Live learning events require that those who participate align their schedules to the training calendar. eLearning eliminates this because the course can be accessed anytime, anywhere.
Let’s face it, real learning requires some failure. But no one likes to fail in a classroom full of other people. eLearning lets you fail without fear. This encourages exploration and testing of ideas.
The combination of multimedia and instructional design produce a very rich learning experience that is repeatable. Good practice activities help learners retain the course content which will produce results.
Learners want control. eLearning allows you to offer control to the learners in a way that classroom learning doesn’t.
