Infusing Two Models of Evaluation into a Military Environment: A Case Study
Aaberg, Wayne; Thompson, Carla J.
Performance Improvement, v51 n1 p17-25 Jan 2012
Determining the worth and effectiveness of training used within a military environment is the same accountability responsibility that educational organizations, businesses, and social agencies are charged with for improving programs and services to society. The need for accountability implies the process of evaluation, particularly in governmental training programs. This article provides a case study, blueprint, and action plan for the infusion of two evaluation models as the foundation for determining the effectiveness of training within a military application. (Contains 1 figure and 7 tables.)
