Some Considerations in Analyzing Training Costs and Job Performance.

Abstract

In summary, a task-level approach to cost-effectiveness analysis would use information from an analysis of training content, from occupational analysis, and from performance ratings. It would relate the costs of training and number of tasks in which training is provided to the number of tasks in which proficiency is attained at the completion of training. Thus, the effectiveness of a training program might be expressed by the number of tasks taught, times the quality of performance. Similarly, training costs could also be related to the actual frequency and quality of task performance in different types of jobs.
