Publisher's Synopsis
Scientific Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Controlling, language: English, abstract: Nobody would set up a new subsidiary or launch a new product on the market without making sure that this would pay off. This is usually different for training courses in companies. It often remains unclear whether the last SAP seminar was a waste of time, what contribution the recent rheological training courses made to the company's success and whether the training department works efficiently. Hardly any person responsible for personnel development dares to make a more binding statement than "Investments in training are assumed to have positive returns" - here it is made clear that every further training measure must make "sense" - on the one hand for the employee who experiences real further training and on the other hand for the company that a truly trained employee has "added value" in terms of value creation for the company. These are small examples of problems that education controlling is intended to solve and that are relevant not only in economically difficult times for the 75.3% of enterprises that provide continuing vocational training. The desire of many companies to make their investments in the knowledge of their employees transparent and to justify them economically is understandable when one considers the levels of investment: The continuing training market had a volume of approximately EUR 6.5 billion in 2013. Calculated per capita, 2000 German companies invest an average of EUR 624 per employee in training courses.
