Employee development and training are crucial elements in the operation of all businesses, who are increasingly turning to external training providers to meet their training needs. Yet in these current times of economic difficulty, when companies cannot afford to waste a penny on ineffective training, training managers need to be sure that their provider is delivering the high return on investment that they need.A quick search on Google’s platform for training companies will return over 938 million results alone with a wide range of specialties from management through to marketing. Proof indeed that there are no shortage of options available to the training manager. Thankfully, there is a procedure training managers can follow when commencing a training provider selection process.
Appointing external training providers used to be an informal affair when training budgets were more generous and the pressure to demonstrate a return less intense. That has all changed. Today, learning and development is under much more scrutiny and demonstrating the effectiveness of training takes a higher priority. Those training managers who follow a structured procurement process will find it easier to find efficiency savings and a training provider which suits the fit of the company and its learning culture.
Jackie Northedge, who helps companies source training providers says, “Finding the right training provider will really benefit you or your organisation so make sure before you start looking you know what you want to achieve from having the training.”
Carl Duncker, a marketing trainer who works alongside training managers in delivering in-house training says, "Training managers do an excellent job of creating and delivering in-house training programs to develop the skills that their organisation needs. Inevitably, there will be specialist skills that require partnership with an external training company. It is essential that those companies are the right fit for the organisation to help it succeed.”
