Instructions:

In Step 1, you’ll use the Training Evaluation Framework Template to

write in and review the anticipated outcomes of the training

intervention you are evaluating. The Template is a “blank” copy of

the Framework.

There are several ways to use this template. You can use the fillable

PDF form on your computer, you can type directly into the Word

version, or you can print the form out to complete on paper.

The colored arrows on the Framework Template outline four types of

outcomes resulting from in-service training:

Purple: Changes in the individual knowledge, attitudes, and skills of trainees

Orange: Changes in on-the-job performance of trainees Blue: Changes in patient health Yellow: Systems changes

You may wish to review the TEFT website for a reminder of how the

components of the Framework fit together. The Framework is a

variation on a typical logic model. It visually represents a causal chain

of outcomes resulting from a health care worker training program.

You can also think of this causal chain in terms of some simple IF → THEN statements.* To think through what you want to put in the Framework arrows,

here are some questions to ask yourself for each step in the

logical flow:

IF the training is conducted, THEN what, realistically, should be the result for participants?

WHY do you believe the training will lead to the result? WHAT evidence do you have that it will lead to this result? IF that result happens, THEN what next? And why? Based on

what evidence?
