The mission of corporate eLearning is to supply the workforce with an up-to-date and cost-effective program that yields motivated, skilled, loyal and knowledgeable workers.
For global organizations, live classroom-based training is becoming too costly and cumbersome. Even if employees had the time to attend all the courses and seminars and to read all the books and reports, they should remain up-to-date in their area of work. The cost of such learning would be prohibitive.
The need has arrived for organizations to transform their learning points to a more modern, efficient, and flexible alternative: eLearning.
ELearning has definite benefits over traditional classroom training. While the most obvious are the flexibility and the cost savings from not having to travel or spend excess time away from work, there are also others that might not be as obvious. For example:
-
It is less expensive to develop -- authoring software to produce your own training programs.
-
It is self-paced -- most eLearning programs can be taken at one’s convenience.
-
It moves faster -- this is partly because the individualized approach allows learners to skip material they already know and understand and move onto the issues they need training on.
-
It provides a consistent message -- eLearning eliminates the problems associated with different instructors teaching slightly different material on the same subject. For company-based training, this is often critical.
-
It can work from any location and at any time - can go through training sessions from anywhere, usually at any time.
-
It can be updated easily and quickly -- online Learning sessions are especially easy to keep up-to-date because the updated materials are simply uploaded.
-
It can lead to increased retention and a stronger grasp on the subject -- Many elements in eLearning, such as video, audio, quizzes, interactions, etc. can be combined to reinforce the message. There is also the ability to revisit or replay sections of the training program that might not have been clear the first time around. Try that in a crowded auditorium!
-
It can be easily managed for large groups of students – it allows corporate training directors, HR managers and others to keep track of the course offerings schedule or assign training for employees and track their progress and results. Managers can review a student's scores and identify any areas that need additional training.
