Evaluation of Training and Development Programme

Bharthvajan R

One of the most nebulous and unsatisfactory aspects of training programmes is the evaluation of their effectiveness. Evaluation is any attempt to obtain information (feedback) on the effects of a training programme, and to assess the value of the training in the light of that information. Training Evaluation is the application of systematic methods to periodically and objectively assess the effectiveness of training and development programmes in achieving expected results, their impacts, both intended and unintended, continued relevant and alternative or more cost-effective ways of achieving expected results.
