All who read it will gain critical insights into how to lower the cost and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of learning." ―Wm. Douglas Harward, CEO and founder of Training Industry, Inc. "Individuals interested in and accountable for deriving significant value from technical training investments will gain great benefit from reading this book and applying its wisdom." ―Karen Kocher, CLO at Cigna Healthcare "Demystifying Technical Training is an essential, complete guide for any learning organization. The overviews and concepts are clearly stated, while the case studies and sidebars provide practical examples you can apply in your situation." ―Jean Barbazette, president of The Training Clinic and author of Managing the Training Function for Bottom-Line Results "Considering the cost of acquiring and developing talent, why wouldn't all CEO/COOs insist on investing in people to improve results and reduce risk?
