Conducting Level 1 evaluations is a ubiquitous part of the workplace learning and performance landscape. If used properly and designed well, they ensure that learning programs are “on track” to achieve key objectives. Yet despite their widespread use and critical role, many questions remain regarding their core purpose and the validity of the results. In this session, you will analyze the true core purpose of Level 1 evaluations – what they should and should not be used for – assess several common mistakes made in creating Level 1 evaluations; and examine eight techniques that can be used to eliminate those mistakes and develop valid Level 1 evaluation forms.
