We would agree also.
There's some historical reference for this. When the development we used for this was first set up, it was agreed that management and labour would have some control over how those funds were spent. That was what became the Canadian Labour Force Development Board. That has since gone by the wayside, but that was the reason for doing that, to at least segregate that amount, to identify it as a separate amount and have employers and employees decide where best to spend training funds.
