Learning is a strategic business tool, and measuring the Return on Learning (ROL) demonstrates the impact L&D has on the organization. While tracking technical skills by testing and demonstration is tangible, it’s the high-level soft, or life, skills such as critical thinking, empathy, communication, and an ability to deal with ambiguity that are harder to evaluate and determine the fiscal impact. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where a learning solution was implemented and resulted in a positive outcome but you were told you were unable to measure the impact? You can and should be able to since the solution affects performance and does have a measurable impact. This session will highlight metrics and techniques you can use to evaluate and put a cost on the impact learning solutions have regarding the performance environment within an organization.
More than traditional ROI, where the expenditure cost in terms of software, trainers, and tools to create learning is measured against the return (profit and revenue), ROL measures the cost of the problem and its impact on the organization against the cost of creating and delivering the learning solution. From attrition to leadership communication, you can measure solutions that provide a clear and effective impact on business processes and people. This session will discuss two to three case studies that address learning solutions used to generate discussions beyond ROI and conclude with a free measurement tool provided to you to populate fiscal results.
