Measure the effectiveness of training

Answer:
If I have understood you well, you need to measure the effectiveness of training, if so, one way is to add the results of the evaluation of each attendee (I mean, testing of attendees), and calculate the average. And you can consider, for example, if the average is 80-100%, the effectiveness of training is ok.

You can also consider to measure the quality of the course, measuring the satisfaction of each attendee.

You can have a document with various metrics, and you can monitor the results, although it is not mandatory in ISO 27001.

To be sure I am clear the standard does not require you to measure or monitor your training program, instead it just requires you to define training requirements and ensure they are completed?
Thanks for your help!

Yes, you need to define training requirements and ensure that they are completed, and the standard really defines that all employees of the organization (really only those who are relevant for information security) shall receive appropriate awareness and training (about information security).
