Introduction: the training impact evaluation is a scientific and academic challenge in view of the need to continuously improve the quality of programs based on its relevance and academic excellence. Objective: to analyze the results of the improvement of an instrument for the impact assessment of postgraduate academic training. Method: the instrument for the training impact assessment, improved and implemented in the 10th Edition of the Master's Program in Quality and Environmental Management, is a modification of the Kirkpatrick Model to include the impacts of the program on society. Results: the improvement of the instrument lies in specifying the strategic sectors in which the impact occurs, as well as the levels of introduction and potential generalization of the result obtained. In its application, the positive effects of the program on the performance of graduates and their organizations are evident, as well as the introduction of the results of research carried out in seven strategic sectors for the economic and social development of the country. Conclusion: the instrument developed for the impact evaluation of academic training allows us to know the positive effects of the evaluated program in the personal, organizational and social spheres.
