*Measure event basics (# of attendees, costs, etc)
*NOT attendee reaction
i.e. Sell 200 trade show booths at a rate of $1500/booth
Level 1 Objectives (Phillips ROI) - Answer-REACTION AND PERCEIVED VALUE (AND
PLANNED ACTION)
*Track attendee reaction to the event and intention for follow-up action

i.e 80% of attendees would recommend this conference to others
Level 2 Objectives (Phillips ROI) - Answer-LEARNING
*Measures what participants learned during the program
*Address the knowledge, skills, opinions, etc
*Should specify what the meeting attendee will be able to do at the end of the meeting
i.e. Score 75 out of 10 or better on a new sales strategy quiz given at the end of the
meeting
Level 3 Objectives (Phillips ROI) - Answer-APPLICATION AND
IMPLEMENTATION/BEHAVIOR
*Measure HOW attendees will apply what they learned AFTER the program
*Should be outcome-based, clear and specific
i.e. Achieve 75% of action plan developed at a meeting with 3 months of the meeting
