Abstract: This article explores the methodological foundations of planning and
evaluating field training, emphasizing the role of structured frameworks in enhancing
training effectiveness and accountability. Drawing on established evaluation models
and contemporary methodological approaches, the study examines key stages of field
training design, including objective setting, data collection, monitoring, and outcome
assessment. Special attention is given to the integration of qualitative and quantitative
evaluation tools, such as pre- and post-training assessments, performance-based
metrics, and feedback mechanisms, which together provide a comprehensive
understanding of training impacts. The analysis highlights the importance of iterative
evaluation and evidence-based decision-making in improving professional
competencies and practical readiness. The findings suggest that adopting systematic,
adaptable, and data-driven methodologies significantly strengthens the quality and
sustainability of field training programs, supporting continuous improvement and
informed management practices.
