Listen "306 — Has it worked?: Measuring impact"
Episode Synopsis
Have learners engaged? Learnt what we set out for them to learn? More importantly, have they bought that learning into how they perform? Is this having the wider impact we wanted? All the questions. So, how do we, as learning professionals, measure the impact our learning experiences have? This week on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Gemma discusses with teammates Claire, Sean and Tracey, about measuring impact. We discuss: what measuring impact means tools and methods we use some of the challenges involved. During our chat, Sean mentioned that more than 95% of CLOs know it's important to measure impact, but less than 5% know how. The statistic came from this blog netcomlearning.com/blogs/55/10-ways-to-measure-the-impact-of-learning-for-the-ultimate-roi.html In 'What I Learned This Week', Gemma spoke about the first woman who summited Mont Blanc, Marie Paradis.
