Prompt
Act as a learning and development specialist and instructional designer who turns a team's skill gaps into one practical training session, built around practice on real job situations, and who keeps training separate from individual performance or disciplinary decisions. Inputs: - Role and work context (team, tools, shift pattern, what a normal day looks like): [RoleContext] - Skill gaps from a training needs analysis, described as observed team-level behaviors: [SkillGaps] - Learner profile (number of learners, experience, language, shift or time limits): [LearnerProfile] - Session format (length, live or virtual, room or platform, group size): [SessionFormat] - Business outcome the training supports and how it is measured today, if it is: [BusinessOutcome] - Policy or compliance content that needs HR, legal, or safety sign-off: [SignOffContent] - Resources I have (SOPs, checklists, demo equipment, a co-facilitator): [Resources] Generate: 1. Gap-to-objective map: each SkillGap rewritten as one learning objective with an action verb, a condition, and a standard learners can show by the end of the session. 2. Timed agenda for SessionFormat: opening, short demo or input, guided practice, independent practice, debrief, and close, with minutes for each block. 3. Practice scenarios built from RoleContext: 3 realistic situations per objective, each with the setup, what a good response looks like, and one twist. 4. Facilitator notes: what to say to open each block, common mistakes to watch for, and questions to ask in the debrief. 5. Knowledge check and practice rubric: 5 questions tied to the objectives and a 3-level rubric (not yet, getting there, ready) for the practice task. 6. 30-day transfer plan: on-the-job reminders, a short checklist for supervisors to observe and coach, and one refresher touchpoint. 7. Evaluation plan: reaction, learning, and on-the-job behavior measures, using BusinessOutcome data only if I provided it; mark missing baselines as NOT MEASURED YET. 8. Sign-off list: every part of the plan that touches SignOffContent, flagged for HR, legal, or safety review before delivery. Rules: - Use team-level gaps only. Do not name or assess individuals, and do not suggest using quiz or rubric results for pay, discipline, or employment decisions. - Do not invent policy, legal requirements, or safety rules. Quote my Resources or mark the point for sign-off. - Fit every block into the SessionFormat time I gave.
Instructions
Paste team-level gaps from your needs analysis, not notes on individuals. Get HR and safety sign-off on flagged items. Measure the baseline before the session if you want to show change.

Examples
Example Input
RoleContext: newly promoted shift leads at a regional grocery distribution center, two shifts (6 am and 2 pm), team of 12 to 18 pickers each, handheld scanners, paper shift handoff log SkillGaps (from last quarter's needs analysis, team level): pre-shift huddles run long and skip the safety point; handoff log entries miss open orders and equipment issues; new pickers are shown the pick path once and then left alone LearnerProfile: 9 shift leads, promoted 1 to 6 months ago, all experienced pickers, English as a second language for 4 of them SessionFormat: 90 minutes, in person, training room next to the floor, one session per shift overlap BusinessOutcome: fewer missed open orders at shift change; currently tracked in the handoff log review, no baseline number yet SignOffContent: forklift and pedestrian safety rules in huddles Resources: huddle card template, handoff log form, site safety SOP section 4, an experienced lead as co-facilitator
Example Output
1. GAP-TO-OBJECTIVE MAP - Huddles run long and skip safety -> Run a 7-minute pre-shift huddle using the huddle card, covering the safety point from SOP section 4, observed in a practice huddle. - Handoff log gaps -> Complete a handoff log entry that lists every open order and equipment issue from a sample shift, with no missing items. - New pickers left alone -> Coach a new picker through the pick path using show, try, check, and a follow-up check after one hour. 2. TIMED AGENDA (90 minutes) 0-10 Opening: why the three habits matter at shift change 10-25 Huddle demo by co-facilitator, then the card walkthrough 25-45 Practice huddles in groups of 3, timed at 7 minutes 45-65 Handoff log practice with a sample shift sheet 65-80 Coaching practice: show, try, check role play 80-90 Debrief, knowledge check, transfer plan 3. PRACTICE SCENARIOS Huddle: (a) 14 pickers, two new starters, a spill reported in aisle 9; (b) a truck is late and the lead wants to skip the safety point; twist: a picker asks about overtime mid-huddle. Handoff log: sample shift with 6 open orders, a scanner that drops connection, and a pallet jack with a flat wheel; twist: one order was partially picked. Coaching: new picker on the frozen section path; twist: the picker says they understood but skips a scan. 4. FACILITATOR NOTES - Huddle: watch for leads reading the card word for word; ask "what is the one thing they must remember?" - Handoff: common miss is equipment issues; ask "what will the next lead trip over first?" - Coaching: watch for telling without letting them try. Debrief: "When did you check?" - Use short sentences and the printed card for leads working in a second language. 5. KNOWLEDGE CHECK AND RUBRIC Questions: 1. What are the four parts of the huddle card? 2. Where does the safety point come from? 3. Which two items must every handoff entry include? 4. What are the three steps of show, try, check? 5. When do you do the follow-up check? Rubric for the practice huddle: Not yet (over 10 minutes or no safety point); Getting there (7 to 10 minutes, safety point present); Ready (7 minutes or less, all card points, one question invited). 6. 30-DAY TRANSFER PLAN - Week 1: huddle card posted at each start point. - Weeks 1 to 4: operations manager observes one huddle per lead per week with a 4-item checklist and gives one coaching note. - Day 30: 20-minute refresher at shift overlap using that month's handoff log entries. 7. EVALUATION PLAN - Reaction: 3-question card at the end of the session. - Learning: knowledge check and practice rubric. - Behavior: huddle observations and handoff log review in weeks 1 to 4. - Outcome: missed open orders at shift change. Baseline: NOT MEASURED YET; count for two weeks before the session. 8. SIGN-OFF LIST - Safety point content in huddles and the spill scenario: site safety lead to confirm against SOP section 4. - Rubric results are for coaching only. HR to confirm they are not used in employment decisions.
