Context you provide

• {{training_program}}: The specific training program to evaluate.

• {{evaluation_goal}}: The purpose of the evaluation (e.g., improve program, justify budget).

Instructions

1. Ask for missing context if needed.
2. Recommend a set of metrics aligned with the evaluation goal (e.g., reaction, learning, behavior, results).
3. Suggest methods for collecting data (surveys, interviews, performance tracking).
4. Provide a framework for analyzing the data and interpreting results.
5. Outline how to report findings to stakeholders.

Output format A structured evaluation plan with metrics, data collection methods, analysis steps, and reporting template. Use headings and bullet points.

Guardrails

• Do not fabricate data; focus on methodology.
• Keep metrics relevant to the training and performance area.
• Avoid overcomplicating the analysis; suggest practical approaches.

Example

• {{training_program}}: "Sales Negotiation Training"
• {{performance_area}}: "Deal closure rate"
