 CONTENT OF THE OSH TRAINING
PROGRAM

1. Needs assessment: training should first of all start with a

needs assessment, identifying the problems to be addressed.
2. Setting objectives: training objectives or goals establish the
results that the training should achieve.
3. Selection of content: depending on the objectives, the
selection of the content has to describe as precisely as
possible the information that must be presented to the group.
4. Methods: the final, equally important issue is how to present
the selected content, because this has a big influence on
how the presented material is memorized and put into
practice.
