TIENET Training Objectives and Purposes
 To provide TIENET trainers with a framework for the
preparation and delivery of training that will enable end-users
to effectively and efficiently utilise the TIENET functionality to
support and facilitate their role within the NS Program
Planning Process
 Successful training should enable end-users to:
 Describe each stage of the Program Planning Process
 Describe the typical activities that occur at each stage of the
Program Planning Process
 Define those Program Planning activities that will be supported
by and/or documented within TIENET
 Use the functionality in TIENET that relates to the completion of
those Program Planning activities supported by and/or
documented within TIENET
