Businesses frequently talk about ROI (return on investment). Savvy business leaders are reluctant to spend money or chase new things if they don’t think they will see a strong enough financial return. We challenge you to consider the same thing but from a personal perspective. In other words, what is your personal ROI?
Regardless of how far along your career path you are, you have made certain personal investments over the years. Now you’re thinking about additional skills training that can help you pursue more advanced career goals. Great. Where will you get that training? How much will it cost? Will it actually help you accomplish your goals?
What we are proposing here is calculating the value of the skills training you receive in hopes of understanding the potential ROI of your investments. We are also proposing that you take a good look at ProTrain’s online certification training. It’s a very good investment.
Degree Programs Cost a Lot
The news media has been paying a lot of attention to the cost of a college education since the start of the COVID pandemic. Something we all know by now is that degree programs cost a lot. In fact, the average cost of a 4-year degree program at a public, in-state college is nearly $50K – and that’s just tuition and associated fees. It doesn’t count any of the other costs.
Some careers require a degree. There is no getting around it. No online certification training course is going to set you up as a surgeon. But there are plenty of careers for which a degree is not required. If you work in one of those careers, what does the personal ROI look like on a 4-year degree program?
Certification Training Costs a Lot Less
At ProTrain, we offer a considerably less expensive alternative. Our online certification training programs cost a lot less than college degrees. More importantly, you’re not spending money learning information that isn’t pertinent to your job. You’re not acquiring skills that won’t serve you well in the marketplace.
Certification training seems like a wiser investment with a better personal ROI. You’re spending less to learn more valuable skills and information; skills and information that will directly pay off in your career.
We can look beyond the financial aspects and consider other parts of the personal ROI equation. They include things like job satisfaction, upward mobility, personal growth and development, and the ability to give back to others. Certification training makes all these things possible by equipping you with laser-focused knowledge and skills that will give you more control over directing your career path.
Popular Careers for Certification Training
With all of that to chew on, you’re probably wondering which types of careers are well suited to certification training. There are plenty of them, but here are the most common examples:
- IT and network administration
- Cloud computing and related services
- Software development
- Business administration
- Human resources
- Allied healthcare
- Accounting and finance
- Education and personal development
The list truly goes on and on. Believe it or not, ProTrain even offers certifications in cannabis bud tending, cannabis dispensary operations, drone piloting, and other unique careers.
