From Activity to Impact.

Turn learning data into executive decisions.

The Mountain Top Metrics analysis framework shows where to take action from a course or portfolio perspective.

The Mountain Top Metrics Process

Most organizations track baseline activity like enrollments, completions, and hours trained for decision making. But what’s harder to answer is whether a course is performing well and with assessment data whether it actually leads to better performance.

Mountain Top Metrics helps organizations move beyond activity reporting by connecting learning data to performance outcomes. We provide clear, executive-ready insights into which programs are effective, which are inefficient, and where strategy should change.

WHAT L&D TEAMS GET FROM THE ANALYSIS PROCESS

Performance outcomes

Understand what changed after the training – when outcome data exists. 

  • Pre and post-training performance changes, when assessments are available.
  • Certification or attainment results for compliance and credentialed courses.
  • Clear indication when outcome evidence is available vs. not available
  • Outcome signals without forced ROI models or statistical overclaims.

Outcome data is optional – the product works even when it isn’t available.

 

COURSE HEALTH

See whether a course is executing as intended.

  • Participation compared to expected reach.
  • Completion quality and learner follow-through.
  • Time-to-complete friction relative to course design.
  • Clear course status: Healthy, Monitor or Needs Attention.

Separate execution issues from outcome results.

 

Executive Recommendations

Know exactly what to do next and why.

 

  • Directional Signals
  • Scale, monitor, redesign, or defer decisions for a course.
  • Primary driver behind the recommendation (reach, completion, friction or outcomes).
  • Confidence indicators based on data sufficiency.
  • Actionable guidance without requiring additional analysis.

    Built for decisions, not dashboards.
