EVALUATION OF AN E-TRAINING PROGRAM (TREND ANALYSIS (MODERATE COST (The…

- - - - Its principle is based on the fact that when providing a good or service to a client, resources of the company are consumed, this can vary from one client to another, therefore, not all of them provide the same profitability to a company.
  - - - Strategic planning has two relatively different connotations; make a "map" of the probable future decisions of an organization or design a personal action route for the future.
  - - - A good system of information and evaluation of the quality of an educational system should include, in addition to performance tests, indicators derived from traditional educational statistics and other studies on particular aspects, such as the resources of schools and the processes that take place in its interior.
    - - The degree of information processing: elementary indicators, derivatives or compounds.
        
        • The comparability of information: specific or generic indicators.
        
        • The scope of the information: program and context indicators.
        
        • The phases of the program: of resources or inputs; of outputs or immediate products; of results or mediated products; and impact, or long-term.
        
        • The evaluation criteria: relevance, effectiveness, efficiency or performance.
        
        • Its use: monitoring, for immediate use, or evaluation, at the end of the process
- - - - Usually a form of planning is used as the logical framework, in which the hierarchy of objectives is established: general, immediate, specific, goals and activities.
        
        For each of the planned objectives, the effectiveness of the action that is evaluated is analyzed, obtaining a general efficiency index through a weighting of each one of the indices by objective evaluated.
    - - Satisfaction. The training has liked or not, with all the emotional elements that it supposes.
        
        • Learning The training action has awakened areas of knowledge that were not known or have reinforced any of the knowledge that the participant already possessed.
        
        • Utility. What has been learned, is wanted and can be put into practice.
        
        • Applicability to the workplace by reinforcing the competences and increasing the professionalism of the participant.
  - - - objectives: general and specific.
        
        • Content: selection of contents of interest to students, format and structure.
        
        • Methodological strategies: techniques that we will use for students to learn, for example: case studies, flexible groupings, various evaluation techniques, etc.
        
        • Tasks: selection of activities of different types, according to the objective, the number of participants, the place of performance, the evaluation, etc.
        
        • Tutorials: define the communication tools in order to carry out the tutorial (forums, chat, etc.).
        
        • Timing: specification of the calendar for each module / topic, calendar for tasks, exams, etc. In the case that the blended modality should also be detailed the face-to-face sessions.
- - - - The ICR is calculated by dividing the income of a company before interest and taxes (EBIT, of earnings before interest and tax) by the invested capital. In the calculation of the RCI, the invested capital is the total of the assets of the company after deducting all the liabilities
    - - Two companies with similar earnings and profit margins could offer a very different return on invested capital, which means that the two are very similar superficially, but one is much better than the other when it comes to investing their capital.
  - - - This profitability is what the so-called Net Present Value (VAN) tries to quantitatively measure, one of the best ways to evaluate investments in the short, medium and long term and that also allows to determine in a more or less precise way if the investment meets One of the objectives of every company: maximize the benefit.
    - - Cash flows are the difference between cash inflows and outflows or cash in a given period.
    - - The problem with this type of calculations is to estimate approximately the annual values of each of the cash flows, a task that is not always simple and that will depend on variables that we can not always control; A bad valuation of the cash flows can cause the calculation of the NPV to be distorted, leading to hasty and erroneous conclusions about the investment.
  - - - Costs include: cost of acquisition or production, logistics costs, operating costs, delivery costs, marketing costs; You can divide them between fixed and variable or cost of sales and administrative costs. Whatever the decision you make regarding the price, at least, you must know the impact that this decision will have and so you can assess strategic aspects and competitive context.
    - - a) Calculate the cost of acquiring or producing your product or service (per unit).
        
        • b) Calculate the cost of marketing and delivery.
        
        • c) Calculate your operating costs.
        
        • d) Obtain the unit cost of your periodic costs. Add the total marketing, delivery and operative costs and divide it by the unit number you intend to sell.
        
        • e) Add the unit cost of acquisition plus the unit cost of your periodic costs.
        
        • f) Subtract the% you want from margin to 1 (Example 15% = 1 minus .15).
        
        • g) Divide the cost between this fraction and that will be its price. (Example cost between .85 u cost divided by 85%).
  - - - In accounting terms, an asset belongs to the assets of our company. This is a good that we have and, which, with the passage of time and use, will be spoiled or obsolete.
    - - • Acquisition price: We will assign our fixed assets to the value of the acquisition price. Something to keep in mind is that the purchase price will always be the value of the `Base Tax 'of our bill, but not including VAT. If we did this last, we would alter its value.
        
        • Useful life: Time that our good will be working day to day at full capacity. This element is important because it will enter into the amortization calculation. To know the useful life that you must apply to your assets, you can consult the official amortization tables. These tables are published on the tax agency page.
        
        • Accounting depreciation: There are many ways to calculate depreciation (constant, numbers, digits, percents, etc.) but the most common and simple is usually the linear calculation. Basically, to obtain this amortization, we would have to make the following calculation:
        
        Amortization = Purchase price / Lifetime (years or months)
        
        It is this amount that we will record as an expense.
        
        • Accumulated Amortization: Here we will accumulate, each period, the amount that we have decided to amortize. This result is the one that reflects, in accounting terms, the total amortization that we have carried out of an asset so far. This information will be reflected in a balance account.
        
        • Book value: it is the value that, at a certain moment, your fixed asset has. If for example, I want to sell my laptop and I need to know at what price I should sell it to avoid losses, I will calculate its book value.
- - - - In the phases of planning and training design, the objectives to be achieved are specified (based on the pedagogical strategies that will be followed), and the quantitative and qualitative indicators that will be measured as control and guarantee are specified (together with the client) of results
    - - "Training Activity". In relation to the "in puts" and operations of the formative management. That is, the effort made with the training activity. Here we put the in the Quality of Training, according to the silver pedagogical objectives.
        • "Formative Results". In relation to the "out puts" of the formative management. Here the focus is on the impacts of the training developed, according to the objectives.
  - - - The evaluation systems focused on models or standards of standard quality and total quality.
        • Systems based on the practice of benchmarking.
  - - - Level 1: Reaction Measuring: level of satisfaction, interest and commitment of students. It allows to measure the quality and make immediate adjustments.
        
        Level 2: Learning That measures: knowledge, skills, attitudes and level of trust that was acquired by the participants. With the medium of learning can be analyzed where it has been successful and where it has failed, in order to plan other techniques or methods to improve the quality and quantity of learning in future programs.
        
        Level 3: Measuring behavior: allows to see if knowledge, skills and attitudes learned were transferred to the job; If not, identify the reasons that prevent it and make adjustments.
        
        Level 4: Results Measures: provides tangible indicators or indicators that allow us to provide feedback on training needs, that is, answer questions such as: does the course help you improve results? Did what was anticipated occur as a result of the training experience?
- - - - However, the results and effects, direct and indirect, are evaluated less frequently, even when those responsible for implementation, companies and the participants themselves, are increasingly interested in knowing them.
    - - These different levels should be considered as a system, since between them there is a causal and sequential relationship
  - - - These groups coincide in their fundamental characteristics or at least in those that are considered critical and that can influence the expected impact. The members of the control group, by definition, must not have participated in the training actions that are evaluated.
        
        The conformation of a control group is carried out in order to establish the so-called scenario versus factual. This term is used to express the guarantee that the impacts are actually attributable to the training action and would not have been generated if the action had not taken place.
  - - - Knowing the profitability of an investment allows us to know how good the performance of the investment has been or, in the case of an offered profitability, to know how attractive it is.
    - - In case of being a business project, to find the profitability we must take into account the investment and future profit, which will be given by the projected profits (difference between income and projected expenses).
- - - - You must know what the cost of your service is in order to calculate your price and not work below your costs. It is important to differentiate two types of costs, fixed and variable.
    - - The variable costs are those that change with the volume of activity of your company. Among others, it is worth mentioning the cost of the direct labor of the people involved in the provision of the service, certain public services, the expenses of the marketing area, the materials to be used,
  - - - . In every organization daily decisions are made, some are routine, such as hiring a new employee; others are not, how to introduce or eliminate a product line, both require adequate information.
  - - - Therefore, the more efficient the labor of these, the less resources will be invested in their production and, consequently, the smaller the amount of the expenses will be.
    - - It is necessary to take into account that the cost of production is one of the most important indicators to be considered in the institutions to execute and carry it out.
