RoI for functions like Sales, Marketing, HR(to an extent),Finance is already in vogue in most of the good companies, however, the training and development department spending their annual corpus generally dont have a full proof calculation mechanism which can enable them to realize the returns.The reasons are manifold, one the company only looks after the immediate return from the training exercise which is very difficult to evaluate as sinking in the training inputs and subsequently implementing those are not only time taking, but also calls for active management particiaption, which unfortunately is missing in most organziations
