Effectiveness of Abra Training
Everyone who attended training rated it effective, with 58% rating it extremely effective (9 or 10 on a scale of 10). 89% rated training effectiveness at a 7 or higher on a scale of 10. As you return to your office after Abra training, you’re finding that training has measurably improved your job productivity. This corresponds with the in-class satisfaction surveys that we conduct at Abra training. We’re committed to continuing to provide expert instructors, highly relevant content, and an effective training format.

The majority of survey respondents preferred not to travel far to attend training. In fact 26% preferred not to travel at all. And another 41% would prefer not to travel further than 60 miles from the office for training. You also indicated a strong preference for online training sessions. 75% of respondents reported they were “somewhat likely” or “very likely” to attend online training.
