SIOP Annual Conference
Impact Evaluation: From Employee Training to Leadership Development
Saturday, April 25, 12:30PM-1:20PM
Cancelled due to COVID-19 Policies
Organizations continue to spend more and more on learning and development (L&D), as a way to build their workforce for business success. However, there has not been much evidence that all the spending on L&D is producing more capable talent. Most evaluation efforts are not effective in demonstrating the impact of L&D practices. To help L&D professionals effectively evaluate the impact of their efforts, this session draws on the combined expertise of a diverse panel of experts in different L&D areas, ranging from employee training, high potential programs, to leadership development programs. Panelists will share insights on current practices and future opportunities in impact evaluation and ways to build value using evaluation data.
