Did you know?

U.S. employers spent an average of $647 per employee for training between May and October 1995. (That's only one-third of the year!) Extrapolated, that means almost $2000 per year was spent per employee in the U.S. in 1995. (Bureau of Labor Statistics, December 1996)

May we help you optimize your training dollars by providing free state-funded training for your employees?
