HRD Evaluation Model

-



Donald Kirkpatrick has developed a very popular evaluation model that has been used since the late 1950s by the training community. The focus is on measuring four kinds of outcomes that should result from a highly effective training program' Perhaps the best-known evaluation methodology for judging learning processes is Donald Kirkpatrick’s Four Level Evaluation Model which was first published in a series of articles in 1959 in the Journal of American Society of Training Directors (now known as T + D Magazine). The series was later compiled and published as an article, “ Techniques for Evaluating Training Programs”, in a book Kirkpatrick edited, “ Evaluating Training Programs” (1975). However, it was not until his 1994 book was published, Evaluating Training programs, that the four levels became popular. Nowadays" his four levels remain a cornerstone in the learning industry.

Kirkpatrick's model includes four levels or steps of outcome evaluation :

·   Level 1 Evaluation – Reaction

·   Level 2 Evaluation – Learning

·   Level 3 Evaluation – Behavior

·   Level 4 Evaluation – Results
