Workshop: Let's Get Real About Measurement - When, where and how to measure impact Host: Bob Danna, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Bersin & Associates
In this three-hour workshop, learning leaders actively grapple with how best to measure the results of their training and development efforts and present actionable information to the business. Most organizations have little more than reaction data—smile sheets—to show for their efforts. Real measurement provides actionable information to decision makers. The lack of alignment with the mission and operational goals and objec- tives and the paucity of meaningful impact measures are two of the main reasons that training is often undervalued and underfunded. In this lively and interactive discussion, Bob Danna of Bersin Asso-
ciates will review the current state of learning measurement. About half the session will be answering questions from the audience - so bring your most difficult or vexing measurement issues to simulate our discussion. Participants will learn: >> Why there is no single best approach to measurement and why the most important step is to get alignment with operational objectives.
>> Best practices from high-impact learning organizations that are well along in the learning maturation process.
>> The importance of delivering actionable results, tailored to the audi- ence, that differentiate between process metrics (needed to man- age the training function) and results metrics (that matter to line management).
