Don Kirkpatrick and Evaluating Training

Evaluation

Don Kirkpatrick introduces his four-level model of evaluating training in 1959
  1. Reaction - measures how those who participate in the program react to it.
  2. Learning - the extent to which participants change attitudes, improve knowledge, and increase skill as a result of attending the program.
  3. Behavior - the extent to which a change in behavior has occurred because the participants attended the training program.
  4. Results - the final results that occurred because the participants attended the program.
