Hardly ever do they use “Level 3: Behavior,” and they never use “Level 4: Results.” One of my discoveries was Jane Bozarth , who writes a monthly column called “Nuts and Bolts” in Learning Solutions Magazine.

Leaders are beginning to move away from controlling the discussion to facilitating the discussion. Early indications of this same paradigm shift can be seen in the learning and education arenas. The problem in executing this shift is not in setting up these new learning environments and communities, but rather in embracing the change.

The Learning Circuits Big Question for May is: How do we need to change in what we do in order to address learning/performance needs that are on-demand?

Finally, we need to build a chain of evidence for the results using Levels 1, 2 and 3. At the end of Level 1, Kirkpatrick now recommends a focus group to get information that wouldn’t be available right after the course was completed and to provide links to Levels 2 and 3. He says you can’t get to Level 4 without Levels 1-3.

That impact likely includes process changes that may affect employees in a variety of ways. My learning philosophy: dont make people tote around loads of information in their heads just so you can say you trained them. For example, a new CRM or ERP system can change workers’ jobs, roles, and even dictate future employment status.
