Learning Objectives
• Identify five levels of “matterful” learning evaluation
• Recognize how, when and where to gather data for each level
• Apply evaluation data to improve future programming and support organizational outcomes
The document discusses three prescriptive evaluation models: Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Training Evaluation Model, the Schuman Experimental Evaluation Model, and Stufflebeam's CIPP Model. Kirkpatrick's model assesses training programs at four levels - reaction, learning, behavior, and results. The Schuman model involves designing an intervention, implementing it, collecting and analyzing data, interpreting findings, and reporting results. Stufflebeam's CIPP model evaluates the context, inputs, process, and products of a program.
This document discusses evaluation of learning initiatives, which is the third stage of the Turning Learning into Action (TLA) methodology. It emphasizes that evaluation should focus on measuring behavior changes and business impacts rather than just knowledge gained. The ROI Institute's approach ties evaluation back to the initial objectives. Effective evaluation also starts with deciding on objectives before designing the initiative. The document then provides an example of an impact dashboard that can be used to evaluate changes in objectives, application of goals, and business benefits from the learning. It collects data on these metrics from participant progress reviews and action plans.
The document discusses return on investment (ROI) in training and development. It covers determining ROI by identifying stakeholders' needs, setting goals and objectives, assessing learning outcomes, and calculating expenses. ROI is important to quantify training effectiveness, manage budgets, and gain management support. The document also outlines models for calculating ROI, factors to consider in reporting findings to stakeholders, and the importance of using data to improve future training.

Evaluating Training Programs: Kirkpatrick's 4 Levels.
The four levels are:
Reaction.
Learning.
Behavior.
Results.
Level 1: Reaction
Kirkpatrick refers to Level 1 as a measure of customer satisfaction. Most of the forms that people fill out at the end of a class or workshop are instruments for measuring Level 1. Here are 8 guidelines that Kirkpatrick recommends to get maximum benefit from reaction sheets:
1. Determine what you want to find out
2. Design a form that will quantify reactions
3. Encourage written comments and suggestions
4. Get a 100 percent immediate response
5. Get honest responses
6. Develop acceptable standards
7. Measure reactions against standards and take the appropriate action
8. Communicate reactions as appropriate.
Level 2: Learning
Kirkpatrick defines learning as the extent to which participants change attitudes, increase knowledge, and/or increase skill as a result of attending a program. So to measure learning we need to determine the following:
What knowledge was learned
What skills were developed or improved
What attitudes were changed
Here are guidelines for evaluating learning:
1. Use a control group if it is practical
2. Evaluate knowledge, skills, and/or attitudes both before and after the program. Use a paper and pencil test to measure knowledge and attitudes and use a performance test to measure skills.
3. Get a 100 percent response
4. Use the results of the evaluation to take appropriate action.
Level 3: Behavior
Level three can be defined as the extent to which a change in behavior has occurred because someone attended a training program. In order for change in behavior to occur, four conditions are necessary:
The person must have a desire to change
The person must know what to do and how to do it
The person must work in the right climate
The person must be rewarded for changing
Level 4: Results
This involves measuring the final results that occurred because a person attended a training session. This can include increased production, improved work quality, reduced turnover, etc.
Here are some guidelines for evaluating results:
1. Use a control group if it is practical
2. Allow time for results to be achieved
3. Measure both before and after the program if it is practical
4. Repeat the measurement at appropriate times
5. Consider cost versus benefit
6. Be satisfied with evidence if proof is not possible
The Link Between Performance Management and Employee Engagement.
Why does employee engagement matter?
Companies with high engagement experience…
16% higher profitability
37% lower absenteeism
2.5 times higher revenues
65% reduction in turnover
18% increase in productivity
Three key drivers of engagement
Connection: An employee’s connection to their boss, company and job
Recognition: Compensation, appreciation and acknowledgment of achievements
Performance: Development, feedback and profess.
Evaluation methods are used to assess the success of programs and projects. There are different types of evaluation including formative evaluation during design/development and summative evaluation after completion to determine impact. Common evaluation methods are satisfaction surveys to measure participant reaction, knowledge tests to determine learning, observing application of skills, tracking changes in business metrics, and calculating return on investment. The document outlines these various evaluation techniques.
This document discusses training evaluation and measurement. It defines key terms like training effectiveness, outcomes, and evaluation. It describes the reasons companies evaluate training, including demonstrating returns on investment. Formative evaluation involves collecting feedback during program development, while summative evaluation determines post-training changes. Common outcomes measured are reactions, learning, skills, attitudes, and results. Various evaluation designs aim to control for threats to validity like pre-post tests with comparison groups. Calculating return on investment involves determining costs, benefits, and the ratio of returns to costs. Practical challenges include isolating training impacts from other influences.
The document outlines the training cycle which includes 4 steps: needs analysis to identify training needs, design and development of the training program, delivery of the training, and evaluation of the training at 4 levels - reaction, learning, behavior, and results. It provides details on each step, including how to conduct a needs analysis at the organizational, job, and individual level, concepts for designing effective training like practice and feedback, and methods for evaluating the success of training.
This document discusses various topics related to training and development. It begins by outlining Peter Drucker's prediction that training would become one of the fastest growing industries due to the replacement of industrial workers with knowledge workers. It then discusses the need for training due to factors like changes in technology, policies, and demographics.
Several types of training programs are mentioned, including diversity awareness training, sexual harassment training, and cross-cultural training. Different training methods like on-the-job training and off-the-job training are also outlined. Key aspects of developing an effective training program are highlighted, such as knowing your employees, dividing them into groups, and preparing and presenting information. Common training evaluation methods are also summarized,

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

$80 billion.
That’s how much U.S businesses spend each year on training
their employees. But a big budget doesn’t always ensure that
Learning and Development is effective. Survey results have
shown that:
● 75% of surveyed American managers aren’t satisfied with
their companies’ L&D functions (HBR, 2016)
● 70% of surveyed employees feel that they don’t have the
skills to be effective in their jobs (Gartner, 2020)
These numbers demonstrate the importance and necessity of
measuring the effectiveness of your training programs. L&D
professionals who can track the business results of their
programs report having a higher satisfaction with their
services, more executive support, and continued and
increased resources for L&D investments.
Introduction
Getting started with learning analytics
The case for learning analytics is clear. Not sure where to get
started in tracking your own performance?
In this guide, we have gathered metrics and KPIs that can help
you quantify the value you are adding with your L&D initiatives
and correlate them with the four levels of the Kirkpatrick
evaluation model.
We also provide clear instructions on how to calculate these
metrics, as well as how to gather the data you need.

The Kirkpatrick evaluation model is a four-level model designed to help you measure the effectiveness of
your course, from participants' direct response to the initiative, to the actual business impact the training
creates. This guide provides example KPIs and metrics for the various levels to help you take a data-driven
approach to understanding the effectiveness of your L&D initiatives.
4. Goals for this level
Your main focus here is evaluating the
reaction of the participants after the
training. Your goals are to get a good grasp
of how satisfied the learners are with your
training and to identify any potential points
of improvement.
4
Level 1: Reaction
5. Quantitative data
You can use surveys or questionnaires with scales from 1 to 10,
or ones that are specifically designed to measure opinions such
as the Likert scale.
Qualitative data
There are two methods: including open-ended questions in
surveys, and conducting interviews with learners. For both
methods, use questions such as:
● What would you change or improve in this training?
● What resources or support do you need to apply what you
have learned?
● What topic or section did you find most valuable?

Level 1: Reaction
How to collect the data
Metrics for different levels require different types of data
gathering. In each chapter, we explain how to get both the
qualitative and quantitative data you need to generate insights.

6. 6
Metric: Training experience satisfaction
You can use your Net Promoter Score for this KPI. Ask your
learners a question such as “On a scale from 1 to 10, how likely
are you to recommend this training?” Based on the responses,
you can discern 3 categories:
● Promoters (9 - 10)
● Passives (7-8)
● Detractors (6 or below)
Once you have categorized your respondents, you can use this
formula to calculate your employee NPS, or eNPS:
Formula
eNPS =
% of Promoters - % of Detractors
Any score that is above 0 is okay. However, a score between 10
and 30 is good, and anything above 50 is excellent. You should be
concerned if your employee NPS is -10 or lower.
Metric: Course completion rate
This grants insight into how many students completed 100% of
the course.
Turn the page for an example calculation >
Level 1: Reaction
Formula
Completion rate =
Students who have completed the
course / Students enrolled * 100
7. 7
Example
If 1000 employees enrolled and 50 completed 100% of the
course, then the course completion rate would be:
50/1000*100 = 5%
Metric: Learner drop off rate
This is similar to the course completion rate: it uses a percentage
to show how many learners made it to the end of a course.
Why both metrics? With the learner drop off rate, you would
ideally also measure where students stop learning, so that you
can identify lessons that need improving, or even technical issues
that you need to address.
Level 1: Reaction
Formula
Learner drop off rate =
Students who have not completed
the part of a course / Students who
started the part of a course * 100
8. 8
Goals for this level
At this level, you’ll need to understand the
extent to which your employees have
retained knowledge and skills after their
training. Your goals are to ensure your
training has met its objectives, and to
identify the skills that your training can
further develop.
Level 2: Learning
9. 9
Level 2: Learning
How to collect the data
Quantitative data
You can use tests learners take before and after the training to
compare their knowledge and skills.
Qualitative data
Make use of pre- and post-interviews with employees. You could
ask about their confidence levels, or what they learned to help
them perform at a higher level.
Formula
Assessment pass rte =
Employees passing assessment / Employees
taking the assessment *100
Metric: Knowledge and skill retention
There is no formula for this. Instead, use qualitative data such as
self-assessments and quantitative data such as test results to
monitor for differences in knowledge and skill levels before and
after the training.

Metric: Assessment pass rate
The percentage of employees who successfully complete their
assessment. If this is unexpectedly low, you need to investigate:
were the questions too detailed? Was the assessment too
difficult, or scheduled too long after the lessons were completed?
Example
If 200 employees took a test at the end of a course, and only 45
passed, the pass rate would be:
45/200*100 = 22.5%
Formula
Assessment pass rate =
Employees passing assessment / Employees
taking the assessment *100
11. 11
Goals for this level
This is where you measure the changes in
the behavior and the performance of the
employees resulting from the training. This
is crucial for understanding the influence of
the L&D activity on employees’ job
performance and attitude, as well as
determining if the L&D activity has achieved
its desired outcome.
Level 3: Behavior
12. Qualitative data
Include open-ended questions into your interviews or surveys
with learners, such as:
● How have you put what you learned in training to use in your
job?
● How confident would you be teaching someone else your
acquired knowledge and skills?
● Do you feel like your behavior is different now than it was
before the training?
12
Level 3: Behavior
How to collect the data
Quantitative data
An option to consider is third-party observation, where you’ll
collect data from reports from managers after their coaching
sessions with the employees, for example. You can also gather
data using text mining or sentiment analysis from learners’ email
conversations, personal development plans, or call recording for
sales and customer service.
13. Metric: Employee engagement rate
Another sign of a successful L&D program is an increase in
employee engagement. One way to track this is by measuring the
employee engagement rate before and after the training.
13
Metric: Employee performance
post-training
To measure improvements in employee performance after
training, compare employee KPIs before and after the training to
monitor for improvements. For example, a sales development
representative might have revenue as their main KPIs, and you
could monitor if revenue has increased after the training.
Note: We recommend reserving this metric for your most
impactful L&D initiatives.

Formula
Employee engagement rate =

Level 3: Behavior
14. 14
Goals for this level
For the final level, you will be measuring
L&D's impact on the organization’s business
outcomes. By gathering concrete and
quantifiable results of your training, you can
make the case for future L&D initiatives.
Level 4: Impact
15. Qualitative data
You can conduct interviews or focus groups. For example, you
can bring in customers for a focus group and ask them about
their experience and how this has changed over time (with a
focus on the period before and after your training has taken
place). You can also interview managers to determine whether
they feel their employees are noticeably more productive or
producing higher quality work since the training.
15
Level 4: Impact
How to collect the data
Quantitative data
Depending on the goals of your training and the change you were
aiming to inspire in your employees, you can measure its impact
by using surveys or hard data. For example, you can use surveys
to measure the perceptions of customers and stakeholders, or
compare data on employee turnover and retention rate, or
analyze sales and profits before and after the training.
16. Example
Say you spent $45,000 on training to increase the speed of your
customer service reps resolving issues. As a result of this, they
were able to increase customer satisfaction and sales, which led
to an increase of $100,000 in net profit from sales. That would
make your training ROI:
($100,000 – $45,000)/45 000*100 = 122%
16
Level 4: Impact
Metric: Training return on investment
This powerful metric lets you demonstrate the financial impact of
your L&D initiatives that apply to skills and activities.
Note: You don’t need to measure ROI of every training initiative
at your organization. Typically, you would only track this key
metric for the top 5% of most impactful training programs.
Formula
Training return on investment =
(Return of Benefit – Investment
Cost) / Investment Cost * 100
17. Example
If you have 56 positive responses from surveys of 100 customers,
your score would be:
(56/100)*100 = 56
17
Level 4: Impact
Metric: Operational efficiency
For trainings and courses that impact operations, you can
measure the resulting changes in operational efficiency using
metrics such as time to repair, time to recover, time to failure,
and cost-per-click. Compare measurements from before and
after training to note any efficiency improvement.
Metric: Customer satisfaction index
Monitoring this metric for changes after courses and trainings
will help you understand how your L&D initiatives are helping
your employees better serve your customers. This is only
relevant for training on customer-facing skills.
Note: Your customer satisfaction score can range from 0 to 100.
The higher your score is, the higher the level of satisfaction from
your customers.
Formula
Customer satisfaction score =
(Number of positive responses /
number of total responses) * 100

19. 3: Customizing your evaluation framework
It might not be necessary for you to measure all four Kirkpatrick
model levels; plus, this can be a lengthy and expensive process.
Spend time conducting your training needs analysis, and choose
the training effectiveness evaluation level that best suits those.
Do what you need to make a confident, informed decision on the
effectiveness of your training.
In the next page, we’ll show you how you can determine which
level suits you best, based on the type and aims of your training.
4: Acting on your findings
Perhaps the most important practice for measuring training
effectiveness is to make sure you put your findings into practice.
That means making changes and improvements where necessary
and being quick to take action.
19
Best practices
To get the best results, you need to use data, and use it in the
right way. Here are four best practices to help you make the most
of your data-driven approach to L&D.
1: Selecting KPIs
Identify your KPIs before the development phase of your
training. Knowing what you want to measure first will enable you
to select the most suitable measuring effectiveness method. You
may want to consult with key stakeholders first to know which
metrics are most important to them.
2: Collecting data
Plan your data collection schedule in the design phase of your
training. Know when you want to measure effectiveness and how
you will do this, and build it into your training timeline to ensure
you stay organized and manage stakeholder expectations.
Bonus content
20. Data collection schedule
Now that you’ve had the how of measuring training effectiveness
out of the way, it is time to consider the when. A best practice is
to formulate a data collection schedule in the design phase of
your training. There are two reasons for this:
● It allows you to have an overview of when to measure the
different levels
● It helps you to manage stakeholder expectations
Head to the next page for an example data collection schedule
that you can use as a starting point.

Customized measurement framework
While it might be tempting to implement all levels of the
Kirkpatrick model, this might not be the most practical and
cost-effective move. Instead, you can customize your framework
by only measuring what is necessary to help you determine the
ROI of your training.
One way to do so is by adding levels based on the type and aims
of your training, as suggested by Leslie Allan.
Customized measurement levels
● Level 1. Reaction: For all training programs
● Level 2. Learning: For hard-skills programs
● Level 3. Behavior: For strategic programs
● Level 4. Impact: For programs costing over $50,000
