INTRODUCTION
The 70-20-10 model for learning and development (L&D) is a commonly used formula within the training profession. The model describes the optimal sources of learning by successful managers, suggesting that individuals obtain knowledge, skills and abilities in their jobs through the following mixture of sources:
• 70 percent from on-the-job experiences
• 20 percent from social sources such as interactions with others
• 10 percent from formal educational events

An OSF ratio represents the amount of learning from on-the-job, social and formal sources.
“The appeal of the model is the ease with which it provides a shorthand accounting for sources of learning. We call this an OSF ratio, representing the relative amount of learning from on-the-job, social and formal sources.
The 70-20-10 model is considered to be of greatest value as a general guideline for organizations seeking to maximize the effectiveness of their L&D programs through other activities and inputs. The model continues to be widely employed by organizations throughout the world, and as such has become a cornerstone of many L&D initiatives. But could it use an update?
This report explores:
• Where 70-20-10 came from
• What it looks like today: the 55-25-20 model
• The nuances that affect the OSF ratios in the model for different types of employees, across different companies and across different countries
• How the model relates to L&D efforts
