Nichtkonforme Trainingsnachweise und Fördermittel- bzw. Vertragsverluste

Definition

Where training is funded (e.g., government or corporate L&D budgets) payments are often contingent on documented attendance, completion, or competency. While hard figures vary by program, Australian compliance and audit guidance for professional services consistently stresses that poor record‑keeping creates both compliance risk and revenue leakage.[1][4] If attendance sheets are lost, illegible, or inconsistent with reported claims, funders may deny payment or claw back previously paid amounts. In practice, this can eliminate the margin on entire cohorts. A conservative logic‑based estimate is that 5–15% of revenue tied to funded or milestone‑based training is at risk when documentation quality is poor. For AUD 500,000 annually in such programs, this equates to AUD 25,000–75,000 potentially lost through clawbacks, non‑payment, or forced discounts to preserve the client relationship.

Why This Matters

The Pitch: Australian 🇦🇺 training and coaching firms risk losing 5–15% of funded or contracted revenue when attendance documentation fails audits. Digitising evidence capture, storage and reporting protects this income and reduces audit stress.
