We've all heard of - even - hopefully! tried to apply - Kirkpatrick's Four Levels of Evaluation.
Afterall, the training industry has had the Kirkpatrick Four Levels of Evaulation for fifty (50) years now!
The question is, how many learning & performance professionals know how to do them right?
The research shows - not many. :-/
So I'm launching a Measurement & Evaluation Extravaganza on this blog. It's meant to help all learning & performance professionals to gain mastery over this area, and to assist ASTD Certified Professional in Learning & Performance (CPLP) candidates to prep for the CPLP Knowledge Exam.
Let's start with Kirkpatrick's Level 1 Evaluation... When should you use Level 1? What does a valid Level 1 Evaluation look like? When is it inappropriate to use Level 1?
Ken Phillips, Ph.D., CPLP - founder and President of Phillips Associates - is a learning & performance measurement & evaluation expert.
Ken has a knack for helping us regular humans understand when, where & how to measure, evaluate, summarize & report.
Ken has written a series of articles on the subject - I've included regarding Level 1 Evaluations below.
If reading isn't enough - and you want more - you can catch Ken at the upcoming CCASTD Evanston Lunch Bunch on February 15th (what better Valentine?!).
Meeting Ken in Evanston is a great way - given a smaller audience - to get some of his time & attention.
Ken is also one of our facilitators for our online, facilitated CPLP Mastery Knowledge Exam prep course.
Those attending the ASTD International Conference & Exposition (ASTD ICE) here in Chicago, well, you'll have an opportunity to meet Ken too - he's presenting on the subject of measurement & evaluation at the conference.
BTW - if you would like a copy of Ken's article, please contact Ken directly. You'll find Ken's contact information contained within the article below.
