TRAINING CONTENT REVIEW GUIDELINES
It is important to review your training materials throughout development so that you always know where things stand. Doing so will allow you to improve on any areas that are weak.
That said, evaluation of training content is not just for the trainer, Learning & Development department or organization. Evaluation is ultimately critical for the learner, as well, since they are the recipients of the training. This is perhaps the most important reason of all for taking time to perform careful and thorough reviews of your training materials.
