PROGRAM

Join us for a lively panel discussion as two winners of Training magazine’s Top 125 awards share what they learned about evaluating learning impact.

The Top 125 judges focus on how well applicants demonstrate the effectiveness of their training through Kirkpatrick Level 3 (behavior) and 4 (results) evaluations. Together with evaluation results, the submissions must contain descriptions of their commitment to employee training and development that result in the achievement of key corporate strategic goals. 

The Top 125 ranking is determined by assessing a range of qualitative and quantitative factors, including financial investment in employee development, the scope of development programs, and how closely such development efforts are linked to business goals and objectives.

Companies that wish to be considered for Top 125 ranking complete a detailed application, that is scored both quantitatively (70 percent of total score) by an outside research and statistical data company and qualitatively (30 percent of total score) by Training magazine editors and Top 10 Hall of Fame representatives.

We hope you’ll join us to learn more.
