Study Notes
Training Evaluation Models Overview
- Effective evaluation occurs continuously, not just at the end of training.
- Utilize various frameworks for comprehensive training evaluation.
Kirkpatrick Four-Level Framework
- Level 1: Reaction - Measures participant satisfaction with the program.
- Level 2: Learning - Assesses the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA) acquired.
- Level 3: Behavior - Evaluates the application of learned skills in the workplace.
- Level 4: Results - Focuses on the outcomes of applying skills and knowledge.
New World Kirkpatrick Framework
- An updated approach to Kirkpatrick’s model emphasizing modern training needs.
Philips ROI Process Model
- Data Analysis is pivotal, involving:
- Planning evaluation objectives.
- Data collection for program assessment.
- Reporting results to stakeholders.
- Levels measured:
- Level 1: Reaction
- Level 2: Learning
- Level 3: Application
- Level 4: Business Impact
- Level 5: ROI (Return on Investment)
- Importance of isolating program effects to ensure accurate ROI calculations.
Chain of Impact
- Participants react positively to training, leading to knowledge acquisition.
- Acquired skills are applied, resulting in measurable changes in business performance.
- Isolate the effects of training for precise ROI generation.
Data Types
- Distinguish between hard data (quantifiable metrics like output, time, costs) and soft data (qualitative aspects like work habits and attitudes).
- Convert both types of data into monetary values for comprehensive evaluation.
Cost Items Analysis
- Initial assessment, program design, implementation, maintenance, and evaluation are crucial cost components.
- Each component can be prorated or expensed based on resource allocation.
ROI Calculation
- Cost-Benefit Ratio (CBR) = Program benefits / Program cost.
- ROI (%) = (Net program benefit x 100) / Program cost.
- Recognize that evaluating ROI is complex; benefit values are subjective and challenging to quantify.
Brinkerhoff’s Success Case Method
- Focus on identifying factors contributing to successful or unsuccessful training outcomes.
- Conduct participant surveys to gather relevant data for analysis.
Comparison of Training Evaluation Models
- Kirkpatrick Model emphasizes satisfaction and outcomes.
- Phillips Model incorporates Return on Expectations (ROE) alongside ROI.
- Brinkerhoff’s method highlights analysis of both successful and unsuccessful cases.
- Kaufman, CIRO, Hamblin, and CIPP models offer varying insights on context, input, process, and output evaluation.
Key Takeaways
- Initiate ROI studies selectively with specific training instances.
- Continuous documentation and communication of evaluation impacts are crucial for organizational learning.
