Training evaluation using the Kirkpatrick model (AI)

If you run a workforce cohort, public health training, or professional development program — and you've ever scrambled to answer a funder's question about who actually improved — this video will change how you think about training data entirely. Most training coordinators are doing everything right: baseline surveys, LMS modules, workshop feedback, mentor logs, pre-post assessments. But when a funder asks "show me how confidence improved from day one to month nine" — the data is scattered across four Excel files, two Google Forms, and a folder of PDFs nobody has touched since March. The problem isn't evaluation. It's system design. In this masterclass, you'll learn: → Why your LMS can only answer one question — and what that's costing you → The Kirkpatrick Model (Levels 1–4) and why most programs never get past Level 1 → What a Persistent Learner ID is and why it's the single most important structural decision you'll make → The hub-and-spoke architecture that connects LMS data to field evidence → The exact 5-instrument system a multi-country public health program used to go from scattered data to one dashboard By the end, you'll understand the difference between evaluation as a reporting task and training data as an operating system for your program. 🔗 Sopact Training Intelligence page: https://www.sopact.com/training-intelligence 🔗 Companion video — Workforce Mentorship Architecture: [link] ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 – The Problem: Scattered Training Data 1:39 – The Brutal Truth: System Design, Not Evaluation 2:00 – Kirkpatrick Model: Four Levels Explained 2:45 – The Missing Record & Persistent Learner ID 3:20 – Hub-and-Spoke Architecture (LMS as One Spoke) 3:55 – How Sopact Works With or Without an LMS 5:01 – Real-World Case Study: Multi-Country Public Health Program 5:11 – The Five Instruments (Enrollment → Alumni) 6:36 – Results: One Dashboard, Five Minutes 6:51 – Three Action Steps to Start Now #TrainingIntelligence #WorkforceDevelopment #ImpactMeasurement #KirkpatrickModel #LearnerTracking #MEL #SopactSense #TrainingEvaluation #NonprofitData #ProgramEvaluation #AIforImpact #LMS #SkillsDevelopment #SocialImpact #ImpactData This video tackles the challenge of managing training data, especially when demonstrating trainee improvement to funders. We discuss the limitations of current LMS software and introduce a "hub and spoke model" to consolidate data from various instruments. This approach ensures a complete picture of learner progress within any learning management system, providing comprehensive educational technology solutions. 🧠
