The Value of a Skilled Workforce.
Workplace productivity is a key determinant of corporate performance. Training is a key determinant of workplace productivity levels. To improve workplace productivity therefore you improve the training your people gets. Sounds like an academic thesis, right?
Approximately seven out of 10 workers worldwide have been asked to accomplish tasks without receiving proper training beforehand, according to a global survey conducted by SkillSoft.
The survey also found:
- Some 90 percent of those working in management positions in the U.S., UK, and the rest of Europe concur that training and development is an essential part of their organization's strategy.
- Across various job functions, in general, around a third of employees don't feel they are given the training they need to progress.
