My previous employer sent me for external training once in ten years and it was basically just to keep me leaving for a bit longer. It cost them under $1000.
I should have been more clear. I meant they don't tend to want to train new employees. They hire people who already know the job so they can save money and "eliminate risk" They'll train employees that have been there for a while already "proven themselves" sometimes.
