Get a first look at the findings of Bersin & Associates' annual study* of corporate training budgets, spending, delivery, staffing and trends.

* Which segments of learning and development have been most affected
* Where organizations are allocating learning and development resources and where they're cutting back
* How organizations' learning and development functions are changing their delivery methods for greater efficiency and effectiveness
This webcast will be presented by Karen O'Leonard, principal analyst at Bersin & Associates and author of Bersin & Associates' annual Corporate Learning Factbook.

A question-and-answer newsletter addressing some of the most common and most
obscure HR. Ask a
question about whatever's important to you—whether it's HR, recruiting,
benefits, compensation or training. |
'Cash-out' of unused balances is a little-used option, but be thoughtful should you decide to implement the practice. It may result in unforeseen accrued liability.
