Review different methods to collect data

Currently, RTOs must complete Compulsory Quality Indicator Questionnaires to evaluate learning programs.
Are these Learner and Employer Questionnaires giving your RTO the necessary data for continuous improvement?
Evaluating quality drifted towards a strong paper-based compliance, but not anymore. ASQA's audit model is giving
a lot more weight to evidence of the students' learning journey (experience) and outcomes of training programs.

This session will discuss effective methods to evaluate training, how to prepare an appropriate data collection plan, effectively collect and analyse data, and most importantly, use the outcomes of the evaluation for continuous improvement. This session will introduce the chain of effect, using the five levels of evaluation (reaction, learning, application, effect and ROI).

The facilitator will provide examples of methods used to collect relevant data at different levels, and will provide advice about how these methods will help you to produce evidence for audit.

You will also receive a free copy of the ROI Methodology Guide.

What participants' said previously when this topic ran

A good session

I particularly liked the way evaluation tools were linked to course design and analysis and also to RTO standards and ASQA expectations

In the future I would like a webinar where Javier addressed strategies for evaluating at Levels 3 and 4. It is important to evaluate at these levels but the problems seem overwhelming at times
