Assignment: Developing A Training Evaluation Plan
Overview
Develop an evaluation plan to determine if each learning objective has been met in your training and development program, including evaluation levels used, the specific measurement instruments (such as questionnaires, interviews, observation), and your methodology for the evaluation process.
For this assessment, you will develop an evaluation plan for your training and development program.
Note: The assessments in this course build upon each other, so you are strongly encouraged to complete them in sequence.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
• Competency 2: Demonstrate effective training program design, development, and implementation.
o Analyze the methodology used in the evaluation process.
Competency 3: Demonstrate effective training program measurement and evaluation.
o Develop evaluation levels for learning objectives.
o Explain how evaluation levels will be measured.
o Evaluate the effectiveness of the program design against evaluation results.
o Justify the evaluation plan used for the training and development program.
Competency 5: Identify effective organizational processes and roles for employee development.
o Evaluate effectiveness of training to organizational processes on employee development.
Context
The basic framework for training evaluation is built from Kirkpatrick's four levels of evaluation: reaction, learning, behaviors, and results. This assessment supports the collection methods and analysis of evaluation data for your training and development program.
Questions to consider
As you work to complete this assessment, you may find it helpful to consider the questions below. You are encouraged to discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community, in order to deepen your understanding of the topics.
• Which learning objectives are best evaluated using each of Kirkpatrick's levels?
• When should evaluations be conducted to capture both short-term and long-term training objectives?
• What levels of evaluation afford organizations the best return on investment for their training and development programs?
Instructions
Use the Effective Training textbook, the Internet, or the Capella Library to research Kirkpatrick's evaluation levels.
Requirements
For this assessment, complete the following:
• Develop two or more Kirkpatrick evaluation levels for your training and development program.

• Analyze the methodology you would use in the evaluation process. ( Hint: Would you use a pre- and post-training evaluation, a post-training evaluation, or a control group that does not receive the training but serves as a comparison group for evaluation?)
• Evaluate the effectiveness of your program design against its evaluation results.
• Justify the evaluation plan used for your training and development program.
• Evaluate effectiveness of training to organizational processes on employee development.
