So what is eLearning all about?
eLearning is one of the fastest growing industries in the world right now. It offers organisations, schools and universities the ability to train anyone, anywhere at any time.
Unlike traditional classroom or training room based learning, eLearning can be accessed by anyone with a PC, smartphone, laptop or tablet - anywhere around the World.
More cost effective.
While the initial cost of developing an eLearning course can be significantly higher than that of traditional training, this expense is more than offset by the savings in implementation and delivery of the course. This is especially true when the course is to be delivered to a large and geographically diverse student body.
Saves time without sacrificing quality.
Hundreds of independent studies have shown that eLearning has yielded time savings of 35-45% over traditional classroom instruction while obtaining equivalent or better gains in education. In fact, compression of training time has the most visible impact on ROI (Return On Investment) by not only providing savings in wages spent on training, but also savings in opportunity costs for sales people and other key team members.
Minimises travel cost.
Most companies have realised that travel and entertainment (T&E) make up the bulk of their training costs. Numerous studies have shown that eLearning can cut the travel and entertainment cost associated with training by at least 50%. Other studies have shown that if implemented properly, these costs can be reduced by at least 80%.
Better suited for geographically diverse employees.
eLearning is flexible. It is self-paced and can occur any time and any place. As such, it is ideally suited for training employees who are dispersed globally. eLearning is easily modified (especially Web delivered content) thus making it more adaptable for translation and change of content for different cultures and languages.
Provides more consistent course delivery.
Just like a live performance, classroom training is slightly different each time it is given; Instructors vary the way they present material each time they give a particular class. eLearning is like a taped or recorded performance. No matter how many times the class or learning module is presented it will not change or vary. This leads to very consistent delivery of material that is not possible in a traditional classroom approach. This makes it ideal for compliance training.
Offers more individualised instruction.
Learners have the ability to learn at their own pace and at times that are convenient for their schedule. In addition they have the ability to skip around through the content and pick and choose what is important for their job or what they feel they are lacking education wise. They no longer need to sit through hours of classroom lecture to pick up the one or two concepts they happen to be lacking.
