Sustainability Training

In 2016, the global spend on business training was nearly 360 billion dollars. Over the past three years business invested over a trillion dollars in training. In addition to the ongoing development of new content every year, there is also enormous training content sitting on the proverbial shelf that continues to be deployed.

Protect your investment: Companies invest considerable time and money to develop training programs, whether face-to-face, live streaming or e-learning. After attending training, however, there are few efforts in place to ensure that learning is retained and consistently demonstrated on the job. Much has been written on the abysmally low transfer rates of newfound skills and knowledge to the job. Relapse to old skills and poor transfer climates are two of the most common culprits that stifle the impact of your training investment.

Old habits are hard to break: After training, we cross our fingers and hope the training takes. Often it does, for awhile. But then the unforgiving retention curve takes hold. Research shows that over 70% of employee training is quickly forgotten and never applied on the job. One-and-done training, no matter how thoughtful the instructional design, will succumb to the unrelenting retention curve without ongoing sustainability efforts. After all, there are few things more difficult to change than adult behavior.
