LSILADD13 Evaluate and improve learning and development provision
Overview
This standard is about evaluating learning and development provision and planning/implementing quality improvements.
Performance criteria
You must be able to:
P1 identify the purpose and scope of the evaluation
P2 identify quality requirements and appropriate measures of performance
P3 identify methods for monitoring, and collecting, managing and analysing data
P4 collect and analyse data according to identified monitoring procedures
P5 identify strengths and areas for improvement
P6 evaluate own contribution to working within quality systems
P7 ensure that potential improvements are realistic and achievable
P8 work with others to plan and implement improvements to learning and development
P9 monitor and evaluate the impact of improvements
Knowledge and understanding
You need to know and understand:
K1 the key concepts and principles of quality assurance and continuous improvement
K2 the quality requirements appropriate to own work context and work role
K3 how to research and keep up to date with quality requirements relevant to learning and development
K4 industry recognised standards relevant to learning and development and the processes and activities which deliver excellence in the work context being evaluated
K5 how to identify performance indicators relevant to the area of learning and development being evaluated
K6 how to set realistic targets, the contribution that targets can make to evaluation processes and the drawbacks associated with target driven work
K7 the strengths and weaknesses of different monitoring and information collection methods and how to develop and administer these methods
K8 the range, amount and frequency of data – including qualitative and quantitative – that needs to be collected and analysed to give valid information about quality
K9 the contribution that technology can make to the monitoring and evaluation process
K10 the principles of information management and how to establish systems for the monitoring and management of qualitative and quantitative data
K11 processes, procedures and methods involved in data analysis and interpretation
K12 what to monitor for specific purposes and how to record and store it
K13 how to contribute to self-assessment and evaluation processes
K14 the role and functions of individuals and teams in improving quality and raising standards
K15 the importance of involving the learner in quality improvement
K16 how to encourage the learner to contribute to self-assessment processes
K17 the impact of the wider learning environment on the learner experience
K18 how to use feedback to develop own practice specific to the relevant quality systems
K19 how to act on the outcomes of quality assurance, including self- assessment and evaluation
K20 how to contribute to quality improvement plans
K21 how to work with those involved in the learning process to influence and implement quality improvement
K22 the confidentiality and data protection legislation relevant to the collection and storage of information in learning and development
