Training Evaluation

Evaluation is used to determine student's level of understanding as training is being conducted and at the completion of training. These evaluations will be in any of the following formats.

• Observation: Evaluate participant performance by observing the classroom, as appropriate.
  
• Quizzes and Tests: Identify whether participants have developed the required knowledge.
  
• Daily Evaluations:Through the use of user-friendly evaluation, the instructor can gather feedback that can be used immediately to reinforce, develop, clarify or correct performance.
  
• End-of-Course Evaluation: Collect data that will be useful to those responsible for course revisions. The evaluations also are indicators of student achievement levels.
  
• Follow-Up Evaluation: The basic purpose of this evaluation is to collect information that will be useful in conducting future courses. It identifies if and how well trainees have applied the training skills to their jobs.
