Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best framework for corporate training surveys?

Use the Kirkpatrick Model: Level 1 (reaction) immediately after, Level 2 (learning) with pre/post tests, Level 3 (behavior) at 30–90 days, Level 4 (results) correlating with business KPIs.

How can surveys help justify corporate training budgets?

Pre/post knowledge assessments quantify learning gains. Follow-up surveys measure on-the-job application. Combining both with business metrics creates compelling ROI evidence for stakeholders.

When should follow-up training surveys be sent?

Immediately after for reaction data. 30 days for initial behavior change. 60–90 days for sustained application. Quarterly for long-term programs.

Can surveys measure training ROI?

Yes. SurveyNinja tracks knowledge gain (pre/post), behavior change (follow-up) and NPS. Link these to business KPIs in the dashboard for ROI evidence.
