Inadequate methods for measuring training activities are a basic problem in explaining variations in training activities and organisational or personal success in interaction with training etc., as well as for statistical comparisons among countries, industries, professions or demographic groups. The manifold methods used primarily are only adequate for application in the privileged segment of governmental organisations and other big organisations such as enterprises with a highly developed training culture. In contrast, using a rough distinction, for unprivileged population and organisation segments, the methods are less suitable. This study presents a possibility for bridging this gap with a new ratio called TrainingActivityDegree (TAD). The first-time empirical TAD data reported here demonstrate practical applications of the ratio in statistics and in context with statistical methods.
