When investing in our business we always need to see a Return On Investment (ROI) and in a training context this is a difficult thing to measure. Mostly, all we can do is use ‘best guess’ methods without resorting to costly research and analysis. Fortunately this has already been done for us and the results are quite impressive. Read More
