Every training program has a terminal objective. What do we want to achieve out of the program? It can be equated to the final destination of a trip.
Terminal performance objective is then analyzed to write Enabling or Learning Objectives. These supporting objectives allow the Terminal Objective to be broken down into smaller, more manageable objectives. Each enabling learning objective measures an element of the terminal performance objective.
For example, a terminal (performance) objective might teach a salesperson how to sell a product, while enabling (learning) objectives might include:
o Describing the benefits and features
o Overcome objections that a customer has about the product
o Closing the sale
While writing objectives, don't focus on the cognitive domain only. See that you include psychomotor and affective objectives too.
