Friends,
I was looking for some information online but could not find it anywhere. This is the place where business veterans meet. So I thought of asking for help from you.
Can anyone help me with this?

Please suggest methods or techniques used except for the Kirk Patrick's evaluation method.

Hello Mr Aasheesh,
I am glad that you replied to this post. Thank you very much.
Actually I was looking for Methodology for measuring effectiveness of training programs for Construction industry. We're Construction Engineers & Project Management Consultants.
I am looking for solutions for technical training, meant for Project Managers, Engineers - MEP, Planning, Civil and internal staffs.
Please help.
High Regards,

Dear Madhai,
The best way to measure the effectiveness of training is through KPIs. First decide what you wish to increase and decrease and then conduct the training.
I conduct the training on Purchase and Inventory management for my client in Construction industry. So far I have trained about 150 purchase/stores professionals and 150 would be trained in near future.
The one single ratio to measure the effectiveness of this training is Inventory Turnover Ratio. Post-training, procurement must implement the training in order to enhance this ratio.
There are scores of such ratios. You can align your training to these ratios. However, to understand these ratios or on what ratios measurement of effectiveness of the work is to be done first you need to understand Performance Measurement System (PMS) thoroughly.
Thanks,

Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.

88% trainings are a failure;
ISO 10015 highlights the two important points:-
First "Training Needs Assessment" and Measuring "Return on investment" for every training conducted.
it says if you cannot measure something do not conduct training.

Dear Madhai,
I second Mr. Dinesh though I personally have no experience in Measuring Training Effectiveness in Construction Field.
Also if you are clear about the PMS and know where the actual skill gap is, it shall help you to arrange to reqyuired training sessions rather than arranging an unnecessary training session. A required training shall also equip yur employees with knowledge and skill which shall help them at work front and improve their self-confidence.
Wish you all the Best.
