'Tips about Training KPIs'

-


 
First, my best wishes to all of you, for a wonderful, healthy and very creative year!

Before posting my new following article, I would like to share a short advises, regarding KPIs.

Every KPI's metrics is a story and always must look what kind of story will this tell. Telling something odd, interesting or knowledge?

The key performance indicators you choose to track should correlate directly with goals established at various levels. They may be goals for individual employees, for a team, for different departments, and for the whole organization.

                          


About performance measurement

  • Performance measurement has to be treated as a deliberate process.
  • Performance measurement is about focus, feedback and a fulcrum.
  • The words used to write goals must be clear, specific and observable to be measurable.
  • Design measures that quantify the ‘evidence’ that would convince you the goal is happening.
  • Engage and involve people in the measurement process, don’t just consult them.

More Impactful KPIs in training

·      - Attendance to Performance - Satisfaction to Performance

·      - Completion to Performance – Feedback to Performance

·      -  Score Performance Rates – Time to Competence Post Deployment

·      - Completion Time to Outcome – Training ROI


For Trainers...

Stakeholders hold the ultimate seal of approval on the effectiveness of training. They observe whether employees are able to transfer the knowledge/skills to their jobs. They are also responsible for the performance metrics of employees as well as the team as a whole. Knowing all this, it is safe to assume that stakeholder satisfaction is a crucial indicator of effective training programs.

Establish clear strategy to let your partners know, What you need from them, Why is important, and present them through always a dialogue, How you will achieve that.

When you’ve chosen KPIs that are aligned with the goals of individuals, teams, and the organization, keeping track of those KPIs on a consistent basis will show you where your training is influencing results and helping to meet goals.

For balance and greater success in training and measurement, must use both hard and soft metrics and types of KPIs, rather than one approach cause it will give you a fuller picture of the effects of your training program.

A good KPI should act as a compass, helping you and your team understand whether you’re taking the right path toward your strategic goals.

'Things to Consider Before (During) and After Training (Part 1… Before)'

  Always share in my interactions with clients and other L&D professionals (sharing it with you for another time) that, a trainer’s job is not only to teach trainees. A trainer’s also responsibility is to teach trainees to know how to learn, as well as to give them the motivation at the same time to constantly want to learn. So is very important to consider many things before creating a training program, during the training program and of course after… the training program. In my experience and knowledge, you can use all the latest technologies you want, but unless employees can see how the training is beneficial, they will not be motivated to be a part of it. The instructor also is the most important key cause must be effective to connect, interact, engage and transmit the training program including meaningful content.   It is important to take a broad perspective when designing a training program using blended methods so it is important for the trainer to have a blended… mindset,

  Recently read a very interesting report by Eurostat, on Adult Learning Statistics for 2022, in EU countries where I repost it full below.   My statement through this report, is that organizations in many EU countries doesn’t realizing the importance of long-term training in their workplace.   Continuous learning helps develop a “growth mindset”, motivating employees to adopt a flexible and adaptable attitude.
