Assess the effectiveness of the organization’s training program.
A process should exist to determine the effectiveness of training (i.e., how well training is meeting the organization’s needs).
Examples of methods used to assess training effectiveness include the following:
· Testing in the training context
· Post-training surveys of training participants
· Surveys of manager satisfaction with post-training effects
· Assessment mechanisms embedded in courseware
Measures can be taken to assess the benefits of training against both the project’s and organization’s objectives. Particular attention should be paid to the need for various training methods, such as training teams as integral work
units. When used, work or process performance objectives should be unambiguous, observable, verifiable, and shared with course participants. The results of the training effectiveness assessment should be used to revise training materials as
described in the Establish a Training Capability specific practice.
