This webinar is the second session in the TDRp series. During the session, we will explore efficiency measures in detail. Efficiency measures represent the largest category of measures in learning and include measures such as the number of participants, costs, completion rates and dates, utilization rates, and reach. If a measure’s name begins with “number of” it is usually an efficiency measure. More than 100 efficiency measures will be shared, including those for informal as well as formal learning. We will also share which efficiency measures are recommended by ISO and which are benchmarked by ATD.
