The purpose of this training is to provide school nutrition professionals with an easy-to-use reference for identifying and applying the key performance indicators (KPIs) that focus on the most critical aspects of a nutrition program’s performance to achieve success. Performance measurement is an essential managerial function. It exposes the gaps between current and desired performance, and provides evidence that progress has been made toward closing the gaps. These measures provide a numbers-oriented approach to specific areas of
emphasis, and assess results in an objective manner. Key performance indicators allow users to set standards of expectation, identify problem areas, and measure progress in correcting these problems.
Participants must attend the entire training session to receive professional standards credit for the class. Late arrival or early departure may result in forfeiture of training credit.
