In a Time of
"Do More with Less," eLearning
Helps
The challenge of work today is "Do more with existing people and
resources." This has resulted in skill gaps, as employees are being
asked to do more than their experience and prior training may have
prepared them for. Again and again, employees are expected to have
cross-functional expertise in areas outside of their core
competency. In essence, cross-functional learning has become a
necessity for most employees.
Training addresses this need but can be incremental and
event-based; eLearning connects knowledge with performance. On its
own or in complement to other training, eLearning offers a true,
vast, and ongoing knowledge repository which allows employees to
access content as a course, for on-the-job reference, for quick
refresh, for performance-level mastery, or even for a credential.

Your Own Place
- Your Own Pace
Instructor-led courses continue to be offered through Training
and Development. However, technology-based delivery is increasingly
recognized as an extremely effective way to reduce costs associated
with sending employees to remote or central facilities for training.
Technology-based delivery allows employees to take courses on their
own time and at their own pace. In fact, combining technology-based
training with an instructor-led class (Blended Learning) enhances the
learning experience and reduces the time necessary for conducting
the instructor-led sessions.
