Organizations, in every niche, are quickly closing the need, by training their human resource developers to provide real-time and concurrent learning experiences through the company intranet. Traditional training is rapidly being shelved for blending with eLearning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-importance-of-elearning-in-today-s-world\">Importance of eLearning in today\u2019s world<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is no secret that eLearning has taken the world by a storm. A storm that has boosted the morale of learners and has instructors coming back for more. With the latest in communications technology tools, educational technology leaders have developed learning solutions to match paces: the avid digital learner and consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result? Learning experiences at your fingertips (literally), instead of \u201cyour doorstep\u201d, as it was when distance education first broke into the learning scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, eLearning has given distance education a new name and a new identity. Learners now relate eLearning to their social media platform. They get instant notifications and updates and can think about an assignment days before they work on it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s self-validating world of text messages and instant statuses, learners are eager to share their knowledge and criticism with a never-seen-before honesty. In fact, learners demand platforms that proliferate their opinions across the cyber world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Informal communities of learning are being developed across world-wide servers, morphing automatically into formal communities of practice in an eLearning environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>eLearning is inevitable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>eLearning is a product of demand. It is a convenience that cannot be denied even by the technology-averse learners!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is prevalent in schools, universities, and corporations, regardless of the technology literacy of the learner. It is the most efficient vehicle to send and receive knowledge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-traditional-training-vs-elearning\">Traditional training vs eLearning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional learning is wearing off at a slow but steady pace. Each year, the introduction of devices and eLearning platforms into the education sector increases to meet the demands of the digital youth. Businesses too, recognizing the advantages of a technology proficient intern, increasingly pressurize universities to create techno-grads, who can hit the industrial ground running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, the best way to learn how to use technology is to teach with technology! eLearning in universities and schools has been replacing traditional teachers to enforce the \u201ccross-curricular technology implementation\u201d. Traditional methods in today\u2019s classrooms are more \u201cblended\u201d in true sense \u2013 they are mixed with eLearning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from satisfying the learner\u2019s convenience and learning style, eLearning has also filled the increasing cost of a traditional classroom course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learners no longer prefer limitations of space, time or pace when learning. Most adult learners enjoy the value of learning and strive to accomplish their learning goals. Maintaining one\u2019s learning and personal growth regardless of life\u2019s disruptions is synonymous with life-long learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-is-responsible\">Who is responsible?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/solutions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">corporate training<\/a>, no person can reinforce life-long learning more than the training manager. The training manager is intimately associated with the goals of the organization. This individual understands the performance gaps and how learning can fill those gaps. A training manager can be a communication relay between the organization, the instruction and eLearning developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These people have the power to influence a positive attitude towards training. Team managers can work closely with the training managers to create organization-specific training. They can also promote the training to each employee with better results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ASTD\u2019s \u201ceLearning: If we Build it, Will They Come?\u201d study (2001) reveals the direct relationship between higher training completion rates and manager support. Managers in organizations can support eLearning in more ways than one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Explaining the rationale behind completing the training<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Linking the course objectives with business objectives and future career growths<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Promoting eLearning as equal to classroom learning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enabling employees to transfer learning to their immediate work context<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Encouraging peer-peer support in training<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This eBook is geared towards organizations which want to encourage employees to receive regular updates. These updates could be standard procedures or they could be organization-specific \u201cway-to-do-things-around-here\u201d guides. Education and training update is the sure-fire way to creativity and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-should-read-this-book\">Who should read this book<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s about time to train yourself about how to train!
