Self-Assessment of Training Impact at Work: Validation of a Measurement Scale
Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: This paper reports an experience of developing and validating a measurement scale of Training Impact at Work. This research has made possible the creation of a psychometrically valid tool applicable in studies related to the effects of training on individual performance. According to Borges-Andrade and Abbad (1996) and Abbad (1999), this sort of investigation is rare both in national and foreign literature. Few attempts have been made in connection with organizing measurements to determine the level of training effectiveness involving trained individuals. The lack of reliable, valid measurements of learning, reaction (satisfaction with training) and training impact at work may be one of the factors that have been hindering research progress in the training evaluation area. Training impact at work is one of the main criterion variables of training evaluation models and corresponds to the third level of evaluation in more traditional approaches
