This IDC study provides our forecast for the U.S. training outsourcing services market. This study answers the following questions:

What are IDC's predictions and assumptions relating to market forces impacting the training outsourcing services market, and what impact will they have on the market forecasts? What is the difference between the select training outsourcing market and the total training BPO market, and which market has the greatest opportunity? What are the drivers and inhibitors of training outsourcing, and how can vendors use this knowledge to craft their marketing messages? How will market dynamics shift between 2006 and 2010? How big is the indirect training outsourcing opportunity?

"IDC sees the conversation about training outsourcing shifting from one about pure cost reduction to one of cost efficiency," says Peter McStravick, senior research analyst, Learning Services. "It is becoming less now about how many dollars a company can save and more about how it can spend its training budget more wisely."
