How To Outsource Training

What Are The Benefits Of Outsourcing Training?

​

There are many benefits from delegating your training to other companies, which include:

 

• Outsourcing tends to be 20-35% cheaper than having in-house trainers.[1] You convert fixed labour costs into variable costs, meaning you only pay for the services you consume.

• You can save time and money from having to train staff yourself or hire new employees.

• It makes operations more flexible, meaning your company can focus on their core competencies, helping gain competitive advantage.

• It gives you instant access to the resource needed.

• You can access high-quality, specialist expertise with the specific skills required – which may not be readily available in your company

• By converting a what would be fixed cost (a full-time salary) into a variable cost (a pay-what-you-need service), you free up your cash flow for investment in other parts of your business.

• Time is saved by having the search and selection process for finding a trainer carried out for you

• There is no need to license or make your own training materials

• There is no need to pay for a Training Officer to administer the training

• Training suppliers have lots of talent, giving the flexibility to get the quantity of trainers that you need, when you need them

• There is no risk of losing investment in training of in-house staff should they decide to quit – outsourced trainers are easily replaceable and require no investment costs

• You are more likely to achieve real behavioural change using an experienced, specialist trainer with a strong knowledge of teaching techniques, rather than in-house staff that have been given a one-off brief.

 

And by being saved all this hassle, you can save time and therefore money too, as your employees are paid to do focus on their own roles.
