What are the benifits of Online Training?
Thursday 5th January 2017
Online training is a cost-effective way for employees to obtain new and continuing learning. However some organizations are slow to make the move from in-house training to online training and some are reluctant to even consider the change in the first place. If this is you, we offer the following considerations:
E-learning is effective for training across multiple locations (and saves money at the same time)
Organizations benefit from online training in many ways, firstly all employees can take the exact same training program from anywhere they want, at any time. If employees can take a training course from their desks, organizations no longer have to hold day-long training sessions with a trainer teaching materials to a room full of people.
This means decreased travel expenses since there's no longer a need for employees to travel to a training site. Some organizations offer online training programs and no longer need an in-house trainer, others prefer to keep their trainer on staff but have him or her focus on other responsibilities.
Online training programs are easy to take and lead to increased knowledge retention.
People work hard day in and day out so why not keep training as simple as possible? Employees often find that online training is easier to take than instructor-led training combined with a good user experience, makes information easy to digest and remember It's flexible.
Everyone learns at a different pace and everyone retains information differently. We've been there where a teacher moves too fast for some students but too slow for others - those who already know the information are bored and zone out while those who are hearing the information for the first time struggle to keep up and get frustrated.
When you take a course online, you go at your own speed. If you get to a certain point and don't fully understand the material, you can go back for a review. On the other hand, if everything makes perfect sense, you can go straight through the entire course right to the test. Either way, it's totally up to you, making the entire process stress-free and user-friendly.
