Assignment 3: ATD Competency Check
Learning and Development in a Selected Organization
(15% of final grade)
See Course Schedule for Due Date
For this assignment, you will use your Assignment 2: Needs Analysis and the ATD Impacting Organizational Capability competencies (https://tdcapability.org/#/).
In your first assignment, you started the case study that gave you context for your course project and helped you to determine the foundational knowledge about your organization. In the second assignment, you completed the needs analysis for your organization. The needs analysis shows the needs for learning and development in the organization, which allows you to see both the strengths your organization currently has and the opportunities for development. These opportunities will help you complete a competency check.
Assignment 3’s Competency Check will give you the chance to use the Association for Talent Development’s (ATD) Talent Development Capability Model. This model is broken into three areas:
• Building Personal Capability
• Developing Professional Capability
• Impacting Organizational Capability
For Assignment 3, you want to explore the three areas of the model. Your focus should be on the competencies that would help you with your organization’s training and development needs. While some organizations may utilize all the capabilities and skills listed, you want to explore the model and begin to pull out items that would be most relevant to the scenario you have created for your course project.
For Assignment 3, you want to choose three (3) capabilities from the Talent Development Capability Model focus areas. The knowledge and skills statements from each capability willhelp you begin to conceptualize how you would best use this item.
Once you have a minimum of three (3) capabilities from any of the three focus areas, you will use that capability and corresponding knowledge and skills statements to review two specific elements:
1. Definition of the capability
2. Knowledge and skill statement
Using these capabilities, review your Needs Analysis. Think about how you can use the ATD Talent Development Capability Model competencies to address the needs you uncovered in your analysis. Begin to brainstorm on how you could potentially address the needs based on the ATD guidelines. This will be helpful in your final assignment.
The final product for this assignment should be a visual chart. You want to show how the needs of your organization can be supported with a competency and/or knowledge and skills statement from ATD. This will help you complete your final project.
You can use application like Lucidchart, Visual Chart, Piktochart, MindMeister, MindMup.
