About this Course

The Kirkpatrick Model comprises the foremost evaluation methodology in the world. 

In this program, you will learn directly from the Kirkpatricks the true and correct methodology and apply it to an actual program to maximize business results. 

This course is limited to 30 or fewer participants to ensure you receive personalized attention and the opportunity to participate.

During this program, 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 tactics to help you to allocate training resources effectively.

A focus of this program 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 ensure that what you teach actually gets used on the job.
