Evaluation in the context of training Thus, any definition of evaluation in the context of training and development should include a number of elements: what it is, what it involves and what it leads to.
Evaluation is an analytical process. Evaluation involves the collection of subjective and objective data from a number of sources using a variety of techniques about a training program and the reduction of such data.Evaluation leads to the synthesis of the data into a report containing a summary of results and recommendations, with validated rationales, about the program being evaluated. This last element - the synthesis of a report - is one which has not been addressed in the literature reviewed. Yet, if the overriding aim is to influence decisions, then the omission of a report is a grave omission indeed. A well written report presents arguments clearly and concisely so that decision makers have the evidence before them for consideration of the trainers recommendations.
There is less reliance on verbal discussion and what is often construed as the trainers' attempt to Justify their continued existence within the organization. Further, a written report provides a armament record of the evaluation outcomes and the reasons for modifications to a program. If the reporting is not formalisms then the reasons for modification of a program can tend to become more and more subjectively interpreted over time. The result being that the program can eventually revert to its original form rather than being progressively improved and in line with organizational goals.Effectiveness of Training and Development 1. 0 Introduction 1.
