Early Eagle Rate:
Php 11,800
Description
One of the constant questions of management is, “How much is the return on the training expenses?” Responses like, “it has improved production or morale” is acceptable unless the savings or increase are clearly evaluated and presented to management. If done properly, training will not be an expense, but a profit center.
This program will assist trainers to respond to the following queries:
1. To what extent are the participants satisfied as customers?
2. To what extent have the participants learned the information or skills?
3. To what extent has their behavior changed as a result of attending the course?
4. Did the training pay off? How much?
5. How do the trainees apply their learning constantly or as a way of life?
Who should attend
The program is designed for training and organizational development specialists, entry level training officers, managers and supervisors who are directly involved in staff and/or unit development, and to non-HR persons who need to learn and understand training functions and processes.
