By now you are nearly ready to roll out your project management training.

Finally, you have begun planning to facilitate these workshops to ensure that the materials you present have relevance and applicability for the participants enrolled in the training.

Throughout your training needs analysis, you identified absolute and relative requirements and identified measures that might effectively measure a return on the time and cost of the project management training effort. Now you need to complete your training plan by putting into place a system for evaluating its effectiveness.

Most important, you ‚ ll view the evaluation process as a means of continually improving your organization ‚ s project management training program so that each training event builds on the successes and lessons of the previous ones.
