eLearning is available to view 24 hours a day, whenever the learner needs it. Instead of artificially creating 'training days', staff can fit the training around their work, maximising efficiency.
The training can also be revisited whenever the learner needs a refresher, rather than counting on staff to absorb large amounts of information in a single day.
eLearning can cut training costs significantly. Travel costs and time spent away from work can be minimised by having training instantly available to all staff.
Similarly, trainer costs are also reduced as person to person training can be used only where essential.
Interactive
Learner Driven
eLearning is interactive. By engaging the learner and making them take an active role in their training, they are far more likely to retain information.
eLearning is learner driven. Staff can work at their own pace, in blocks of time that suit them. Learners can move quickly through areas they are proficient in, while taking their time over new or unfamiliar subjects. This ensures that staff make the best use of the time they devote to training and that their concentration doesn't drop.
Consequence Free Environment
Unique Training Message
eLearning provides a consequence free environment where learners can get used to systems and make mistakes without embarrassment. This is particularly good for learners who are reluctant to seek help if there is something they do not understand. These are the learners most susceptible to being 'left behind' by conventional training.
eLearning provides a unique training message to all staff. This ensures that tasks are performed according to best practice across the company, improving efficiency and worker communication. Rather than relying on peer assistance, which can result in bad habits becoming systemic, staff have a reliable guide they can access whenever needed.
