• Refers to evaluation of training that takes
place during program design
• Helps to ensure training is well organized,
runs smoothly, and that trainees learn and are
satisfied
• Provides information on how to make a

Summative Evaluation:
• Refers to evaluation conducted to determine
if training has led to desirable outcomes
• Examines whether trainees have improved or

• Typically measured via paper-and-pencil tests and self-assessments
• Tests often preferred over self-assessments
