Some research evidence

Untrained or undertrained desktop users will cost 5x more to support than a well trained worker

Untrained users can take three to six times longer than trained users to complete the same amount of work

A company will lose 10-30% of collective knowledge a year

Example - 46%

of support calls actually addressed training issue - $35 per call

Example - 80% of calls per month addressing user ‘how to’ issues

Fewer than 1 in 8 problems referred to help desk at all

Example - 5 top issues made up

nearly 40% of calls
