These are:
Conducting evaluations
Gathering evidence
The most relevant approach for any given organization will depend
on its stakeholders’ goals and values. Anderson’s model suggests
four categories of measure, as follows:
No ‘One-size-fits-all’
The main advantage of the Anderson Value of Learning Model is that
it embraces the concept that adopting a ‘one-size-fits-all’ to training
isn’t productive or feasible. This marks it out among other learning
evaluation models. Unlike other evaluation models that are looking
at training at an instructional level, the Anderson model is focused
squarely on the overall learning strategy and the extent to which
this is aligned with an organization’s strategic priorities.
The Anderson Value of Learning Model also helps address the Value
challenge, which is the difficulty that many organizations face when
collecting data to prove the value of a training course or learning
journey. Whereas other models call for the collection of vast
quantities of data (to link training with ROI, for example) the
Anderson Value of Learning Model is looking at training at an
organization level and taking a broader approach to evaluation.
Limited depth
Limited direction on direct learning evaluation
Limited depth
The main limitation of the Anderson Value of Learning Model is that
it only gives an organization a high-level evaluation of the
effectiveness of their training programs. Arguably this makes it
simpler and cheaper to apply, but it also means that the model
lacks the depth that you get from other evaluation models.
7. Conclusion
Anderson’s model of training evaluation offers many benefits over
other training evaluation models. As it is designed to be applied at
an organization level, it is less complex to implement than other
types of learning evaluation models. Given its focus on alignment of
the strategic priorities and learning strategy of an organization, the
Anderson Model is arguable more practical and feasible to
implement than other evaluation models. However, in practice, the
Anderson model must be combined with other evaluation models
(such as the Kirkpatrick model) to provide a holistic picture of the
value that a training program or learning journey is bringing to the
organization.
