Office Worker’s Attitude to Training (%)
Sample Answer
The pie chart shows the yearly duration of four different in-house professional training sessions in a large company while the bar graph outlines what managers and secretaries think about it. Overall, the duration of technical training is higher than other types of training and most of the managers and secretaries of this company opine that these training sessions are important for their job.
