Whenever we spend money, we expect a return—whether it’s the joy of driving a new car, the relaxation from a great holiday, or the enjoyment of a pleasant meal with friends. Finance specialists in organizations are no different; they want to see a return on their investments. However, training and development are often seen as costs rather than investments.
Why? Few Learning and Development (L&D) departments know how to calculate the return on investment (ROI) for training programs. When evaluations do occur, they’re usually limited to “happy sheets” completed at the end of a session. While useful, these evaluations don’t provide a true calculation of ROI. Additionally, ROI is often assumed to be purely financial, but returns can also come in the form of meeting expectations (Return on Expectations or ROE) or other less tangible benefits like improved staff morale.
In today’s environment, where budgets are scrutinized and spending must be justified, it’s essential for L&D professionals to demonstrate that training expenditures are sound investments with calculable returns.
Fortunately, there’s a course designed to equip these professionals with the necessary tools and techniques. If you’re interested, visit Measuring & Maximising Training ROI Training Course
