How To Measure The Success of Your Program

This article will show you how to use KPIs to measure the success of your program

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are metrics that indicate to you how well you’re tracking against your targets. While clear KPIs are especially important when it comes to running a Pilot, they should really support all programs as a way to measure the ongoing effectiveness of your learning program.

 

Select the appropriate KPIs for your business objectives & learning program
