Description
Summary:Quality and effectiveness are categories which have content and meaning of their own but they belong together. In educational practice, e.g. in vocational training for adults, the quality and effectiveness are interrelated. The effectively functioning organization delivers training of good quality. The article presents a socio-pedagogical (andragogical) interpretation of the training quality and effectiveness. Their presence or absence can be judged by the indicators which are grouped as follows: training outcome; state of the process; training organization; innovation of training.

This actually means achieving and maintaining a balance between the above mentioned indicators.
