More information
For most learning professionals and organisations, training is "on trial", being charged with incurring expenses in excess of its value to the organisation. This workshop will prepare you to effectively demonstrate the value of training to the bottom line of your business.
This session will explain why measures like numbers of courses held and attendees do not equal value in the eyes of key business partners - the "corporate jury". It will bring to light the key metrics that are important to the business and how you can support them.
You will learn how through business partnership, you can solidify the importance of the workplace learning organisation to the company, and enjoy a secure position regardless of economic fluctuations. You will come away with concrete ideas for how to obtain your own "not guilty" verdict.
Based on the book of the same name, this interactive seminar facilitated by the world leader in training evaluation is not to be missed!
