3 principle reasons for training evaluation:

  • It will help you improve training for future participants.
  • It will help you confirm that you’re getting your training right.
  • It will help you prove that the training is adding value.

 

Reason 1 – Training evaluation enables you to identify ways in which you can improve your training.

 

Gathering feedback and data on what participants thought of the training, how they performed in the assessments that were part of the training and how they were subsequently able to transfer that training into the workplace will enable you to identify ways in which improvements can be made.

 

Pro Tip: Keep all training assessment data in one place

It’s easier to track trends and successes when all your training assessments, activities, and evaluations store their data in the same place. With Poll Everywhere you can assess as you go, engage everyone with live word clouds, and conduct training evaluations with a single, easy-to-use service. You can even survey managers to see how well employees apply what they learned, months after the fact. Then you can combine all the data into one comprehensive report. Here’s how it works in live training:

 

We will all have a drive to continuously improve the way we do our business. This applies to training as much as any other area and trainers can contribute towards the bottom line by developing the training we deliver. Conducting effective training evaluation enables us to gather data upon which we can base our decisions for change – ensuring that the way we develop training enhances its value.

 

Reason 2 – Training evaluation enables you to determine that your training is aligned with business objectives.

 

Improving the training that we deliver is one thing, but are we 100% sure that we’re delivering the right training? Evaluating the training that our personnel receive enables us to check that we are effectively equipping them with the right skills and knowledge to carry out their respective roles.

 

Continuing to train people on processes/systems that are now not used by the business (and I have seen this in big organisations) is simply a waste of time. Letting people leave training with gaps in their skills and knowledge can at best limit productivity; at worst it can be dangerous.

 

In order to ensure that your training remains aligned with your business objectives you’ll need to measure its output in some way. There are a range of training evaluation techniques that enable you to achieve this.

 

Reason 3 – Training evaluation enables you to demonstrate the value that training is adding.

 

In 2008 the UK collectively spent £38.6 billion on training. I’m not sure exactly what has happened to that spend over these last few years but the fact is companies spend a huge amount of money on training.

 

You might intuitively know that you are getting your training right but can you prove it? In increasingly tougher financial times company leaders will want to ensure that all areas of the business are offering value for money. They’ll probably base budget allocation decisions on the information they are presented with.

 

Do you have management data that you can use to convince others within the company that the training department offers value?

Providing a strong body of evidence in the form of training evaluation results can help prevent short-term thinking when budget cuts are required – significantly reducing training budgets has the potential for negative impacts on the company further down stream. Of course, the impact of budget cuts may affect more than just the company; reductions in budgets often mean a reduction in personnel.

According to me it can be done in the following ways :

1. Observation

2. Questionaire

3. Interview and case studies

4. Analysis and discussion

can get the feedback through evaluation forms just after the the training and company can give oppotunities to the participants to do presentations regardng the training after some time to see whether they have gained the expected results.

The global best practice for Training Evaluation is by following the Kirkpatrick model which lays the framework to thoroughly evaluate the following 4 elements of a training program:

1. Reaction

2. Learning

3. Behaviour

4. Results

A successful training program is always a work in progress, and the training cycle isn’t complete without an evaluation of training’s effectiveness, which leads to decision-making and planning for future training. Therefore, a useful and informative evaluation method needs to be a part of your overall training operation.

To begin with, what should we as HR be looking for in evaluations?

Was training delivered as planned, on time and to the appointed audience?

Which training methods worked with which topics and which audience groups?

Which methods did not with which topics or audiences?

What specific problems occurred?

How effective was the trainer at engaging the audience and conveying information?

How did the training affect employee performance?

Did the training satisfy regulatory and legal requirements?

Were all stated goals reached? If not, why not?

As Hr, we  can use four levels of training evaluation.

The four levels of evaluation are: 

(1) the reaction 

(2) Learning and increase in knowledge from the training experience

(3) the  behavioral change and improvement after applying the skills on the job; and 

(4) the results or effects its performance has on the business.-assess the cost-value effectiveness or (where feasible) the ROI of the training.

Engaging Managers/supervisors 

 

Managers/supervisors should get involved in: clarifying performance expectations after training; identifying opportunities to apply newskills and knowledge; setting realistic goals based on training; working with individuals on problems encountered while applying new skills; and providing feedback when individuals successfully apply new abilities.

The degree of support provided by Manager  to individuals who use techniques learned in training.

The proper learning and evaluation model can easily calculate the return on expectations (ROE) of stakeholders.ROE is the “ultimate indicator of value.”

Therefore evaluation should be built into the such process that it cover the most appropriate areas and it should be realistic.

Although you can perform a wide range of tests, methods to confirm a training was successful, the most important is to do follow up (months after the training) to ensure the participants are actually applying those new skills, capabilities, knowledge into their day to day job.

It is important to consider this question before the training has been delivered so that everyone is clear what the purpose of the training is and what results it is expected to achieve. Best practice is to evaluate training at 4 different levels, as per the Kirkpatrick Model.

Level 1 - measure the satisfaction of those attending the training to ensure it met their expectations and was delivered effectively

Level 2 - measure what has been learned by having each attendee complete the same multiple choice test before and after the training. The results can then be compared to measure any increase in knowledge.

Level 3 - measure the application of new skills or changes in behaviour by attendess usinf feedback forms completed by their line manager or colleagues

Level 4 - with the co-operation of the Finance Department, measure the impact of any large scale training programs on the company, e.g. has training on process improvement reduced costs?
