In today's tight labor market, education and training may be necessary for a whole host of reasons. A company that offers employees the opportunity to improve and add new skills, thereby making them more valuable to current and future employers, may be more successful in attracting new hires and even retaining existing ones than those lacking such programs. Training may run the gamut from in-house "universities" to virtual, Web-based courses. This paper has proposed that today, in addition to improving the skills of employees, an investment in training can help attract and retain the best and brightness. |
