Timeline

The first night of class

Direction

Distribute an NOA Analysis Diagram to each participant in the program and
review the content with him/her. Then:

¾ distribute the Learner’s Guide – Technical Skills Inventory (TSI) to

each participant;

¾ distribute the personalized TSI to each participant;

¾ summarize the directions for completing the TSI;

¾ advise the participants to review each sub-task and put a 9 in the

column that best describes their self-assessment of their skill:

o Yes, I did this

o I need to work on this

o Not sure what this means

¾ advise participants to include any comments they may have; and

¾ collect TSIs when participants have completed them.

It should take approximately 20 minutes for a participant to complete their

individual TSI. If some take longer, do not rush them.

Advise participants that you will meet with them at the half-way point of

the program to give them feedback on their TSI. Advise them that in the

meantime, you will be collecting the information from each TSI and

compiling it for the instructor so he/she can prepare materials for the

Essential Skills Program.
