Learning Needs Analysis Framework - Evaluation

Monday, 13 April, 2015

The current pilot “Evaluating the capability of an electronic system to create a robust LNA tool”, is the third strand of the Learning Needs Analysis Framework (LNAF) project commenced in September 2011, undertaken on behalf of Greater Manchester Health Innovation and Education Cluster (GMHIEC), to support all Trusts through the learning needs analysis process. The LNAF was designed specifically to support all NHS patient-facing staff in bands 1-8 (non-medical) through the learning needs cycle to enable NHS Trusts to undertake the necessary actions involved in the LNA process. Health Education North West is pleased to share the findings of this report, which should help organisations interested in considering and implementing the type of development reported here.  However, Health Education North West needs to indicate that it is not recommending specific tools and would encourage organisations to review the recommendations offered in taking forward any developments, which best meets, their needs.The LNAF Pilot aimed to investigate whether an electronic tool can collect and provide the information needed to undertake a LNA from an individual, organisation and LETB perspective and test the functionality of Inspire and its potential to support each stage within the LNA Framework covering four elements:

  • Behaviours
  • Objectives
  • Personal development
  • Evidence journal
