¶ … Organizational Analysis
The organization to be assessed for the training is an agency that provides Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act training to the private sector. The agency contracts with private educational systems and business enterprises to ensure their operations, facility, and employees are compliant with federal law. The training would need to cover the language of the federal law, implementation of the law across various industry sectors that are represented by the businesses, and processes for assessing employee knowledge regarding the law.
The agency is charged with ensuring that the businesses they train understand the importance of removing all structural barriers in the public areas of existing facilities, in as much as the removal of these structural barriers is readily achievable.

The more stringent a technical requirement is, the more access it provides for individuals with disabilities. Regardless, the barrier removal requirement that stands for existing facilities resides with the Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act and supersedes any local or state codes that may be less stringent.
Given this background the following section articulates the important tasks and knowledge, skill, and behaviors that need to be emphasized in training for employees to complete their tasks regarding barriers to access.
Employees must be trained to establish and attend to priorities as they are outlined by Title III regulations for planning barrier removal projects that are achievable. Priority one is accessible approach and entrance. Priority two is access to goods and services. Priority three is access to rest rooms. Priority four is any other measures necessary.

The Navy's HRM strength lies in both its employee selection process and criteria and performance appraisal management program. However, these processes are not without their inherent weaknesses.

This author notes that in some cases it is more appropriate for human resources trainer to create the situation, and at other times the trainees themselves can create situations based on their past experiences.
