<p>Here's a great opportunity for you to network with other L&D professionals and line managers and gain the internationally-recognised Kirkpatrick Evaluation Certification.</p>
<p>In this 2-day open programme, you will:</p>
<ul>
<li>learn how to evaluate the effectiveness of training in your business </li>
<li>apply your knowledge back in your organisation to demonstrate the effectiveness of your learning interventions</li>
<li>understand how to effectively bridge the gap between learning and organisational development</li>
</ul>
<p>The Kirkpatrick Model teaches you the four levels of training evaluation starting with the desired outcome: <strong>Results</strong>, <strong>Behaviour</strong>, <strong>Learning</strong> and <strong>Reaction</strong>.</p>
<p>Hope to see you in London on the 11th & 12th September.</p>

<p>Key shifts in the world of work - the frequency of organisational change, the rise in knowledge workers and the collaboration now required to get work done, means that L&D needs to take an organisation wide view of employee development:</p>
<p>It requires a focus on building network performance capability, not just individual task capability.</p>
<p>It needs to embed learning within day-to-day work to drive ongoing performance improvement.</p>
<p>It must challenge and shape learning demand and the business understanding of performance.</p>
<p>In this new world we need L&D business partners across our organisations who have the skills and confidence to deliver against this challenging agenda.</p>
