I have included Kirkpatrick’s Four Levels of Evaluation in every proposal I have ever written, and I wanted to hear from Kirkpatrick himself regarding his take on the current state of evaluation and whether his four levels are still viable. Well, based on where Kirkpatrick and his son James are today, I was completely wrong.

Some companies will use “Level 2: Learning” to measure whether the learners have mastered the training course content. And as time has gone by, I have started to wonder about the validity of Kirkpatrick in today’s world. The focus is on the training event itself and the follow-up to that event. But it wasn’t.

While acknowledging that Kirkpatrick's four levels of evaluation had proved valuable over more than thirty years in helping to measure instructor-led, content-based 'training' interventions, Sloman felt that a new approach was necessary to support a more self-directed, work-based 'learning' process. I think it does.
