Does Experience Based Training and Development Work?
Adapted from Vincent S. Litterini's thesis: An Examination of Perceived Supervisory Change to Production Rate, Product Rejection Rate, and Delivery Efficiency. University of New Hampshire, September 2001. University of New Hampshire Publications
THE RESEARCH
The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of an experience-based training and development program on the supervision abilities of participants. The changes were measured using Kirkpatrick's four levels of evaluation model.
Sixteen participants were interviewed three months after the training to evaluate bottom line earnings for the company and related changes in participants. The participants were also interviewed as to which elements at the training were beneficial.
THE RESULTS
The results of this research revealed significant behavior changes in participants which positively affected their organization's bottom-line. These changes in behaviors provided savings, identified by supervisors, of several hundred thousand dollars. The savings came in the categories of reduced product rejection rate, improved product delivery efficiency, and improved production rate
THE IMPLICATIONS
The majority of the participants identified the experience-based training and development component as the most effective teaching methodology.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?"
