Hello everyone,

I need a basic outline on how to prepare a "training budget". It would be great if the following points are covered in it:

1. How to allocate funds for training activities.
2. Process of getting budget approval.
3. How to consider both internal and external training while preparing the budget.

I already have the training calendar and plan prepared for the financial year and approved by the management. The only thing I'm unable to understand is how to prepare the budget and present it in front of the management. Can anyone share some format for the same?

Thanks in advance!

Dear Nishant,

When you got the training calendar approved, at that time, you should have also approved the budget. What is the use of a training calendar without a budget? Based on the calendar, you now need to determine how many training programs can be conducted with in-house trainers and how many would require external trainers. The charges for external trainers will vary depending on the type of training program. Additionally, there will be expenses for hiring the venue (if conducted externally), training materials, stationery, etc.

Therefore, you will need to put in a lot of groundwork as this will be a lengthy exercise.

Thanks,

3) Boarding and Lodging of Participants (For training being conducted outside the office premise)
4) Travel Cost of Participants (if any)

8) Travel Cost of Coordinator
9) Cost of Audio Visual Equipment (projector, screen, speaker, etc.)
10) Cost of Photographer/Videographer (if required)
11) Cost of Gifts for Participant Engagement
