Evaluating supervisory training at the job performance level

Abstract

In contrast to the evaluation of college course training solely by end-term examinations, the possibility and value of follow-up evaluation of extension courses for employed workers is stressed. An example is cited of a mail-questionnaire follow-up on 129 members of a course in human relations for supervisors, in which it was attempted to discover the extent to which the course influenced subsequent behavior on the job. The returns of 41 supervisors who participated in the class are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
