Learning Needs Analysis and Evaluation is an essential tool that will enable you to demonstrate how learning/training expenditure contributes to your organisation’s overall performance and bottom line.This authoritative book:
- takes business needs as the major driver for learning activities
- explores how learning needs are identified and then clearly specified to ensure that training is targeted effectively
- covers the key area of how to plan for the learning - setting out the role of learning strategies and learning plans
- sets out a systematic four-stage evaluation process to assess whether the learning has been successfully transferred to the workplace and the extent to which it meets organisational objectives and provides value for money.
This new edition has been extensively revised (going far beyond the semantic) to highlight the changes that a move from ‘training’ to ‘learning’ have brought about. It also takes into account developments in the field, such as the emergence of e-learning and blended learning solutions. It is a highly practical book featuring numerous case studies and examples. With the help of this book, HR and learning professionals can demonstrate the contribution of learning to business performance. Whether you are new to the learning arena or an experienced professional, this book will provide invaluable guidance on this essential business topic.

I found this a very thorough publication. It provides substantial underpinning theory as well plenty of practical examples which acknowledge a wide range of opportunities, problems, and dilemmas. The material is presented in a very accessible way. The authors have encompassed many current issues starting with the debate on the wider subject of learning needs analysis and learning evaluation, rather than the more restrictive topic of training needs analysis or training evaluation. I found the clear links to other authors' works or models and succinct comments on the contribution of these very helpful.

I purchased this book as it was strongly recommended by one of my teacher as part of my training course, Training in Practice from CIPD, however I was disappointed as this book contains more theory and very less practical aspects.

This book arrived very quickly. It's comprehensive, and doesn't seem to miss a thing. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a better insight into the world of Training and Human Resources.
