How do you show the value of learning? There’s no easy, single answer because learning is complex and every organisational context is different. But some constants remain. And most agree it is about more than attendance in class or completion rates. In this session, Will Thalheimer puts the often controversial topic of learning evaluation under the spotlight, and explores what it really means to show the value of learning.
Learning, performance and evaluation
Few in our field have spent as much time as Dr Will Thalheimer exploring what makes learning effective. Now he has turned his focus to evaluation - how do we know that learning has taken place and transferred into performance? His new multi-level approach to evaluation is a method that ranges from knowledge building, through task competence to effective performance. Join him as he examines how to evaluate learning programmes. This session will explore some new, deep thinking about the links - and lack of them - between designing learning content or experiences and the eventual impact on workplace performance.
