This reference guide for evaluation of school lunch training is a revision of a United States Department of Agriculture guide that was published in 1961. The guide is designed to help school administrators evaluate the training acquired by school lunch program personnel that is provided in training sessions for these persons. The booklet contains four chapters. Chapter 1 provides a rationale for evaluating school lunch training. It defines evaluation, shows why to evaluate, and identifies steps necessary in developing an evaluation program. In chapter 2, what evaluation includes is explained, with definitions of what to evaluate, guidelines on when to evaluate, and insights on how to select instruments for evaluation participants. The explanation of what evaluation includes is continued in chapter 3, which focuses on evaluating the training program. The chapter clarifies the importance of evaluating training programs, identifies factors to consider in preplanning training programs, and establishes criteria that should be considered in planning and evaluating training. The final chapter explains how to interpret and use the evaluation findings. The guide also contains a glossary, sample forms to use in evaluation, and a bibliography. (KC)
