missions, goals, jobs, policies, equipment and so forth change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

Training Systems Requirements Analysis (TSRA) is typically initiated by US Military Commands once a training need is identified. BNH describes the basic purpose of the training platform, equipment, system and subsystems; type of training provided; location and performance requirements. In addition to identifying learning objectives, we provide the rationale for using training devices including viability, costs, availability and maintainability. Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as missions, jobs, policies, systems and so forth change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is crucial to operational readiness and mission success. TNA ensures that training is developing the right knowledge, skills and competencies, for the right individuals to attain specific operational/business needs. TNA is the base for all future training decisions. By aligning training with operational/business needs, BNH minimizes discrepancies between training requirements and training delivered, and maximizes training impact. In other words, employees will not waste valuable time on topics that are not relevant, and will receive all training needed to adequately perform their job. Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as missions, goals, jobs, policies, systems and so forth change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

Job Analysis is the formal process of identifying major job requirements – i.e., activities and attributes needed to perform the work. In addition to generating job descriptions/specifications to aid in hiring the right individuals, BNH documents job requirements – i.e., identifies all tasks performed by individuals as well as desired performance. Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as missions, goals, jobs, policies, systems and so forth change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

Training Option/Media Analysis can lead to significant savings without compromising performance. However, selecting the right balance is not easy. Dozens of interrelated factors impact the decision. For example, which options are available; which training activities are best suited for live, synthetic, or a mixture of the two; how much time, money, personnel and resources would each of these options require; and where will the savings come from? BNH has successfully completed hundreds of studies by building a model that considers all variables to identify the most cost effective solution. Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as requirements change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

Manpower, Personnel & Training (MPT). BNH identifies tasks and work-hours required to perform a job or function (Manpower Analysis); the ratings, occupational specialties and skill levels required to perform the job or function (Personnel Analysis); and training tasks or functions required for personnel to obtain skill levels necessary to operate and maintain the system, subsystem, or equipment (Training Analysis). Moreover, BNH stores all data in a centralized database that can be accessed and updated by clients 24/7 – to assess the impact on budget, personnel and resources as missions, goals, jobs, policies, systems and so forth change; and keep training effective, efficient and relevant.

ADVISOR Training. ADVISOR Enterprise is comprised of 6 modules that can be used separately or in combination to meets various needs; includes several concepts (such as Templates, Data Cascading, Repositories, Grouping of Objectives, etc.) to speed the analysis without compromising its integrity; and provides multiple admin, management and reporting tools including version control and data sharing. Moreover, ADVISOR is highly configurable. Users can specify data to be collected, analysis to be conducted as well as modify terminology in line with needs. To make the most of ADVISOR Enterprise and leverage its full capabilities, one day of training for each module is recommended. The training can be delivered on-site or online and tailored to the specific needs of your organization. See more.
ADVISOR Coaching and Support. Coaching and support is recommended for teams with minimal ADVISOR Enterprise experience or complex projects to minimize the learning curve and leverage ADVISOR’s full capabilities. Services may include: setup implementation plan; configure ADVISOR Enterprise in line with needs; setup cost and instructional design Templates/Resources; modify the ADVISOR terminology in line with needs; setup data classification system and search criteria; collect, upload and analyze data; develop custom functions/reports and so forth. See more.
ADVISOR Customization. ADVISOR Enterprise can be further customized in line with needs. This may include, for example, integration or exchanging data with other systems; generating specific types of reports; supporting specific requirements, analyses, functionality, trainers, simulators, and so forth. BNH guarantees that all customizations will be carried forward in all future releases at no additional cost to the client by maintaining all customizations within a single version, and controlling access to each custom built function through a unique ID assigned to each client. Moreover, ADVISOR’s flexible design allows BNH to provide custom built solutions at off-the-shelf pricing. See more.
Training Needs Analysis Workshop. BNH has been sharing our experience and expertise through public and custom built workshops for over twenty years. We have covered various topics including: technologies in distance learning and workplace training, needs assessment, performance analysis and how to select the right blend of delivery options. Recently, we designed a practical and highly interactive Training Needs Analysis workshop based on our 30 years’ experience in front end analysis that covers all the basics. See more.
“You gain critical knowledge for making informed decisions. As a result, costly errors can be avoided, and resources maximized by focusing on training initiatives that develop skills needed to attain business goals”.
Nancy Williams, Senior Associate, Booz Allen Hamilton.
“With ADVISOR, I can make changes on the spot and graphs demonstrate right away their impact. That enabled me to cut down my initial analysis from 30 days to one day.”
Cathi Billings, Instructional System Specialist, Sheppard AFB.
“ADVISOR simplified data validation. Tasks, including reference codes for each position, could easily be exported to Excel and sent to SMEs for review. A step that could have taken up to two-and-a-half weeks to perform is now generated with an hour.”
John Marley, SMC/RNT (STAO), USfalcon.
