    Justifying an evaluation

    In Britain, having a ‘stiff upper lip’ goes hand in hand with breathing. From the beginning, where the native islanders were sieged by Roman legionaries, and through the ravaging World Wars, the hard nosed, war torn British people have kept their upper lip stiff as a board thanks largely in part to a small, unassuming plant. Camellia sinensis, or the tea plant, has been responsible for all sorts of large scale controversy through the centuries. Many wars and economic industries can be directly credited to the worldwide want for tea. Tea was not always easy to obtain. At its popularization, tea was hard to come by and quite expensive to make. Nowadays, the average cost of one serving of tea is only three cents, making tea one of the most economically sound beverages available. It contains no sodium, sugar, carbs, or fat thus also making it extremely healthy. It is still a British tradition to have ‘tea time’ around four o’clock in the afternoon to help get through the day. In America, tea is often iced and sugared. The mascot drink of the South is sweet tea. Tea can be purchased in cans or bottles from vending machines anywhere for instant drinking pleasure. Tea comes in many varieties and flavors around the world and remains an extremely important economic industry in many countries - but none as much as in Britain. Britain and its irresistible lust for the tea plant has led to many millions of deaths worldwide throughout the centuries.…

    Evaluating Training Evaluation

    My recommendation for evaluating the training program consists of both reaction criteria and performance measurements such as results comparisons and will be conducted online so once the employees submits the evaluation I will see and can tally the results quickly. An evaluation should not consist only on reaction criteria because it is based on pure opinion; while the learner opinion needs to be taken into consideration it does not need to be the sole measurement on the evaluation training (Bernardin & Russell, 2013). Evaluating training allows the training to ensure the employee was present for training and to learn if the quality of the training will assist the employee with their job performance (Mythen & Gidman, 2011). Getting the learner…

    Why Is Evaluating Training an Important Part of Strategic Training?

    Effective training requires the use of a systematic training process. Evaluation of training is one part of this, it allows you Measure training outcomes and Compare outcome to training objectives and criteria. Evaluation of training compares the post-training results to the pre-training objectives of managers, trainers, and trainees. Too often, training is conducted with little thought of measuring and evaluating it later to see how well it worked.1 Because training is both time consuming and costly, it should be evaluated. Let me take my personal experiences as an example.…

    Kirkpatrick Four Evaluation Levels

    In 1959 Donald Kirkpatrick defined an evaluation model for training programs that has become the best known methodology and the most widely used and popular model used today. The model, known as “The Four Levels of Learning Evaluation” was redefined in 1994 in his book titled "Evaluating Training Programs: The Four Levels." The idea behind the model is for an organization to have meaningful evaluation of learning in the organization. The four levels included in this specific model are reaction, learning, behavior and results.…
