If attendees can be encouraged to give/leave meaningful feedback, then there is at least some tracking being done of how successfully presenters have reached their target audiences.

Of course, basic feedback mechanisms that are commonly used (often called smile sheets for good reason) often give an answer to “did you like the class” rather than “was the class effective” but well written feedback comments and the creation of a culture that values feedback (which in some ways already exists in the community) can mitigate that problem.

As a result, I find that the combination of strategies you suggest makes a lot of sense.
