How training evaluation can be used to potentiate employee development in an organization

A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics

This work project tackles a challenge presented by a corporate university and aims to study the impact of training evaluation on employee development. This project is composed by two studies. Study I is a qualitative study that refers to a benchmark of corporate universities and their best practices. Study II, a quantitative research, examines the impact of learning evaluation results on competencies of company’s potential assessment system and on individual performance. Despite learning evaluation results should not be consider alone on employee development decisions, they are usually used in training decisions, such as further training needs; and in career development, for instance to select high potentials and provide career guidance.
