You’re Spending on Training — But Are You Getting the Real ROI?

Let’s be honest — when it comes to budgets, training often feels like an easy cut. It’s not as urgent as sales or operations, and the results aren’t always immediate.
But here’s the truth: the impact of employee training is bigger — and more valuable — than most companies realize. At SKILD Solutions, we help businesses discover the hidden return on training — the kind you won’t see on a spreadsheet right away, but that transforms your team and your bottom line in the long run.
👀 So What’s the “Hidden ROI”?
We’re not just talking about test scores or course completions.
We’re talking about:
- People who stay longer because they feel supported
- Faster onboarding that saves weeks of ramp-up time
- Teams that are confident, capable, and ready to adapt to change
- A workplace where learning is part of the culture — not a checkbox
That’s the real value of training. And many companies are missing it.
📊 Let’s Talk Numbers

Here’s what poor training actually costs:
- Companies lose up to $13.5 million/year per 1,000 employees due to ineffective learning (IBM).
- 40% of employees leave within their first year if they don’t receive the training they need (Go2HR).
- Replacing one employee? That can cost you a third of their annual salary (Work Institute).
- Global disengagement, often tied to a lack of development, costs $8.8 trillion annually (Gallup, 2024).
Ouch. But the upside? It’s powerful.
🚀 What Happens When You Get It Right?
Companies that invest in smart, ongoing training see:
✅ 218% higher revenue per employee
✅ 24% higher profit margins (ATD)
✅ 60% more knowledge retention with e-learning vs traditional training (Forrester)
✅ And a culture where people feel valued and prepared — which changes everything
It’s not just training. It’s transformation.
