brip blap: 31 causes of failure #4: insufficient education

Hunter Nuttall · 1 year agoI'm still in shock about the $5,000 course. But yes, if you can get someone else to pick up the tab, the benefits can be tremendous. When I worked at a large company that offered a lot of training, I took many courses on various topics. Not every one of them was a winner, but some were priceless.

Steve (Brip Blap) · 1 year ago@Hunter: The $5000 course is nothing, actually. One of my colleagues was sent on a 3-week intensive training course to Europe to learn the local language for an upcoming project in that country. Imagine flights, hotels, food, PLUS course costs - and I don't believe 3 weeks makes you conversational in a foreign language! But yeah, some courses can be very, very useful. There's a reason the big companies are willing to shell out the big bucks for training - they know there's an impact.
