Gaining Leadership Buy-in for E-Learning: What to Know to Fulfill Business Expectations

Leaders often view L&D as an expense. In recent years, L&D programs have called for significant increases in technology spending, which require proper business and financial justification. However, business leaders should consider your e-learning technologies to be investments because they call for tangible financial requirements, including technology and supporting infrastructure. These are capital expenditures. In this session, you will learn how to build a comprehensive financial evaluation that supports any type of e-learning-related initiative. Your evaluation will address your leader's financial concerns and show qualitative results by presenting a complete business case that leads to their buy-in. This session was recorded at the ATD 2019 TechKnowledge conference in West Palm Beach, Florida.
