Description: This book provides the basis for measuring and analysing the cost and value associated with training. It looks at manual skills as well as management training analysis and explores the different approaches for costing training, controlling those costs and applying value analyses to the investment being made. Training in Organizations: A Cost Benefit Analysis also includes a series of international comparisons across a variety of industry sizes and types which provide organizations with an important benchmark for their own spending.
Review Quotes: 'This book has the feeling of a classic training text and deals with training at an operational level... If this book has an overall strength then it is in the practical examples, which are very detailed of how to take forward a performance improvement project with a variety of different activities...What this book also offers is the perspective the authors bring on the age old issue of training effectiveness measurement which will be useful for organisations who are less experienced in this area.'
