_1_Executive+Summary

Start with the end in mind. Rebecca asked us what we wanted this project to look like at the end. I thought I'd start putting some of it together. This follows Gupta's form - NA Rpt template. I'll put this in Googlewave for brainstorming.

Overview
This needs assessment was conducted to map out a base foundation of skills and knowledge that will serve as the basis for planning and tracking the professional development of newly hired college graduates into the engineering organization of NetApp. Having a clear development plan will focus the NCG to build on a core set of workplace competencies consisting of both hard and soft skills for their success and job satisfaction.
