The 2nd edition of the Training Evaluation Pocketbook explains - succinctly, visually and with abundant informative examples - how to measure training results. In order to 'demystify' the process of evaluating training events, the pocketbook identifies nine possible outcomes to measure: reaction to training, satisfaction with the way training was organised, knowledge acquisition, skills improvement, attitude shift, behaviour change, organisational results, return on investment and psychological capital. The book's authors are Paul Donovan and John Townsend who have also jointly written three other titles in the Pocketbook Series, namely: Facilitator's, Training Needs Analysis and Transfer of Learning.

Ninety percent of all training is a waste of time (reveals a US investigation) either because the training is not transferred into the workplace, or the training design/delivery is poor or the participants are unable/unwilling to learn. The Learning Needs Analysis Pocketbook will ensure that your people development solutions are tied to the organisation's strategic plans and objectives. The authors simplify the analysis process and demonstrate that it can be strategic, rewarding, career-enhancing and, even, fun! The book is divided into three sections: 1. The Six Windows: a method of looking into the organisation to identify the most pressing and results-oriented learning needs. 2. The 10 Point Training Plan: the document, spreadsheet or wall chart where you can record all your notes from the learning needs investigation and plan for each training course or event. 3. The Tool Box: to help you do a great job at every step of the process.

Transfer of learning is the application, back at work, of knowledge, skills and attitudes obtained in learning situations. The amount of learning that is transferred back to the workplace after a training event is the key measure of the success of that training. There is, after all, no point carrying out the training if nothing changes as a result of it. But the transfer doesn't only depend on how good the training is. A number of key factors have to be in place. In the Transfer of Learning Pocketbook, authors Dr Paul Donovan and John Townsend identify 17 factors that determine whether or not new learning will be transferred and used to improve job performance. After extensive research within the HR community, the factors were identified and then prioritised according to their impact on return on training investment. The book sets out each of the 17 factors in turn before giving the reader 70 specific action tips, grouped into five sections that follow the five stages of the training process. Donovan and Townsend have collaborated on several other Pocketbooks, including the highly-regarded Training Evaluation and Training Needs Analysis.

While substantial advances have been made in the L&D profession over the last decade, evaluation remains by far the weakest part of the L&D cycle. Most organisations wish to evaluate the impact of their investment in training but few do it well, and the lack of effective methods is one of the key barriers. Complete Training Evaluation addresses these issues by providing practitioner friendly but academically robust information and guidance on how to evaluate all forms of learning and development. It draws on the author's own multidisciplinary research along with his practical experience of working with private and public sector organisations carrying out evaluation. The book provides practitioners with accessible 'how-to' knowledge and tools to undertake evaluations of both formal and informal learning. Full of case studies and practical examples of application of methods and insights, Complete Training Evaluation equips practitioners with a range of approaches that can be used depending on the training programme, capacity and capability. An online supporting resource includes a bank of evaluation questions grouped around particular aspects of training.

Author Ian Fleming directs the 'Developing People Pocketbook' at full time trainers and managers with staff training as part of their jobs. He deals with training needs identification, the pros and cons of different training methods, learning styles and learning blocks, finding and briefing external trainers, assessing the outcome and applying the learning. Reviewing an earlier edition of this title, Training Education Employment Journal wrote: 'A worthy overview of training needs identification, design, delivery and evaluation. Read this and you could save many hours ploughing through far less accessible tomes on the subject'.

The book concludes with a series of checklists that will enable you to take stock of your communications skills and shortcomings and to put these into context at both an organisational level and a group or team level.
