I am glad that you replied to this post. Thank you very much. Actually, I was looking for a methodology for measuring the effectiveness of training programs for the construction industry. We are construction engineers and project management consultants. I am looking for solutions for technical training meant for project managers, engineers—MEP, planning, civil, and internal staff. Please help.

Dear Madhai,
The best way to measure the effectiveness of training is through KPIs. First, decide what you wish to increase and decrease, and then conduct the training. I conduct training on Purchase and Inventory Management for my client in the construction industry. So far, I have trained about 150 purchase/stores professionals, and 150 more will be trained in the near future.
Inventory Turnover Ratio as a Key Metric
The one single ratio to measure the effectiveness of this training is the Inventory Turnover Ratio. Post-training, procurement must implement the training to enhance this ratio. There are scores of such ratios. You can align your training to these ratios. However, to understand these ratios or on what ratios the measurement of effectiveness of the work is to be done, first, you need to understand the Performance Measurement System (PMS) thoroughly.
Thanks,

ISO 10015 and Training Effectiveness
88% of trainings are considered failures. ISO 10015 highlights two important points: First, "Training Needs Assessment," and measuring "Return on Investment" for every conducted training. It states that if you cannot measure something, do not conduct training.

I second Mr. Dinesh, though I personally have no experience in measuring training effectiveness in the construction field. Also, if you are clear about the PMS and know where the actual skill gap is, it shall help you to arrange the required training sessions rather than arranging an unnecessary training session. A required training shall also equip your employees with knowledge and skills which shall help them at the work front and improve their self-confidence.
Wishing you all the best.
