Corporate training evaluation focuses mainly on information retention and skills acquisition. The goal is to determine how successful a learning intervention has been. This involves measuring the positive results in the workplace – usually in the form of behavior change or increased efficiency.
The approach isn’t wrong. However, the best way to improve a learning program is to find out where it falls short. Predictive learning analytics can help identify the pain points and gaps by gathering the right data.
Moreover, you can use it to get valuable insights into scrap learning. That is, the parts of the learning content people never use in the workplace. In other words, predictive learning analytics focuses on individual learners. It predicts whether or not learners apply what the training programs teach.
