CLO's Reasons for Outsourcing Training

Outsourcing some of your training functions such as instructional design (ahem) and delivery can help reduce the stress of creating and delivering content in an ever-changing environment. But don't take our word for it, here are some comments from CLO's Business Intelligence Board members, when surveyed about why they outsource:

  • Headcount reductions force us to seek outside assistance

  • There is no time for resources internally to develop training (this is the #1 reasons we hear, at The Training Doctor as well )

  • Outsourcing is more cost effective and flexible than hiring

  • In-house expertise becomes static and confined to specific areas

  • Subject matter expertise that the vendor brings

  • The vendor's ability to act as a partner
