In turn, achievement of these learning goals demands a defensible assessment strategy that not only confirms achievement of the goals in the learning environment, but the extent to which those goals actually transfer to the job, and the extent to which those goals actually enhance performance. This course highlights these components of a modern training system applicable to any industry or sector.
