What is a Training Plan?
Training plan is a description of how the training will be done, the flow of training from input to end results,
including the resources that will be used. The objective of the Training Plan is to define the strategies, tasks, and
methods that will be used to meet the training requirements.
The training plan will outline who will deliver the training, and when and where your apprentice or trainee
needs to go to receive the structured component of the training.
Note that it should be treated as a working document. It should be flexible enough to meet all the need of the
industry, your institution and thetrainee. Remember that you can talk about this at any stage during the training.

• the competencies to be obtained

• the name of the qualification to be issued
• any other specific requirements to be met in accordance withthe particular training contract in
