I like to imagine performance support as an Exobrain … (and, of course, that I am one of the smart people in learning … guess I will have to ask Simon about that.) Ive been creating training and e-Learning programs for over 20 years, serving as an instructional designer, writer, developer, and project manager.

The Learning Circuits Big Question for May is: How do we need to change in what we do in order to address learning/performance needs that are on-demand? Maintaining the status quo is no longer sufficient if we, as learning and development professionals, want to stay relevant to the businesses we serve.

So, paperwork is filled out, tech support gets involved, and a few days later I can finally create a flow chart.

But, of course, you actually do need to develop an evaluation for this level. It was an opportunity I couldn’t miss.

Scrimping often plays out in the form of internal IT pros developing and delivering end-user training. And furthermore, a recent Gallup study found that firms with engaged workforces have 2.6 times the earnings per share growth rate compared to their industry counterparts. The evidence is undeniable, and yet companies continue to scrimp.

My thinking about training evaluation was turned on its head by a presentation at the February 2011 MNISPI meeting by Beth McGoldrick of Ameriprise’s RiverSource University. McGoldrick decided that the model to use in developing the evaluation design would be Scriven’s Key Evaluation Checklist (KEC).
