Resources Shared at Recent ASTD / SHRM Presentations

Resources Shared at Recent Presentations

I recently had the privilege of speaking at a joint ASTD / SHRM Chapter Meeting. The topic of the evening's discussion was The Importance of Measurement in Learning and Performance.

The discussion covered a brief history of measurement of learning and performance, as well as where measurement may be going in the future.  This blog post collects the resources that I shared as well as other resources that can continue the discussions and learning from the presentation.
