Last year, we included data from 475 organizations in the final report. This year, we hope to increase the number of respondents and have the largest response rate ever. As we grow the number of respondents, we have more reliable data and the ability to break out data by industry and organization size. Having the opportunity to report more targeted data gives organizations a clearer picture of how their organization benchmarks against similar organizations.

We encourage everyone to find the person in their organization who manages the training budget and ask them to participate. The final report is free to ASTD members, and each year ASTD Research staff presents the findings on a webcast—giving attendees the chance to ask questions and hear from the report authors.
