You're likely already investing in training through mistakes and improper recovery procedures, which often cost more than a formalized program. To assess ROI accurately, we would need to understand which KPIs are currently below target. It's important to note that training results are lagging indicators, and various factors—such as equipment age, preventive maintenance, and parts quality—affect operational efficiency.

Corporate training has its place in the training curriculum, but it is generally effective for policy and HR programs that are implemented company-wide. Corporate training programs that try to specialize in technical areas will try to accommodate the differences between departments and facilities. When this happens, it becomes so watered down that it doesn’t benefit anyone.
Look at it this way: when you have a problem, the most successful way of solving it is to go to the “Spot” of the problem and view it for yourself. Technical training, to be effective, must be developed and delivered at the “Spot.”
