ADDIE MODEL ASSESSMENT

The first step of the ADDIE Model is Assessment. Assessment data must be used to identify gaps between where an organization is performing and where they want to be. This gap could exist due to a strategic or organizational level change or issue (Strategic Analysis), the way tasks are defined or performed within the organization (Task Analysis), or the knowledge, skills, and abilities of the employees within the organization (Person Analysis). SHRM provides information in addition to your text that gives not only detailed outline, but also case studies: https://www.shrm.org/foundation/ourwork/initiatives/resources-from-past-initiatives/Documents/Learning%20System%20Design.pdf (Links to an external site.)
