Intro to the Common Metrics Note: Represents Common Metrics data from nine reporting regions. One region did not submit data.
Part 1: Characteristics of Training
Graphic 1 Quick Training Statistics 4,360hours of training were offered across all regions. 70,586 Range of total training hours across regions = 97 – 1,385 hours. Training participants attended.* 1,081 Unique training courses offered. *Note: This figure is not limited to unique individuals and may include participants who have attended multiple trainings.
Graphic 2 Training Delivery Mode 66% of participants attended trainings offered in a Self-paced Distance learningformat. Archived learning was the most common training format (502 trainings). 438 trainings took place in a Classroom-basedsetting. 57%of all training hours were delivered in a Classroom-basedformat. n=1076
Chart 1 Core Competencies The most frequently addressed core competency across all trainings was Community Dimensions of Practice. Only 3% of courses addressed Financial Planning and Management. n = 1,074
Part 2: Common Metrics Aggregate Data
Chart 2 Question 1: Improved Understanding Half of training attendees strongly agreed with the statement “my understanding of the subject improved as a result of participating in this training.” n=35,725
Chart 3 Question 2: Actions to Apply Learning Nearly half of attendees strongly agreed with the statement “I have identified actions they could take to apply information learned in the training.” n= 35,951
Question 3: Presentation Clarity Chart 4 Over half ofattendees strongly agreed with the statement “the training information was presented in a way they could clearly understand.” n= 35,251
Question 4: Overall Satisfaction Chart 5 Over half of attendees strongly agreed with the statement “I was satisfied with the training overall.” n= 35,581
Part 3: Common Metrics By Delivery Mode
Chart 6 Understanding by Delivery Mode Attendees in Hybrid trainings were the most likely to agreewith the statement “my understanding of the subject improved as a result of participating in this training.” n= 3,329 n= 4,133 n= 11,307 n= 16,956
Chart 7 Identified Actions by Delivery Mode Understanding by Delivery Mode Attendees in Hybrid trainingsexpressed thehighest level of agreementwith the statement “I have identified actions I will take to apply the information I learned.” n= 3,311 n= 4,131 n= 11,251 n= 17,258
Chart 8 Presentation Clarity by Delivery Mode Attendees in Hybrid trainings expressed the highest level of agreement with the statement “the information was presented in a way I could clearly understand.” n= 3,344 n= 4,139 n= 10,955 n= 16,813
Satisfaction by Delivery Mode Chart 9 Overall Satisfaction by Delivery Mode Attendees in Hybrid trainings were most likely to agreewith the statement “I was satisfied with this training overall.” n= 3,368 n= 4,125 n= 11,368 n= 16,720
Part 4: Student Field Placements Data
Chart 10 Question 1: Learning Objectives Over 90% of student field placement participantsagreed with the statement “my learning objectives were met.” n = 164
Chart 11 Question 2: Application A strong majority (94%) of student field placement participantsagreed with the statement “I identified actions to apply the information.” n = 163
Chart 12 Question 3: Career 94% of student field placement participantsagreed with the statement “information was relevant to my career.” n = 164
Chart 13 Question 4: Vulnerable Populations 86% of student field placement participantsagreed that the experience “increased interest in working with vulnerable populations.” n = 164
Chart 14 Question 1: Preceptor Chart 14 95% of student field placement preceptorsagreedthat “student learning objectives were met.” n = 106

Part 6: Key Findings
Key Findings Comparison Three-Year Comparison (2016-2018) Common Metric (CM) #1: Overall participant understanding was highest in 2018 or Year 3 (agree/strongly agree), with a shift leaning from strongly agree to agree responses CM #2: Overall participant actions identified to apply in the workplaceremained the same over all three years (85% agree/strongly agree)
Key Findings Comparison Three-Year Comparison (2016-2018) CM #3: Overall participant clarity has remained at 90% or above with a strong leaning towards strongly agree over agree responses (preference for strongly agree over agree ranging from 20%-11%) CM #4: Overall participant satisfaction remained the same over all three years (89%; agree/strongly agree), with a general shift leaning towards strongly agree to agree responses
Key Findings Comparison Three-Year Comparison Findings (2016-2018) • The most frequently addressed core competency across all trainings during all years was Community Dimensions of Practice. • There was a significant increase in the number of total training participants each year: from 29,525 to 54,983 in 70,586 in Year 3. • The total number of unique trainings also increased: from 532, to 779, to 1,081in 2018.
Key Findings Comparison Three-Year Comparison Findings (2016-2018) The total number of training hourswas about 3 times higher in 2018 than in 2016 (4,360 versus 1,467). Self-paced distance learning (or archived learning) remains the most common training format across all years.
Key Findings Trainings The Rise of Hybrid Trainings In 2017 those attending hybrid trainings were the most likely to agree with the statement “the information was presented in a way I could clearly understand.”, a slight shift (2%) from classroom based trainings as the lead in 2016. In 2017, those that participated in hybrid trainings were the most likely to agree with the statement “I was satisfied with this training overall. In 2016, those that participated in both classroom and hybrid trainings were the most likely to agree, thereby representing a slight decrease in classroom-based training outcome percentages. In the most recent year (July 2017-June 2018), training outcomes for Hybrid trainings were highest across all four Common Metrics >90% Strongly Agree/Agree on all items
Key Findings Student Field Placements Student Field Placements Key Findings (All 2018 student field placements ending by September 2018) Nearly all field placement participants felt their learning objectives for the placement were met. Similarly, most preceptorsalso agreed that the student field placement learning objectives were met.
