Hi guys, can I ask for your opinion on a matter?

I am currently researching and found out that the there is a small intake, organic growth a. It is fair to mention that the organic growth coupled with small intake suggest that the firm invests highly in its trainees 'training?

To me these aren’t really connected. A firm could have an established large intake and still invests heavily into their trainees. Also many firm will recruit trainees but not necessarily invest in them. To me investing is about spending money, time or resource into training.
