This paper explores various interpretations of the term "evaluation" in the context of training and development. It looks specifically at definitions and purposes of evaluation. It is proposed that, in Australia's current economic state and in the environment of the Training Guarantee, training professionals need to address the need for comprehensive evaluation practices.
