Essay on Investment (ROI) of Training and Development On Ooredoo Qatar

The most critical and challenging issue faced by the fields of performance improvement and human resources development (HDR) is a return on investment (ROI). Investors use ROI for the evaluation of investment while deciding for investment. In this return on investment analysis investors give importance to the time, cost and magnitude of each available investment opportunity. Investors consider that if a return on investment covers all the cost of investment then it can be considered as a good return on investment (ROI). In this research study, the primary aim is to test the feasibility of different models developed for return on investment analysis. In the research work, the training programs of Qatar Telecommunications Company (also identified as Ooredoo Qatar) will be taken into consideration.
