This review is from: In Action: Implementing Training Scorecards (In Action Case Study Series) (Paperback)
This book is a Win for those in the HR and training profession on how to use the scoreboard methods in training. The chapter on the Value of Training Scorecards by Ms Schmidt is a must read. The case studies by those in the field are great examples of how to apply the concepts. This book should be in everyones reference book shelf. Jack Phillips and Lynn Schmidt are a great team in presenting concepts of ROI and value of training scorecards. Thanks to the editors and the contributors for providing this valuable resource. I have many years of experience in training and management development from postions in telecom and computers.
