Predictive Learning Analytics™ (PLA) Certification Program
The program consists of three components: (1) Participation in the workshop Boost Training Transfer using PLA, (2) Implementation of an independent PLA project and (3) Satisfactory completion of a final project report. Included are three hours of voluntary virtual group coaching.
What if...
What if you had a revolutionary, data-driven method for increasing training transfer in each of your learning programs? What would it do for your reputation as a valued business partner with company executives? How would it enable you to demonstrate the actual value of your learning programs? And what if you could do all of this without knowing any more than elementary statistics and the math you learned in fourth grade?
If these questions are relevant to you and your L&D role, then the Predictive Learning Analytics™ certification program is ideal for you.

About the PLA Certification Program
What can PLA do for you?
The benefits associated with earning certification in Predictive Learning Analytics™ are significant and many. Included are benefits for you, your organization, or your clients if you are a consultant. They include:
- Less money and time wasted on learning that is delivered but not applied back on the job.
- Increased personal credibility in the eyes of business executives.
- More effective and efficient use of reinforcement activities by targeting participants who are "at-risk" and "least likely" to apply what they learned in a training program back on the job.
- An objective way to identify managers who are likely to do a passive job of supporting training so that their approach can be improved.
- An accurate way to assess the contribution to training transfer made by each of the three training transfer components and the 15 training transfer factors.
- An objective way to measure, monitor, and manage the amount of scrap learning associated with a learning program.
- Real-time identification of obstacles to training transfer encountered by participants following their participation in a learning program.
- Enhanced reputation among L&D colleagues.
Who Should Attend?
This program is for learning and development professionals responsible for measuring and evaluating training program effectiveness. No prerequisites are required to enroll in this program. However, anyone attending should be familiar with the five-level evaluation model — Reaction, Learning, Behavior, Results, and ROI. And have some experience conducting training program evaluations. A desire to learn how to pinpoint the underlying causes of scrap learning associated with a training program and to take corrective actions to mitigate or eliminate them is also a plus.
Program Objectives
After attending this innovative, highly interactive program, you will be able to:
- Identify the impact scrap learning has on wasted organization resources and lost credibility with business executive stakeholders.
- Use five key Predictive Learning Analytics™ metrics to identify the underlying causes of scrap learning associated with a training program.
- Predict which participants are most likely, at-risk and least likely to apply what they learned in a training program back on the job.
- Predict which managers of the program participants are likely to provide active or passive support for the training.
- Determine which research-based training transfer components and training transfer factors contribute the most and least to training transfer.
- Calculate the amount of scrap learning associated with a training program and identify the obstacles inhibiting participants from applying what they learned.
- Validate the accuracy of your participant training transfer predictions using Level 2 and Level 3 evaluation data.
- Create reports showing your Predictive Learning Analytics™ results and gain increased credibility with business executive stakeholders.
What's Included?
- A comprehensive participant workbook containing all individual and group workshop activities and reference information
- An Implementation Guide detailing the PLA implementation process and a set of job aids providing step-by-step instructions on how to perform each step.
- Three hours of voluntary virtual group coaching
- Digital copies of PLA case studies
- Review and feedback of your PLA capstone project implementation report
- Certification certificate suitable for framing
Certification Process
Obtaining PLA certification requires completion of these three steps:
- Attending all four workshop modules and actively participating in each session.
- Using the methodology to evaluate a training program. The program could be either one of yours or if you are a consultant, a client program.
- Submitting a written report describing how you used the PLA methodology to increase training transfer and the results you obtained.
