Are upcoming freelance trainers spoiling the training market?

Don't get me wrong on writing this article. However based on many discussions with training companies and customers, I have come to an opinion that there is no price consistency in our Malaysian Training market. Freelance trainers that comprise of anybody who has sat for the PSMB TTT certification or either an external TTT certification can get any customer they want just if they charge really cheap.

We have heard about trainers that charge RM500 per day for any in house trainings and these trainers gets very frequent customers located from Penang, Terengganu and Johor. Due to the inconsistency of training dollars charged ridiculously, this has created a very confusing Malaysian Training market. Many big training companies are finding it tough to sustain their prominent training subjects as this subjects are being trained by freelance trainers at 70percent cheaper.

The Learning MatchMaker helps any trainer or training company to win Inhouse trainings with customers however the only thing we don't do is to cheat our Training Market prices which is defined under regulations from PSMB. Hence here is our list of what a normal Inhouse training is charged based on the location of  where the training will be held.

Penang and Johor Training Market
In house per day: From RM2500 to RM4000 : soft skills

KL Training Market
In house per day: From RM3500 to RM8000: soft skills

Should you be a customer who is reading this article, I personally plea to you to not approve trainers that offer you really cheap training programs. And should you be a freelance trainer striving to win Inhouse trainings, make a visit to our office so that we can personally teach you how to market your presence better with customers rather than knock down training dollars.

Happy reading
