Abstract

This literature review provides an analysis of relevant ASTD (American Society for Training & Development) competency studies in Workplace Learning and Performance (WLP) and other research findings related to the methodology used in identifying exemplary and average performers. These findings helped create the research model and methods used in the qualitative data collection for the rubric used for the CPLP (Certified Professional in Learning and Performance) pilot exam. This chronicle is for those who seek out a method of collection of exemplary status behaviors within their organizations.
