Kirkpatrick’s Levels of Learning Evaluation
Applied to Training for Papua New Guinea: Beekeeping: Protection from Threats
Kirkpatrick’s Levels of Learning Evaluation Assignment
For this exercise, I have chosen a section of the training for Papua, New Guinea: Beekeeping
Protection from Threats for the evaluation. This section corresponds to one of my training objectives
outlined previously.
Training Goals
All cooperative members will be able to accurately identify a varroa mite infestation in their hives and
correctly perform a natural treatment and correctly adjust their hive structure to protect their hives.
Training Objective
Beekeeping: Protection from Threats
Section
Purpose
Addresses
Section Seven
How to perform mite check on the
bee hive.
Objective 3: Learners will be able to
identify if there is a threatening mite
problem in their hive.
Kirkpatrick Levels of Learning Evaluation Model
1. Reaction - what participants thought and felt about the training (satisfaction; "smile sheets")
(Appendix A)
2. Learning - the resulting increase in knowledge and/or skills, and change in attitudes. This evaluation
occurs during the training in the form of either a knowledge demonstration or test.
(Appendix B)
3. Behavior - transfer of knowledge, skills, and/or attitudes from classroom to the job (change in job
behavior due to training program). This evaluation occurs 3–6 months post training while the trainee is
performing the job. Evaluation usually occurs through observation. (Appendix C)
4. Results - the final results that occurred because of attendance and participation in a training program
(can be monetary, performance-based, etc.) (Appendix D)
Cultural Considerations
1) Simple language
2) Images when possible
3) Multiple choice is too much reading

Varroa Mite
(Light brown kidney shape
about 1.5 mm in length)
9) How many mites did the person count? ____________
10) How many mites did you count?
____________
11) Did the person think that there is a mite problem?

yes

no
0-3 Mites counted - Your hive is probably very healthy and cause for concern for varroa mites
is low.
3-15 Mites counted - This would be a typical result, and most likely indicates a healthy hive
with a minor varroa infestation.
15-40 Mites counted - A mite count this high indicates that the colony is struggling with a
significant infestation of varroa.
More than 40 Mites counted - A colony that drops this many mites in 24 hours is severely
infested with varroa.

Results Evaluation
Monitoring and the correct determination of a varroa mite threat has supported a
program of early treatment of this threat.
Early treatment benefits:
1. Natural solutions are more effective
2. Less spread to other hives
3. Reduced loss of brood.
The beekeepers in the collective have been regularly performing mite sticky board
observations for a period of six months and basing their treatment options on the
results.
The health of the hives have increased by 20% and no hives have been lost to the
varroa mite.
