Course evaluation
Course links and QR codes collect participant identity, ratings, comments, and declaration as structured data.
Credential evidence
One evidence system for evaluation, renewal, and impact.
GTF uses structured course evaluations, renewal submissions, and Level 1 to Level 4 evidence records to decide whether trainer credentials remain active.
System flow
How evidence is created and used.
Every evidence record should connect to a trainer member, client or course, cohort, date, and review status. GTF should rely first on documentary evidence, structured assessment data, and verifiable links. Trainer Quality Council review is reserved for disputes, appeals, unclear evidence, complaints, or badge misuse.
Renewal evidence
Members submit client confirmations, learning cases, transfer cases, one outcome case, peer review, and rating-floor evidence.
Impact ladder
Reviewers separate Level 1 participant response from Level 2 learning, Level 3 workplace transfer, and Level 4 outcome evidence.
Level 1 to Level 4
What each evidence level means.
Participant evaluation
Shows how participants rated course relevance, materials, trainer engagement, confidence, and recommendation intent.
Learning proof
Shows what participants learned through quiz results, assignments, demonstrations, reflections, or scored practice.
Workplace transfer
Shows whether participants used the learning at work through action plans, manager feedback, behavior checklists, or follow-up cases.
Outcome case
Shows a client-confirmed result, business metric, operational improvement, or sponsor statement with assumptions declared.
Annual renewal
The minimum renewal evidence floor.
First-year credentialing may consider existing data submitted on trust basis. Renewal must depend on evidence from GTF systems or an approved equivalent assessment system.
