10.40 An important measure of the commitment of employers to workplace learning will be the arrangements they make and the proportion of their expenditure they invest in learning opportunities for their employees as well as the volume of provision offered. Employers might be required to 'account' for their investment in learning in their annual reports and accounts and publish a statistical report on the volume and nature of learning provided.
