place
3. Evaluate both before and after the program if practical
4. Survey and/or interview one or more of the following :
trainees, their immediate supervisor, their subordinates,
and others who often observe their behavior
5. Get 100 percent response or a sampling
6. Repeat the evaluation at appropriate times
7. Consider cost versus benefits
