It would be better for you to show your work. I presume you know that "ROI" is "return on investment". What would the investment be- the cost of "course development" plus the cost for each of twenty supervisors? What would the return be- 50% of the costs of grievances. Is "return on investment" to be calculated as a percent per year? Does each supervisor have to be retrained every year?
