To ensure that all its managers develop the skills required for effective leadership, the Brandex corporation instituted a mandatory management training program. All new managers were required to attend one of the four annual training programs, in which participants met once per week for eight weeks to discuss management theory and to simulate real-life scenarios. Written evaluations were distributed at the last session of each program. The evaluations collected at the end of the training program did not reveal any complaints about the program, so it is clear that the management training program was successful.
The reasoning in this argument is flawed because the argument
A. fails to describe the curriculum of the training program
B. assumes what it seeks to prove
C. fails to establish a proper connection between the lack of complaints in the evaluations and the goals of the program
D. uses the term “effective” in two different senses
E. overlooks the possibility that there are alternative methods of developing leadership skills

Aim of the program: To ensure that all its managers develop the skills required for effective leadership
Aim of the written evaluations: To know about the weaknesses of /complaints against the program, if any. (that what it seems from reading the passage)
Conclusion: Program is successful because the evaluations did not reveal any complaints about the program.
Error in reasoning: Just because the program did not receive any complaint does not mean that the program has been successful in achieving its aim.
Therefore option C
