Door: Will Thalheimer, PhD, MBA, Principal at TiER1 Performance.
In our field, the learning-and-performance field, we often leave learning evaluation as a low priority. We know it’s important, but we are often frustrated with what we can do in measuring learning. Traditional models leave us wanting, the surveys we ask of our learners keep us paralyzed in indecision, we don’t get the budget or resources we need to do good evaluation. But wait, there’s now hope! In this keynote, renowned learning expert, Will Thalheimer, will share two learning-evaluation innovations that are spreading quickly across the globe: LTEM (the Learning-Transfer Evaluation Model) and Performance-Focused Learner Surveys based on his award-winning book, soon in its second edition. Learning evaluation is at the core of our ability to create virtuous cycles of continuous improvement. In short, to create the best learning, we must get valid useable feedback. To demonstrate our value, we must utilize methods that are credible and respected. Thalheimer’s work is based on years of researching learning to find practical methods—research wisdom that is integrated into these two powerful learning-evaluation innovations.
