Introduction
In today’s performance-driven environment, training functions are no longer judged by activity levels but by measurable impact and business value. Organizations expect learning and development initiatives to directly contribute to productivity, capability building, and strategic outcomes. This has elevated the role of the training professional into that of a training analyst and performance consultant.
This program provides a comprehensive and practical approach to training analysis, measurement, and evaluation, equipping participants with the tools to assess training effectiveness, optimize learning investments, and demonstrate tangible results. It integrates modern evaluation frameworks, including models such as Kirkpatrick Model and ROI-based methodologies, enabling participants to transform training into a value-generating function.
Through real-world case studies, applied exercises, and analytical tools, participants will learn how to measure not only knowledge acquisition but also behavioral change, competency development, and organizational impact.
