Evaluation of the EC Development Program - Long text descriptions of graphs
Figure 1: ECDP expected program outcomes
Figure 1 outlines the immediate, intermediate and final intended outcomes. The immediate outcomes identified are that key stakeholders and potential recruits are aware and understand the program, that participants are engaged in continuous learning and development and that participants have learning and development opportunities related to performance and career development. The immediate outcomes flow into the intermediate outcomes which identify that individuals are attracted to INFC EC positions, and that participants have developed competencies critical for INFC’s business. The final outcome as a result of the combined immediate and intermediate outcomes indicates that talented ECs are retained, and INFC staffing/competency requirements are well-managed.
