  1. Evaluation of Training B.V.L.Narayana SPTM/RSC BRC

  2. DEFINITION • Training • Provision aimed at creating intentional learning processes To bring about semi permanent change in individuals –Knowledge, attitudes. Skills and habits (KASH)—behaviors With an intention To enhance performance on the job • Evaluation of training • Systematic collection of descriptive and judgmental information necessary to make effective training decisions • Is affected by • Need analysis, participation, other antecedent conditions, design and delivery and transfer of training

  3. Evaluation of training • Antecedent conditions • Are what trainees bring to training • Design and delivery • Structuring and methods of delivering content • Transfer of training • Transfer of training is defined as the degree to which trainees apply the knowledge, skills , and attitudes gained in training to their job ( Ford and weissbein 1997; Tannebaum and Yulk 1992; Wexley and latham 1991)

  4. TRAINING AND TRANSFER

  5. Training and transfer

  6. Participation • Factors influencing participation • Organizational • Alignment with organizational strategy • Change, innovative work practices • High performance work systems • In large organizations • Economies of scale, work place recognition, union involvement, specialized skills • Showing greater support for training and development • At job level • Highly skilled jobs • At individual level • More motivated to learn, continuous learning • More committed

  7. Antecedent conditions • Are • What trainees bring to training • High cognitive ability • High motivation to learn-desire to learn • High training and performance goal orientation • Work environment factors-facilitating trainee participation and learning • Enablers of use of training at work place • Rewards, recognition, support, resources • Organizational direction and support • How training is prepared • Content has to be relevant, interesting, appropriate and have opportunities for practice, enable mental conceptualization of material

  8. Motivation to learn • Motivation to learn is defined as the specific desire of a learner to learn the content of training programme (Noe 1986; Noe and Scmitt 1986) –supported by • High training goal orientation • Lack anxiety • High internal locus of control • High achievement motivation • Conscientitious • High self efficacy • Committed • Plan their career • Organizational support, peer and supervisor support

  9. Training design • Is based on how people learn and how organizations learn • Learning cycles (Sanchez 2002) • Learning principles (Kolb 1984) • Recall from memory • Apply principles to task • Symbolic mental rehearsal • Reinforcement • Feed back and response • Self monitoring of learning • Cater to differences in aptitudes

  10. Design of training • Learner control • Enabling trainee to participate in design of programme • Has a very small role, good for procedural and skill based learning • Trainer skills • Use of line managers, peers unskilled trainers reduces efficacy of training • Use expert and skilled trainers • Question of outsourcing • Issues of trust, contextual familiarity, commitment • Types of training • Individual, team, error and e-learning

  11. Delivery • Contexts • Separate • As part of high performance work systems • Influenced by • Trainees learning style • Methodology of delivery • Way training is delivered-Kolb’s experiential learning cycle(1984) – concrete experience, reflective observations, abstract generalization, active experimentation • Specific population and content • Maximum transfer of training occurs when conditions for transfer are included in training, practice scenarios, trainee is allowed to set goals, gets rewards and trainee supervisors are trained

  12. Methodologies • Groups of methods used in training • Information presentation • Modeling- demonstration • Information presentation and learner response—case method • Systematic response generation—contextualizing the training • Simulation • On the job training

  13. High performance work systems • A growing body of research suggests that the use of a set of HR practices, including • comprehensive employee recruitment • selection procedures, compensation • and performance management systems, • information sharing, and • extensive employee involvement and training, • can improve the acquisition, development and retention of a talented and motivated workforce. These HR practices are usually referred to as high involvement, high commitment, or high performance work systems.

  14. Training design • Involves five steps • Specify instructional objectives • Decide sequence of activities • Content based on learning principles • Select training method • Ensure good learning environment • To maintain motivation to learn • Design measures of training effectiveness

  15. Transfer of training • Aims of transfer • Apply to improve performance • Immediate—learn and apply • Long term –maintain and apply, transfer to others • Is impacted by factors • What occurs before training • What occurs during training • What occurs after training • Factors classified as • Individual • organizational

  16. Transfer of training • Individual • Learner characteristics • Cognitive ability • Motivation to learn • Anxiety • Openness to experience • Perceived utility • Career planning • Organizational commitment • High motivation to transfer

  17. Transfer of training • Training environment • Learning goals • Content relevance • Practice and feed back • Behavioral modeling • Error based examples • Work environment • Transfer climate • Supervisor support • Peer support • Opportunity to perform

  18. Evaluation of training • Most commonly based on four stages model • Kirkpatrick (1959,1976,1994,2006) • Four stages of evaluation • Reactions • Learning • Behavioral • Results • Research shows that most used is • Reactions (72%), followed by learning( 32%) behavioral ( 19%) and results (7%)

  19. Evaluation of training

  20. Evaluation of training • Research • Very few to establish causal sequence of Kirkpatrick's model • New models are being developed • Holton's model • Proof that training helps • Immediate • Long term

  23. Theory of planned behavior

  24. Theory of planned behavior • The theory of planned behaviour states that the most important determinant of a persons behaviour • is behaviour intent ( Ajzen 1991; Ajzen and Fishbien 1980; Fishbien and Ajzen 1975) and • that this intent is dependent upon His attitude, the pervailing norms and perceived behaviour controls. • Peoples attitudes towards their behaviour refers to the degree to which they are made favourable or unfavourable evaluations of behaviour in question. • subjective norms are perceived social pressures from significant others to perform or not to perform. • Perceived behavioral controls are the perceived ease or difficulty of performing a beaviour. more favourable the norms and attitudes, more favourable is te perceived beavioural controls and stronger the individual intention to perform the behaviour under consideration
