High Impact Training Evaluation
INTRODUCTION
Organisations make huge resource allocations to training because better skilled employees increase competitiveness. However competing pressures on organisational resources require the HRD function to justify the allocation of resources to it. This requires measuring the effectiveness of training. This two day workshop on validating and evaluating training equips participants with knowledge and skills to assess the effectiveness of training on the following parameters:
• Whether training has met its objectives
• Whether it has been beneficial to the organisation
The workshop enables participants to:
• Choose and use evaluation instruments
• Determine evaluation strategies
• Prepare and present an evaluation report to management
