Course Description

Click to download course brochure

The four levels comprise the foremost evaluation model in the world. In this course you will learn directly from the Kirkpatricks the true and correct methodology and how to apply it to maximize the business results of your training initiatives.

During this course you will learn the four levels, receive a participant manual filled with examples and templates that you may borrow and adapt to build your own tools, and gain a complete understanding of what each level measures. You will also explore the reasons why evaluation is critical to training success and hear case studies and success stories from companies that have used the model effectively. You will learn not only how to evaluate, but why and to what degree.

A unique feature of this course is the exploration of how to ensure that what is learned transfers to on-the-job behaviors. You will learn why training alone is not enough, and receive guidance to make sure that what you teach actually gets used on the job.

You will finish an action-packed, interactive course by creating a plan to ensure that your own learning transfers to on-the-job behaviors.

Schedule

This course includes five online sessions: Two of 3 hours each, one of 1 1/2 hours, and the last two of 2 1/2 hours. A 10-minute break will be given each hour.

Live participation in at least three of the five sessions is required to receive your certification.
