Needs assessment
A needs assessment is a systematic
process for determining and addressing needs, or "gaps" between
current conditions and desired conditions or "wants". The discrepancy
between the current condition and wanted condition must be measured to
appropriately identify the need. The need can be a desire to improve current
performance or to correct a deficiency.

needs assessments
Training
needs assessment is a systematic inquiry of training needs within an
organization for the purposes of identifying priorities and making decisions,
and allocating finite resources in a manner consistent with identified program
goals and objectives. Though beginning with training as the desired solution,
it has been argued, diminishes the value of the needs assessment, the
popularity of the term "training needs assessment" has made it part
of the training and adult learning lexicon.
