The prevailing practice of evaluating the effectiveness of community college contract training provides data that is too narrowly defined to adequately provide evidence of improved employee performance and, as a result, improved organizational performance. As a result of training, changes in employee job-related knowledge, skills, and attitude competencies effect changes in both employee performance and organizational performance. Measuring that effect provides important information for the employers contracting with the community college for training.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The prevailing practice of evaluating the effectiveness of community college contract training provides data that is too narrowly defined to adequately provide evidence of improved employee performance and, as a result, improved organizational performance. As a result of training, changes in employee job-related knowledge, skills, and attitude competencies effect changes in both employee performance and organizational performance. Measuring that effect provides important information for the employers contracting with the community college for training.
520 $a Effectiveness, for the purpose of this study, is used to describe the degree to which training supports organizational goals. Primary among those organizational goals is to remain viable by making strategic decisions and investments to optimize organizational capacities.
520 $a A variety of sources of data was used to investigate the topic. A review of the literature was used to establish a theoretical foundation and a conceptual framework for the study. The theoretical foundation is an aggregate of accepted theories of education and adult learning. The conceptual framework is comprised of applied models of training and training assessment. The foundation and framework guided the research process and the development of the research method.
520 $a A survey of the 57 community and technical colleges of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho was used to determine the degree to which competency-based measures were used to assess the effectiveness of their contract training. The survey was distributed by e-mail, addressed to coordinators and administrators responsible for the contract training function at their college. Survey responses were tabulated and analyzed for central tendency. A Cronbach's alpha was used to determine reliability.
520 $a Results of the study indicate a high frequency of informal training effectiveness assessment and a low frequency of formal assessment. Assessing training in relation to job-related knowledge, skills, and attitudes competencies is rare. Thus, it is uncommon for the training's effect to be measured in relation to employee and/or organizational performance. Consistent with my findings in reviewing literatures, most community college contract training is assessed according to the employee's satisfaction with the training as an event, not as a means of improving performance.
