What is Training Needs Analysis (TNA)?

A systematic process for identifying the gaps between current employee skills and the skills required to meet business objectives, used to prioritize and design targeted training interventions.

Why it matters in hiring

Training Needs Analysis (TNA) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
