Often, we fall into a rut regarding evaluation of professional development events. We create surveys asking the same tired questions about facilities, materials, and organization; find ourselves frustrated with low numbers of responses on those surveys, and fail to find meaningful feedback to implement in future PD. Looking for a better way, one faculty developer implemented elements of Kirkpatrick's Four Models of Training Evaluation into all PD events for a full year. Come hear about what worked, what didn't, and how you can use the Kirkpatrick Model to gain more meaningful professional development feedback from your faculty.
