Abstract

It is always difficult to measure the quality and efficacy of a formative event. The event assessed in this study was an outdoor course and the aspects considered were the degree of satisfaction, the increase of knowledge, modifications in behavior and working actions and organized change (4 levels according to Kirkpatrick). Data were collected by means of a questionnaire which the 28 course participants were asked to fill in. Some aspects were statistically tested to evaluate eventual associations between the role of the participant and the answer given but these were not found to be significant. Results showed a good levels of satisfaction and knowledge increase which, in terms of working procedures and individual behavior, resulted in better team-building and mutual appreciation, whereas organizational changes were rather limited and sometimes reflected disappointment. The study made the Health Authority aware of the value of human resources and of the fact that a formative event which acts on feelings and behavior may be the key to success in bringing about deep and lasting changes.
