Mark your calendars for this half day session on Training and Development Programs That Get Results.

As a Human Resources Professional, you are familiar with the request from business to find training courses for your organization.  You spend hours trying to match the development need to the training course, managing the training budget, trying to determine the training ROI for your executives, only to see little change.  Since the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, it's time we look at what we can do to influence our organizations to create training and development programs that really work.

This session will provide participants some pointers to help break the cycle.  Participants will learn something about themselves, take some tangible ideas back to their organizations, tell a story or two, and have some fun along the way.

The session will focus on:

  • Why training is a bad word that you should stop using
  • How to stretch your development dollars
  • How to provide the success of your development programs
  • How to create sticky learning
  • How to get the results that the business is really asking for
