In this two-part deliverable assessment, first, create a 5–7 slide elevator-speech style presentation that you will present to stakeholders that provides an overview of policy implementation, including rationale and data that reflect the need for the new policy. Second, create a detailed, annotated training agenda for the pilot team that will accompany your presentation.

**Introduction**
Training and educating those within an organization who are responsible for implementing and working with changes in organizational policy is a critical step in ensuring that prescribed changes have their intended benefit. A leader in a healthcare profession must be able to apply effective leadership, management, and educational strategies to ensure that colleagues and subordinates will be prepared to do the work that is asked of them.
As a master's-level healthcare practitioner, you may be asked to design training sessions to help ensure the smooth implementation of any number of initiatives in your healthcare setting. The ability to create an agenda that will ensure your training goals will be met, and will fit into the allotted time, is a valuable skill for preparing colleagues to be successful in their practice.
This assessment offers you an opportunity to develop and implement effective educational strategies.
**Instructions**
In this assessment, inform the leadership stakeholders of a planned pilot project to test the implementation of your new policy. Describe the policy in an elevator-speech style, explain why the policy is needed, and why the group was chosen for the pilot. Then, develop a detailed training agenda that will describe the training needed, including any resources, number and times of classes (including length) and if there will be any skills training and return demonstrations or written exams. Connect the pilot to the benchmarks you will measure. As a result of this presentation, stakeholders are expected to:
· Understand the organizational policy and practice guidelines to be implemented.
· Understand the importance of the policy to improving quality or outcomes.
· Understand how the designated role group is key to successful implementation.
· Have awareness of the necessary knowledge and skills for successful implementation.
**Elevator Speech Presentation**
Record a 5-minute recorded slide presentation for your elevator speech. Be sure to include:
· A brief description of the policy and why it is necessary to improve benchmark metrics or comply with new regulations.
· Include a description of the pilot group and why they were chosen to demonstrate the change in workflow and improve quality of care.
· Describe the metrics that will be used to determine current practice and compare it after the training has ended.
· Summarize the training implementation.
**Annotated Training Agenda**
You will also develop an agenda for the training sessions, including:
· Length and number of class sessions.
· Location of classes—simulation lab, classroom, et cetera.
· The resources needed for the courses, any teaching staff, equipment, technology, or supplies needed.
· What teaching strategies will be employed to measure learner success, including any check-off lists or written exams (you do not have to provide the actual exam)?
· How will employees be scheduled and who will maintain records of completion, any grades, or skills verification?
· Any credit that will be provided to the staff (that is, continuing education credits).
· Plans to train the rest of the staff and new employees following the pilot.
· The follow-up plan for assessing sustainability.
Use the
[Annotated Training Agenda Template [DOCX]](https://courseroom.capella.edu/courses/42142/files/7645573/download) to develop your agenda.

**## 6004_Instructions_Assessment3.docx**
In this two-part deliverable assessment, first, create a 5–7 slide elevator-speech style presentation that you will present to stakeholders that provides an overview of policy implementation, including rationale and data that reflect the need for the new policy. Second, create a detailed, annotated training agenda for the pilot team that will accompany your presentation.

**Introduction**
Training and educating those within an organization who are responsible for implementing and working with changes in organizational policy is a critical step in ensuring that prescribed changes have their intended benefit. A leader in a healthcare profession must be able to apply effective leadership, management, and educational strategies to ensure that colleagues and subordinates will be prepared to do the work that is asked of them.
As a master's-level healthcare practitioner, you may be asked to design training sessions to help ensure the smooth implementation of any number of initiatives in your healthcare setting. The ability to create an agenda that will ensure your training goals will be met, and will fit into the allotted time, is a valuable skill for preparing colleagues to be successful in their practice.
This assessment offers you an opportunity to develop and implement effective educational strategies.
**Instructions**
In this assessment, inform the leadership stakeholders of a planned pilot project to test the implementation of your new policy. Describe the policy in an elevator-speech style, explain why the policy is needed, and why the group was chosen for the pilot. Then, develop a detailed training agenda that will describe the training needed, including any resources, number and times of classes (including length) and if there will be any skills training and return demonstrations or written exams. Connect the pilot to the benchmarks you will measure. As a result of this presentation, stakeholders are expected to:
· Understand the organizational policy and practice guidelines to be implemented.
· Understand the importance of the policy to improving quality or outcomes.
· Understand how the designated role group is key to successful implementation.
· Have awareness of the necessary knowledge and skills for successful implementation.
**Elevator Speech Presentation**
Record a 5-minute recorded slide presentation for your elevator speech. Be sure to include:
· A brief description of the policy and why it is necessary to improve benchmark metrics or comply with new regulations.
· Include a description of the pilot group and why they were chosen to demonstrate the change in workflow and improve quality of care.
· Describe the metrics that will be used to determine current practice and compare it after the training has ended.
· Summarize the training implementation.
**Annotated Training Agenda**
You will also develop an agenda for the training sessions, including:
· Length and number of class sessions.
· Location of classes—simulation lab, classroom, et cetera.
· The resources needed for the courses, any teaching staff, equipment, technology, or supplies needed.
· What teaching strategies will be employed to measure learner success, including any check-off lists or written exams (you do not have to provide the actual exam)?
· How will employees be scheduled and who will maintain records of completion, any grades, or skills verification?
· Any credit that will be provided to the staff (that is, continuing education credits).
· Plans to train the rest of the staff and new employees following the pilot.
· The follow-up plan for assessing sustainability.
Use the
[Annotated Training Agenda Template [DOCX]](https://courseroom.capella.edu/courses/42142/files/7645573/download) to develop your agenda.

Ensure you provide speaker notes for each slide to fully address scoring guide criteria.
What to submit:
· PowerPoint presentation.
· Recorded PowerPoint presentation, including audio track.
