WCTC’s Corporate Training Center (CTC) is committed to providing high quality professional development training and services for individuals and the
business community . We are proud to serve as your central training resource .
As you consider your training needs, it might be helpful to conduct a brief self-assessment to identify the most appropriate training opportunities .
To guide this process, you may want to consider the following set of questions:
Identifying Your Training Needs – Where to Begin
• In my current role, are there responsibilities that I am expected to
perform that require improved technical skills?
• Are there areas of my job that I struggle in managing or executing
on a consistent basis? Would project management, task/time
management, or other management tools be beneficial?
• Within my organization, I am known for my ability to (identify one or
two things) . Within one year, I will also be known for (skill or expertise
to develop) .
• If there is a goal I am striving to achieve, what is holding me back? Would
I benefit from career goal setting or a talent assessment?
• Do I have a responsibility to supervise others? Am I bringing out the
best in them? If not, is this a training opportunity for me? How might I
support them through training?
• If I were to identify my next career step, what knowledge or skill will I need
to acquire and demonstrate in order to be considered a viable candidate?
If you identified areas where additional training would provide you a competitive advantage, consider us a partner in accelerating your career .
