Definition

In Luxembourg, companies can seek financial support from the State for their investment in continuing vocational training. The co-funding requests that they submit contain a qualitative and quantitative description of the implemented training plan. Company training investment indicators are analysed in this context.

Training effort is defined by the following indicators:

• The financial investment in training rate (taux de participation financière à la formation - TPF)
  is the direct investment in training divided by the gross total wage bill.
  
  
• Training expectation
  The number of man-days of training that an employee can hope to attend over one year (one man-day = 8 hours)
  
  
• Average direct investment per employee
  Direct investment in training divided by the number of employees
