Why budget cuts don’t need to affect training
Next to Marketing spend; one of the first budgets to receive a sizeable chop in times of economic instability is the Training Budget. It’s a shame but it’s true. But you can get smart with your budget and still invest in GML skills development by going Online.
Whether for yourself or for your team, online training provides fantastic advantages for maximising your spend as well as fast tracking the learning curve:
- By using technology to the fullest through web-based training, travel budgets are saved. Not only does no travel save a significant amount of time but all the associated costs of accommodation, lunch expenses and fuel are dissolved. That means it’s also good for your carbon footprint too!
- You can easily manage workloads and conduct training in shifts, fitting it in around your workload not the trainer’s. Instead of pulling whole teams away for long periods of time, online training enables you to schedule learning so that it has the least impact on time away from the job.
- No additional catering expenses! Besides a nice cup of tea and a few biscuits you don’t need to worry about supplying any sandwiches or cupcakes*.
So it’s great that here at Snowflake we have put our GML Fundamentals course online so you can get up and running with the first steps in learning GML. Learn around your work schedule from your desk or at home. In fact, you can take the course from anywhere you can access the internet. We’re the only European provider of GML training, and the only company to offer GML elearning. At only £250 you’re on to a winner.
And if that wasn’t enough to excite you then you can follow up the Online GML Fundamentals with some GML Hands-On training at one of our trainer led classroom sessions. Make your budget go further by starting online and then consolidate your learning by putting it into practice whilst learning more advanced skills.
To find out more check out all our training courses or specifically dive into our Online GML Training.
*Never fear. Snowflake classroom led training does not feature any sandwiches – we like to take you out to one of our nearby eateries for a proper good lunch to set you up for the afternoon sessions.
