EVALUATING HYBRID & VIRTUAL LEARNING

Most training programs seek to accomplish specific organization goals
such as improving sales and adopting new technology. Once delivered the program
is then evaluated largely on learner feedback…especially positive feedback.
Data is often manipulated to demonstrate successes that may not be completely accurate.

This program focuses on a more refined training measurement through related
virtual and hybrid intervention. It provides more precise and actionable
information about where training is most successful or falling short of goal.

This 2-hour collaborative workshop features a breakout session for teams
to develop a more specific hybrid training evaluation that measures results
at the individual as well as organizational level. A final action plan refines
the evaluation to gather and analyze real data supporting actual
professional development.

HYBRID TRAINING: MERGING PEOPLE AND CONTENT TO OPTIMIZE LEARNER ENGAGEMENT IN BLENDED LEARNING
