Evaluating Training Programs
Where would a learning event be without smiley sheets at the end? Well, learning events be in a much better place if they follow the levels outlined by Donald Kirkpatrick decades ago. Kirkpatrick’s Four Levels helps training teams and organizations understand that there are connections between good training and the success of a company.
Kirkpatrick outlines his four levels into satisfaction, knowledge, application, return on investment. By measuring each level, an organization better understands what to reinforce and use each level as leading indicators of success rather than just a piece of paper that gets scribbled on at the end of a class or learning event.
