This will allow you time to complete your learning needs analysis prior to renewal of your registration which will be due in May each year. The Learning Needs Analysis module has two parts: The first part is the Learning Needs Analysis module. This will provide you with information to assist with completing the questionnaire. The next part is the Learning Needs Analysis Questionnaire. It has seven questions that require a written response. The instructions for completing the LNA are contained in each question.
