Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Lots of lip service gets paid to training, but most training functions usually reside at the cutting edge of the downsizing axe. This book provides training managers with methods for reporting how a training program contributes to a company's bottom line. It sheds light on how the intangible attributes of trainees (one of which is the knowledge learned in a training program) get transferred into work skills, and how both knowledge and skills can be quantified into numbers which management can understand.
The only drawbacks are: 1) that there is not enough of a discussion about statistical methods for data interpretation, and 2) some examples of purposeful, targeted questions would definitely be useful. However, overall, I am happy to have this text become part of my daily playbook.
