Abstract

Background: Aiming to explore learners’ viewpoint regarding training program of health care providers based on CIPP model, this research was conducted on health care providers in the city of Sabzevar in 2017.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 139 health care providers working in the health centers of Sabzevar. The data were collected through a researcher-made questionnaire containing demographic characteristics and evaluation questions of training program of health care providers in four domains: context, input, process, and output.  The three modes of undesirable, slightly desirable and desirable were measured in each domain. 
Results: Through investigating learners’ viewpoint, the results of the research indicated that the situation of context and output of training program of health care providers were highly desirable, while the situation of input and process of the program were somewhat desirable. Overall, the results showed that the highest score among the four factors of the CIPP model belonged to the context factor with the mean score of 39.46 + 8.53 and the product factor with the mean score of 28.61 + 7.36 reflected the lowest score.
Conclusion: The final results of the exploring learners’ viewpoint of training program of health care providers indicate a range of slightly desirable to desirable situation for the program. To achieve a highly desirable level, it is incumbent upon the officials to reinforce the important factors such as teaching and assessment methods to their instructors. In addition, creating a definite plan for costs and developing the accessibility of welfare facilities seem to be crucial. Finally, it is worth planning more accurately in order to increase learners’ contribution while undertaking ongoing evaluation to receive feedback for revising the teaching program.
