The Dragvol University of Technology aspires to be the best in Ghana providing education with cutting edge technology. Located in Atimatim in the Kwabre District of the Ashanti Region, the University has been in operation for the past 5 years. The Dragvol University of Technology does not compromise on quality when it comes to the recruitment and selection of its academic and non-academic staff. Over the past few years, the student’s population has grown steadily as the institution’s recruit students predominantly from the Ashanti Region. Developments with the Internet, and increased access to large bandwidth, have made distance learning (or “e-learning”) available to a much larger audience in Ghana now. As part of its effort to bring education to the doorstep of the general populace, the Dragvol University of Technology intends to adopt a state-of-the-art e-learning system called Moholt Alle 3-52. Moholt Alle 3-52 is highly revered in academic circles in the West since it affords its stakeholders with a virtual workspace that mimics what happens in the real world of work. Accordingly, they can deliver to the best of their potential irrespective of their loci. The Dragvol University of Technology also intends to run a training program for the stakeholders that will be affected to facilitate their adoption and usage of the Moholt Alle 3-52. Prior to this, the University was using only the lecture approach where the Lecturers met the students face-to-face. But the COVID-19 pandemic has thought them a lesson that online education is the future as it ensured continuity in most other university’s education. The Dragvol University of Technology has approached you for some advice on how they can prepare the grounds before the new system Moholt Alle 3-52 will be in full force. Required: 1. Identify any 3 of the university’s stakeholders that will be affected by the new system and explain why?  2. As an HRD interventionist, advise them on the importance of training needs analysis for the intended e-learning system training program.  3. Discuss how they can successfully conduct a training needs analysis for the intended e-learning system training program.  4. Discuss whether in your opinion, it will be appropriate to adopt a formative or summative evaluation or both to assess the effectiveness of the training program and provide a reasoned justification for your answer.
