What we learned …What we learned …
Interviews with training administrators, and review of past CIP, Model Court and other Dependency Court training evaluation materials, found: – Constraints on evaluation activities
• Funding• Staff• Time
– Most evaluations limited to exit surveys• Numbers trained & roles trained• Reactions to training (faculty, content, venue)• Satisfaction with overall experience (expectations)
![Page 4: Sophia Gatowski, Ph.D., Consultant National Council of Juvenile & Family Court Judges Sophia Gatowski, Ph.D., Consultant National Council of Juvenile &](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022080915/56649e225503460f94b0e8bd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What we learned …What we learned …
– Behavior/ attitude change rarely measured • If measured mostly self-report
– Training impacts/ outcomes rarely measured• Few quasi-experimental or experimental designs• Lack of generalizability
– Measurement issues• What is being evaluated? • Multi-method approaches infrequent

Training Evaluation GuideTraining Evaluation Guide
Goals:• Define basic criteria for judicial training evaluation tools;• Provide evaluation guidance and tools that allow for
national data collection on training outcomes;• Help training administrators to design evaluation tools
that go beyond measuring “reactions” to training (more about this later);
• Provide guidance to CIP, Model Courts and others in designing and implementing effective training evaluations.

Guide Development ProcessGuide Development Process
• Conducted interviews with leading educators and training evaluators
• Extensive review of literature and resources on effective training models
• Obtained and reviewed past CIP, Model Court and other dependency court training evaluation materials
• Convened an Advisory Committee– CIP Directors, judicial educators, evaluation experts

Training Evaluation Basics Training Evaluation Basics
Chapter 1: Essential Components of Effective Evaluation– Designing and planning trainings with evaluation in
mind• Overview of effective training designs and strategies• Consideration of adult learning principles• Learning objectives, goal and outcome specification• Plan for using the evaluation data

Chapter 2: The Basics of Training Evaluation– Purpose and goals for training evaluation
• Measurement issues (Constructs, operational definitions, validity, reliability)
• Logic Models
– 4 levels for training evaluation• Satisfaction• Learning/ knowledge acquisition• Behavior change• Impact of training on outcomes
Training Logic Model Example
