Extract:

Kirkpatrick’s Four-Level Evaluation Model is a widely recognized and utilized framework for evaluating training and development programs. Developed by Donald Kirkpatrick in the 1950s, this model provides a systematic approach to assessing the effectiveness of training initiatives. It consists of four levels: Reaction, Learning, Behavior, and Results. Each level focuses on a specific aspect of training evaluation, enabling organizations to gain valuable insights into the impact of their training investments.

To assess the long-term behavioral impact of our training programs, we conduct evaluations a few months after the training using a tool we have developed ourselves. ResultsLab uses Behavioral Interview (BI) questions that prompt participants to reflect on real-life scenarios where they applied the skills learned during the program. Responses are structured in the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, Result) format, which provides a clear and actionable framework to measure behavior change over time.
