When selecting an eLearning solution for your organisation, pay-per-user training models may seem like a manageable option. After all, you’re only paying for what you use - right? But beneath the surface, these models often carry hidden costs that can inflate budgets, limit scalability, and create barriers to employee development.
Here’s a breakdown of the hidden costs associated with pay-per-user training and how they can impact your L&D budget and strategy:
1. Growth Becomes Expensive
As your business grows, so does your workforce—and so do your training costs. With pay-per-user models, every new hire potentially comes with an added cost, creating a scalability issue.
2. Inconsistent Budgeting
Predictability is key when planning annual budgets, yet pay-per-user models make this a challenge. Employee turnover, fluctuating training needs, and seasonal spikes in demand often lead to unpredictable costs.
3. Limited Access for Employees
With pay-per-user pricing, organisations often restrict access to training in an effort to save costs. This limits opportunities for employees who may need it the most, such as remote workers, new hires, or those seeking to upskill for leadership roles.
4. Administrative Burden
Managing licenses, tracking user access, and ensuring compliance can create a significant administrative burden under pay-per-user models. HR and L&D teams spend countless hours managing training accounts, reallocating licenses, and ensuring usage aligns with budgets.
5. Higher Cost Per User Over Time
At first glance, pay-per-user pricing may appear affordable. However, as your team expands and training needs increase, the cost per user often exceeds expectations, especially if you’re training in high-demand areas like compliance, leadership, and IT.
