_____ allow an instructor to determine the success of an education program

• A. Trials
• B. Evaluations
• C. Lectures
• D. Demonstrations

Answer: (B)

Evaluations are the process that shows whether a training program met its goals by gathering data on what participants learned, how they can apply it, and the overall impact of the instruction. They use tools like tests, skill demonstrations, and participant feedback to measure knowledge gain, competency, and behavior change, helping you determine if the program was successful and where to improve. Delivery methods such as lectures or demonstrations focus on presenting information or showing procedures, not on judging outcomes. Trials are experimental and not the standard way to assess overall program effectiveness.
