What Don Kirkpatrick has to say about Evaluating Training Programs: The Kirkpatrick Four Levels

“Four articles on Reaction, Learning, Behavior, and Results were printed more than 50 years ago in the Journal of the American Society of Training Directors (now known as ASTD – the American Society of Training and Development). They began to attract the attention of trainers. Some called them the ‘four levels,’ while others named them the ‘Kirkpatrick Model’ for evaluating training programs.

I had not called them either one. They were based on my 1954 dissertation for my Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin and research I had conducted between 1954 and 1959.

It wasn’t until 1993 that the first book was written when a friend, Jane Holcomb, suggested it because interested trainers could not find copies of the original articles.”
