No doubt there are some HR/legal folks wanting to avoid the liability of 'training' someone on something that goes badly. The workaround to that is to have the training in an auditorium and not keep attendance on who is in the room.

or mandate the contracting entity do the training. I've seen that in places that tried to be equitable about the relationship with their contractors.

Typically the business gets billed for the privilege though

This is probably because the training costs money and they don't see the contractors as their responsibility.
