"Even as recently as a few years ago the lion's share of training budgets was spent on traditional classroom training. However, in 1998, enterprises spent about 25% of training funds on technology-based training, and that figure should reach parity with traditional training by 2003."

Enlighten.Net lowers training costs

PROBLEM
Every time one employee has to ask another a question, the cost adds up. A ten-minute question involving two employees means 20 minutes of lost productivity for your company.

Let's say even one ten-minute question gets asked in your company every hour—a very conservative assumption. Two people out of commission for ten minutes per hour, eight hours a day, translates into a productivity loss of 340 hours per year.

Even if your average employee earns only $12 an hour, that's a hard dollar loss of $4,080 annually. If five employees each ask one ten-minute question per hour, you're losing $20,400 per year.

SOLUTION
Let Enlighten.Net become the "go-to employee"—the first place your people go to get their questions answered—and immediately cut your productivity loss by 50% (because the number of employees involved in a question drops from two to one).

Moreover, since your Enlighten.Net intranet holds your company's latest, most accurate information, the likelihood of misunderstandings and misinformation drops significantly.

PROBLEM
Attracting and retaining good employees is a continual challenge. Knowledge and skills become obsolete quickly. Employees want jobs that offer growth and continuous learning. But training can be expensive to provide.

What's the most efficient way to get new hires up to speed, in terms of both money and time? And what about retraining existing staff when policies, procedures, or conditions change?

SOLUTION
Enlighten.Net rises to meet your training challenges. Simply post your policies, procedures, and training outlines—even video demonstrations—on your Enlighten.Net intranet.

Employees often learn faster through self-training—and they don't have to bother their colleagues with questions that they can easily answer for themselves by searching the intranet. As a bonus, you can trust your well-trained, well-informed employees to make better business decisions.
