Frequently asked questions

When should I send a training evaluation form?

Send the reaction and learning sections immediately after the session, then re-send the application section about 30 days later. Behaviour change takes time to show up, so a single same-day form misses it.

What's wrong with only using a satisfaction survey?

Satisfaction (Kirkpatrick level 1) tells you if people enjoyed it, not whether they learned or changed. High smile-sheet scores often accompany zero behaviour change. Measure learning and application too.

How do I use the results?

Aggregate scores across learners to compare sessions and find weak modules, then feed open feedback into the training plan and facilitator notes. Evaluation is only valuable if it changes the next round.
