Evaluation Plan

This course uses Kirkpatrick’s Level I, II, and III evaluation tools.

Level I: The National Disaster & Emergency Management University (NDEMU) Course Evaluation Form OMB No. 1660-0130 will be used to document participant feedback at the end of the course on overall quality of content, instruction, and facilities. The evaluation sheet uses a 1 – 5 rating system, with 5 being the highest. At the conclusion of the course, collect the evaluations and return them to the course manager.

Level II: This evaluation involves measuring and assessing learning that has taken place. Participants will demonstrate their proficiency in applying knowledge and/or skills learned. [Insert summary of final assessment here.]

Level III: The NDEMU Follow-up Evaluation Survey OMB No. 1660-0130 will be used to document participant feedback after the course has been completed and the participant has returned to their normal work duties. NDEMU will send out this survey to students 3 months after the completion of the course and collect the responses from the survey. The evaluation uses a 1 – 4 rating system, with 1 being the highest.
