Kirkpatrick Four Levels® Evaluation Certification Program - Bronze Level Minimize

Course Description

The Kirkpatrick Model comprises the foremost evaluation methodology in the world. In this course, you will learn directly from the Kirkpatricks the true and correct methodology and apply it to your own program to maximize business results. This course is limited to 30 or fewer attendees to ensure that you receive personalized attention and the opportunity to participate.

During this course, 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 the Kirkpatrick Decision-Making Model to help you to allocate training resources effectively.

A unique feature of this course 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.

You will receive a grade and personalized comments on your own evaluation plan that you submit at the end of the course to become bronze level certified.

What People Are Saying
 
Stephen Covey's Comments Minimize
"Kirkpatrick's four levels is the best I've ever seen in evaluating training effectiveness. It is sequentially integrated and comprehensive. It goes far beyond 'smile sheets' into actual learning, behavior changes and actual results, including long-term evaluation. An outstanding model!"

Kirkpatrick Partners is a provider of training evaluation and business partnership training, products, consulting and impact studies. Our work is based on the Kirkpatrick Evaluation Model created by Donald L. Kirkpatrick in 1954 as part of his PhD dissertation on the evaluation of the effectiveness of training for supervisors. It is expanded by the Kirkpatrick Business Partnership Model and Kirkpatrick Foundational Principles.

Instead of training ROI, we focus on training return on expectations (ROE). This is a more holistic measurement of all of the benefits realized from a program or initiative, both qualitative and quantitative. We offer courses and workshops on training evaluation and business partnership that equip training professionals to create, demonstrate and measure the business results and value their training yields or supports.

Donald (Don), James (Jim), and Wendy Kirkpatrick are pleased to be united as Kirkpatrick Partners. Whether you want to earn your Kirkpatrick certification or simply create more value in your organization, we are here to help. Our programs are valuable whether you are a corporate employee, member of government or an independent consultant.

The Kirkpatricks are the authors of nine books, including Evaluating Training Programs, Implementing the Four Levels, Transferring Learning to Results, Kirkpatrick Then and Now, Training on Trial, and The Brunei Window Washer: Bringing Business Partnership to Life.
