We've all come to realize that learning is a critical business process. The mindset that training operation is not a real part of business is crumbling. The corporate learning marketplace is exploding with new solutions that are leveraging the power of information technology in the service of human learning and performance.

This presents a huge opportunity for you as a leader in the training and development profession. In this Information Age, businesses must respond in real-time to transform workers, customers, and partners in real-time. Organizations want to track how much knowledge is gained, how quickly it is absorbed and how effectively it is exercised. The use of the Web to deliver learning reflects a fundamental change in how information gets into the hands of those who need it, when they need it, and gets executives what they need-measurable results.

Today, there is a new call for accountability. Measuring effectiveness, business value, and return on investment (ROI) are becoming more frequent topics of conversation when training and development is being reviewed and funded by upper management. Previously the number of programs, number of participants, number of course days, training costs, and end-of-course satisfaction surveys were considered sufficient indicators of success. Now, chances are, executives in your company are asking questions such as: "How do we know our training is getting results?" "How can we measure the ROI of our training?" or "How can we increase the impact of our training investment?"
