The Corporate Learning Factbook 2013: Benchmarks, Trends, and Analysis of the U.S. Training Market
COMPANIES DOUBLE-DOWN ON EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT >> With greater financial stability, U.S. companies are committing more resources to training and development. In 2012, overall training spending rose 12 percent, on average, following a 10 percent gain in 2011. (See Figure 1.)
The continued investment in employee development is a sign that businesses are focused on reskilling their workforces. As the pace of innovation continues to accelerate and companies look to expand their operations globally, employees should acquire more specialized skills, as well as adapt to a workplace that is becoming more transient, mobile, and self-servingwhat we call the borderless workplace. These changes are challenging our traditional approaches to how learning is developed and delivered, as well as our assumptions about the role of the L&D team. Modern organizations are embracing these changes by rethinking how they operate to better align with business needs.

the place for learning; instead, the role of the L&D team is to facilitate and enable learning. L&D teams should build skills in performance consulting, gain expertise in new technologies including social and mobile, and work to cultivate strong learning cultures within their organizations. Social Learning Expenditures Jump 39 Percent Social learning is one catalyst for the transformation in L&D. Our research demonstrates that in 2007, just 11 percent of U.S. companies were using communities of practice in a training context; today, the figure is nearly three times higher. Similarly, spending on social learning has grown substantially over the past few years. In 2012, U.S. companies spent $13,675, on average, on social learning tools and servicesan impressive 39 percent jump over 2011 levels. We believe that the evolution to informal learning will be of a similar magnitude as the switch to e-learning that began over a decade ago.
