L&D professionals and managers responsible for learning programs, instructional and eLearning designers who want to build measurement into their designs, and L&D business partners or HR leaders who need to show the value of learning to executives. Some experience in L&D is helpful.

Evaluation asks whether learning worked at each level, from reaction and learning through to behaviour and results. Return on investment goes one step further and compares the monetary value of those results with the cost of the program.
