Effective Strategies for Training Budgeting and Proposal Preparation in HR

Hi, I am an HR generalist in the organization. Please advise me on how to prepare a training budget proposal for internal training to present to my GM.

Dear Mr. Peter,

In line with individual roles, please identify the learning objectives that are required to bridge the gap for optimum performance as targeted. Prepare a list of training modules based on TNA. Also, identify what needs to be increased, decreased, and eliminated among your employees and at the department level, again for optimum performance.

If you have an in-house trainer, identify his expertise and the number of trainings he can deliver. His salary can also be taken into account for budgeting.

For those modules that need to be outsourced from external trainers to be conducted in-house for a group of employees, request the trainers to submit their best quotes per module. Calculate their travel/stay/visa expenses if they are from another country.

Based on TNA or client requirements, if you need to nominate specific employees for specific technical or functional training, get their quotes per head and include them in your budget.

As such, there is no fixed budget per year as it is proportional to clients' requirements and desired employee performance meeting organizational objectives.

With profound regards,

Hi Shaik,

Thank you for the comment. Could you please provide me with a sample proposal format that I can submit to my GM?

I don't have a sample format. All you need to do is start with learning and development objectives aligned with your organizational goals and clients' requirements. Once you have information about training costs, along with your proposal, you need to submit the proposed TRAINING CALENDAR. Please let me know more about your training requirements.

With profound regards
