“Return on Investment” often brings a sigh of frustration to HR professionals as they both know it should be done, and yet find it particularly difficult to do. And yet it is a professional responsibility to be able to demonstrate that we have spent money wisely and delivered value for it.
 
This workshop will go through the basic methodologies involved, with practical examples which build to increasing levels of complexity. The workshop will recognise that not every project or programme has a direct bottom line impact, and even many that hopefully do have a fairly foggy line of sight. At the end of the day, a judgement is required as the costs and benefits are balanced.
 
We will look at ways in which cause and effect can be isolated, and at criteria to be used for undertaking a RoI exercise. We will explore participant’s experiences and provide a simple workbook to take away.
 
This event is designed for all professionals involved in training, and for HR people who institute projects which require up front investment.
