Synopsis
"The strength of the book is its thoroughness and how it actually takes the reader inside the experience, step-by-step, of conducting a Needs Assessment…"
―Jody Bortone, Sacred Heart University
This book focuses on how results have to be utilized in an organization for an assessment to be considered a success. The authors describe the three phases of needs assessment in depth along with subtleties in implementing them.
Although this book can be used in a stand-alone fashion, it is part of the Needs Assessment KIT―five interrelated and sequenced books that take the reader through the needs assessment process (ISBN: 978-0-7619-2595-8).
