Episode 36 - Emotion at Work in Learning Evaluation

This episode looks at evaluating learning. My guest is someone whose surname spikes a lot of discussion and debate within learning and development, organizational development and the HR sector. I’ve known Jim Kirkpatrick since we first met in 2012 and we’ve worked together since. I feel very honored to be one of the few people in the world that are a certified Kirkpatrick evaluation program facilitator. We look at why you should evaluate learning, the approaches you should take and bust some of the myths out there that surround learning evaluation.   As always, here are your references: Find out more about the Kirkpatrick Programmes run with Developing People Globally: https://www.dpgplc.co.uk/courses-qualifications/learning-and-development/kirkpatrick-four-levels-evaluation-certification-programme/ Visit the Kirkpatrick Partners website: www.kirkpatrickpartners.com Sign up free for resources and newsletters on the Kirkpatrick website at: https://www.kirkpatrickpartners.com/Resources You can find details of the book Jim mentioned, ‘Kirkpatrick Four Levels of Evaluation’ on this link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kirkpatricks-Four-Levels-Training-Evaluation/dp/1607280086 Good to Great by Jim Collins: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Good-Great-Jim-Collins/dp/0712676090/ Find Kirkpatrick Partners on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheKirkpatricks and on Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kirkpatrick-partners-llc/ For Paul Thoresen (Survey Guy) visit his Twitter profile at https://twitter.com/surveyguy2   More from Jim:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirkpatrickfourlevelevaluation/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Jim_Kirkpatrick   Follow us on Instagram for exclusive Podcast updates! https://www.instagram.com/emotionatworkpodcast/   Learn more about Emotion at Work: https://www.emotionatwork.co.uk   Connect with Phil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/
