Training Needs Analysis: Regional Ops Team

1. Skill Gap Analysis

The primary gap is ‘Technical Standards’—moving from Wi-Fi 6 to Wi-Fi 7. Automation skills are also a medium-level gap, causing significant ‘time waste’ in daily reporting.

2. Training Priorities

  1. Wi-Fi 7 Professional Deployment (High Urgency)
  2. Low-Code Workflow Automation (Efficiency)
  3. Regional Vendor SLA Negotiation (Scalability)

3. Non-Training Fixes

Address template standardization and tool access (Sandbox environments) before training begins to ensure the skills can actually be applied.

4. 90-Day Roadmap

Month 1: Tech Certification. Month 2: Automation Sprint. Month 3: Negotiation Workshops & Progress Audit.
