Important to this first day, are discussions of performance-based training, the fundamentals of training (jobs, duties, tasks, and steps to include performance objectives) and how human performance and training are inextricably linked. Knowing about human performance and how to apply human performance principles are crucial to designing, developing, and managing an effective technical training function.
