Return on Investment and Knowledge Transfer.
Imagine that you are managing a far-reaching training program for thousands of employees worldwide. And, indeed, you need to determine how skills learned, are transferred to the job. We call this “Learning transfer” which is an especially effective tool for human resource professionals that are hoping to develop employees for today and for the future. With the use of data analytics, our team will evaluate and then adjust our tools and resources to ensure that the knowledge learned is being integrated into the job.
Our process will require participant accountability. And with that, your employees will complete an assessment of skills and knowledge prior to taking a course or full program. Upon completion, another assessment will be issued to understand what they learned and how they have applied that learning. The goal here is to gauge what is effective, as well as what is non-effective. During this process, we will follow a blueprint that can be modified as necessary to ensure that you receive the ROI, based on student progression and advancement, that you need.
