Training objectives are extremely critical for learners and course design to plan for future. If there is lack of planning, there can be trainers learning in a disorganized manner. There can be issues with learners following new and connected concepts without presence of training objectives. In case of instructors, there can be issues in connecting previously taught material with future material without presence of training objectives. There can also be issues with course designers being able to empathize with learners and instructors without presence of training objectives.
