1 Evaluating effects from workplace training and employee development (TED) Annual HEAD Conference June 11th, 2007 PhD Student Anders Dysvik Department of Leadership and Organizational Management Norwegian School of Management BI
2 Definition and current interest (Tannenbaum, 2002; Kraiger & Ford, 2007) Training and employee development (TED) is defined as a systematic approach to learning and development to improve individual, team, and organizational effectiveness (Kraiger & Ford, 2007, p. 281). Workplace settings are becoming increasingly complex Pressures from both public authorities and customers in terms of improved solutions and products Organizations must be attractive for new employees and simultaneously prevent existing employees from leaving the organization An increasing trend that TED supplements formal education in workplace settings at the employer s expense TED advocates are facing increasing demands in demonstrating return on investments from such activities 59 per cent of employees between ages participated in TED during their last 12 months of employment (Nyen & Skule, 2005) Annual TED spendings have been estimated to 17,7 Billion NOK, or 2,8 Billion USD (Nordhaug, Gooderham & Døving, 2004)
3 Scope Lay theories suggest a causal relation between investments in TED and organizational performance at macro level (Sels, 2002) Norwegian companies are at the lower end of the scale in systematically assessing the return of investment relating to TED (Nordhaug & Nordhaug, 2004; Lai, 2004). Majority of TED studies limited to needs assessment, design, implementation, evaluation (Salas & Cannon-Bowers, 2001; Wright & Boswell, 2002). TED at this level is one of the most widespread phenomena studied within the HR domain (Whitfield, 2000) Cross-sectional designs insufficient in arguing for causal relationships (Wright, Gardner, Moynihan & Allen, 2005). Cross-sectional designs establishing positive relationships often lack control of performance prior to participation. When included, past performance is highly correlated with performance following TED (Arthur jr., Bennett jr., Edens & Bell, 2003; Morin & Renaud, 2004; Maurer, Weiss & Barbeite, 2003)
4 Causal assumptions It has been argued that TED is of little or no value for organizations, in that more than 70 per cent of workplace learning are informal events in the daily setting (Pfeffer & Sutton, 2000) Vast parts of acquired knowledge and skills may fade into oblivion (Arthur jr., Stanush, Bennett & McNelly, 1998) Contrary, recent meta-analyses suggest a standardized rho of 0.60 between TED and performance (Arthur et al., 2003) TED should be assessed based on employee perceptions and in relation to the bundle of HR activities (Tannenbaum, 2002; Lee & Bruvold, 2003; Wright, 2002) Managerial or HR assumptions of TED are not always in line with employee perceptions of the same practices (Edgar & Geare, 2005) TED should be assessed in relation to the mechanisms it operates, as a number of factors seems to influence participation, acquirement, and transfer of TED content (Kuvaas, 2007; Colquitt, LePine & Noe, 2000) Evidence-based TED as opposed to intentions behind the efforts, hypes or trends which assumedly justify such investments (Pfeffer & Sutton, 2006)
5 (Kraiger, 2003, p. 173)
6 Evaluating effects from TED Both researchers and practitioners agree that assessing TED effectiveness is important There are clear inconsistencies regarding how assessments should be conduced (Alliger, Tannenbaum, Bennett jr., Traver & Shotland 1997). Established evaluation practices are not always based on evidence-based criteria (Kraiger, 2002) The most wide-spread practice seems to be the one which hold the least degree of evidence-based information regarding training effectiveness (Noe, 2002)
7 Are TED effective? For the last forty years, the dominant tool has been Kirkpatricks hierarchical model (1959a; 1959b; 1960a; 1960b) Practical guidelines based primarily on Kirkpatrick s own experiences in a time when few other models were available, Although revised and presented in later writings, the model has not changed significantly. Given the widespread acceptance of the Kirkpatrick hierarchy, any reasoned discussion of training evaluation should embark here (Kraiger, p. 333). Higher levels should not be evaluated if satisfactory results at lower levels have not been attained Direct relationships between the levels of the model Changes at the higher levels are more valuable than at lower levels Learning positioned in an behavioralistic tradition
8 (Fischer, Schoenfeld & Shaw, 2006, p. 405)
9 Are TED effective II? Scarce support for assuming that lower levels are of less concern than higher levels The field of learning psychology has evolved since Lack of conceptual clarity within and between levels Low or absent direct relations between levels 1 and 2 In a recent study of evaluation practices among 367 U.S. companies, 78% used level 1 measures, 32% level 2 measures, 9 % level 3 measures, and 7% level 4 measures (Van Buren & Erskine, 2002). The widespread use of reaction measures may be explained in that they are easy to acquire. When regarded in isolation, such reaction measures fail to explain the alleged relation between employee reactions and consequent performance at individual, group, and organizational level (Haccoun & Saks, 1998).
10 Are TED effective? III Affective reactions such as I liked the course and consequent performance.02 (Alliger et al. 1997),.10 reactions and knowledge acquisition/.09 reactions and skill acquirement (Colquitt et al., 2000). Recently replicated in a meta-analysis of 162 TED studies (Arthur jr. et al., 2003) Most reactions are positive, whereas, negative reactions demonstrate a positive, albeit weak relationship with performance (Schmidt & Björk, 1992) How should effects be assessed, do you wait for positive reactions to occur at level 1 before proceeding to level 2? A strong negative relationship between levels 2 and 3, which call for a more integrative perspective (Arthur et al., 2003; Colquitt et al., 2000) Assuming impact at level 4 becomes problematic as content increases in complexity, in addition to: Competing hypotheses? Controlling for past performance? In the most systematic efforts as of yet, no conclusions could be drawn between the different levels and impact at macro level (Alliger et al., 1997)
11 Moving on: Decision-based evaluation (Kraiger, 2002; Twitchell, Holton & Trott, 2001) What is the purpose for evaluation? Present evidence for decision-making Feedback to designers and trainers Internal and external marketing What are the obstacles to evaluation? Not required by the organization Additional costs associated with evaluation Lack of time Lack of training in how to evaluate Training function may have everything to lose and nothing to gain from the data
12 Moving ahead: Decision-based evaluering (Kraiger, 2002) (Kraiger, 2002, p. 343)
13 Moving ahead Decision-based evaluation II (Kraiger, 2002) Training content and design Formative purposes Reaction measures I liked the course.02, while I found the course content relevant.26 (Alliger et al., 1997) Novice participants may limit the latter (for instance student s evaluation of teaching) Training environment, transfer expectation, logistics and administration, overall evaluation, suggestions for improvement
14 Moving ahead Decision-based evaluation III (Kraiger, 2002; Kraiger, Ford & Salas, 1993) Changes in the learner Cognitive outcomes Affective outcomes Behavioral outcomes Changes not necessarily the same as improved job performance, as this is inflicted by a number of influences Level of retention over time Organizational payoffs Evidence that trainees are applying learned behaviors or skills back at work These behaviors result in more effective performance TED has bottom-line impact on unit or organizational effectiveness
15 Decisions regarding design Agreement between trainers and TED advocates regarding the level of evidence before initiation Arguing for effects of TED beg the presence of experimental designs, often difficult to conduct in workplace settings (Morin & Renaud, 2004) For those without a scolarly approach, insurmountable or not a problem at all For those with a scolarly approach, a challenging endevaour Often conducted as quazi-experimental designs Worst case scenario: Only immediate post-tests, and still arguing for effects from TED Examples of alternative designs Internal Reference Strategy (Haccoun & Saks, 1998) Level of design evidence should be in line with the strenght of claims made by TED advocates Less formal designs may still serve a purpose, and is far better than direct linkage of reactions and effectiveness, or failing to evaluate all together
