Throughout 2010 we intend to develop Prevue online training modules to help users learn about our products when it’s convenient for them.  We welcome your feed back as the modules are released and in the meantime we would like to share with you what we discovered about the field of e-Learning.

There is a vast body of literature that confirms e-learning has not only seen a phenomenal growth in the past few years, but will continue to transform training and development for today’s profit and non-profit organizations in all sectors.  It isn’t just the promise of impressive technology that is driving people to e-learning.  Rather, organizations have urgent needs to convey rapidly changing information to large numbers of widely dispersed individuals faster, better and more cost effectively than ever before.

What is e-Learning?

E-learning is an innovative approach to distance education in which computer based training (CBT) is transformed by the technologies and methodologies of the World Wide Web, the Internet, and Intranets.  E-Learning presents live content, which can be modified at will, in a structure allowing the self-directed, self-paced instruction in any topic.

What is driving e-Learning?

Learning is a continual process which can take place anywhere and anytime and does not necessarily take place in a scheduled event.  There is a demand for just-in-time training that can be used to train globally distributed workforces.  There is also a growing population of Generation Nexters who are independent, mobile, multi-taskers who engage in self-learning using mediums such as Google and You Tube or other programs of edu-tainment.

Internet is becoming a standard at work and at home.  There is a growing selection of e-learning products and services available to develop media-rich content that can be delivered off better delivery platforms than were previously available.

The article “Building a Case for eLearning” by geo Learning (http://www.e-learningguru.com/wpapers/building_case.pdf ), highlights the key benefits of e-learning:

• The convenience of availability
• Just-in-time training opportunities and accessibility to refresher training
• Cost savings

• Built in student enrollment and course management through the use of Learning Management Systems (LMS).
