Measuring ROI Certificate: Course Info

Content

Show the value of talent development initiatives using the measures that matter to your leaders and executives. To remain relevant, you must know how to answer two questions before they are asked. First, how do you know the impact you are claiming is due to your initiative and not something else? The second is, how do you know the initiative was a good investment of resources? This course will show you how to answer both questions using the language and measures leaders expect and respect. Beyond addressing just training programs, you’ll learn to answer these questions for talent development, organization development, human resources, technology, change, or quality solutions.

WHAT OUR PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING

Testimonials

"I have rarely learned as much in two days as I did in ATD's Measuring Return on Investment Certificate Program. This program was excellent. I left the course confident in the knowledge that I will be able to apply the learning quickly, easily and comprehensively."

"My favorite takeaways from the program include how to calculate ROI with less tangible goals and how to drill down goals to get to money. The [facilitator] was very engaging and informative. It was easy to sit through two full days of training."

"ATD is a world-renowned organization and is well known for supplying quality resources and professional development opportunities for those working in the field of talent development."
