Benefits of E-Learning

In almost every position at every workplace, some form of training is necessary. It is important for employees to be knowledgeable about not only their specific job duties but the company/organization they are working for as well. Many governing organizations even set specific training requirements, so courses have to be tailored to comply. The more training someone has completed, the more experienced they will be, and therefore the better they will be at their job. Proper training ensures an efficient and effective workforce.

There are a variety of methods that can be implemented throughout the training process. The traditional method is “classroom training,” where the instructor and students meet face to face in a physical room. This method requires a designated meeting date, time, and location for everyone to be present. This date and time have to be scheduled in advance and employees often have to interrupt their work to partake. While training is necessary, it is often inconvenient for people to stop what they are working on to participate.

Another drawback of in-class training is that there is not always an internal instructor, so companies have to outsource a trainer. This may include not only the cost of paying the instructor but their traveling and accommodation expenses as well. These expenses can really add up if your business requires a trainer to visit frequently. There is also the cost of supplies: materials such as textbooks, printed worksheets, booklets, and tests. Every sheet of paper and every bit of ink is an expense. Once students fill out the necessary worksheets and tests, these files have to be stored and kept as records. Then there is the issue of storing, organizing, and keeping all of the files. However, file cabinets are becoming a thing of the past, due to the recent increase in the use of technology.

Computers have opened up a whole new realm for the training world. Learners can now access training materials solely online at their own convenience. This means that employees can choose when and where they want to complete their necessary training, instead of taking time away from their daily responsibilities. While classroom training can still be beneficial in certain circumstances, companies are beginning to see a multitude of benefits from online training. With online learning, or “E-Learning,” there is no need to hire a trainer. Courses can be accessed and completed entirely online.
