Subject: Free Mgt Training & Dev. Needs Analysis Tool

The Westinghouse Electric Corporation (WEC) and the US Department of Energy (DOE) announce the availability of the Management Training & Development Needs Analysis (MTDNA) tool to US organizations at NO COST.

In support of business outreach efforts, volunteer WEC managers developed this paper-and-pencil instrument for systematically identifying management training and development needs. The MTDNA consists of a survey containing 47 core management tasks, a participant's guide, and an evaluator's guide. This is a complete, turnkey package which can be administered without modification. MTDNA employs a streamlined version of the DIF (Difficulty-Importance-Frequency) job analysis model.

DOE and WEC are making the MTDNA available through their joint technology transfer program. Based on previous usage, we anticipate that consultants will use it commercially; businesses, and non-profit organizations will use it internally; and educational institutions will use it as a learning tool in the classroom.

Now for the brave new world. In the past, we collected applications for technology transfer via e-mail, fax, and snail mail. We then processed the paper and filled requests on 3.5" disks via snail mail. To reduce turnaround time and costs, we are going to do the MTDNA transfer totally electronically. To obtain the MTDNA and non-exclusive intellectual property rights at no cost, please review the application provided below, complete section III and VII, and e-mail the ENTIRE application to ME (not to the list, please!)
