eLearning can be described and delivered in many different ways, but at its essence is the use of electronic technologies to provide education. The beauty of eLearning is that you can learn or teach anything, anywhere as long as you have an internet connection. Innovation in eLearning technologies is constant, meaning the availability of delivering content through things such as Virtual Reality – but we’ll talk about this later. With over 175,000 higher education students currently studying online in Australia, we know that eLearning is in higher demand than ever in the education sector. Workplaces are also beginning to understand the value of implementing eLearning in their organisations. Google has implemented its very own digital academy which allows its users to get trained in their technology, as well as gain skills in web development through an online portal. Like Google, workplaces can use eLearning to improve their processes, but understanding the benefits can be difficult due to the technical jargon used to describe them. Here is a list of just some of the benefits eLearning has for workplaces. Variety of programs and courses With the implementation of a Learning Management System (LMS), organisations can train staff in practically anything they want. The LMS allows an admin to upload learning content such as video, interactive courses and more, directly and efficiently. eLearning tools make it so quick and easy for organisations to create learning material available to all their employees, in anything they desire. For example, you could decide that your sales team needs better overall product knowledge, to sell more widgets. eLearning allows you to create a course quickly that will educate all your staff on the product, without having to involve an outside training organisation or do it face-to-face, which is time-consuming and costly. Compliance One of the most exceptional features of an LMS is the ability to track and report on user progress. If you want to know which of your employees has participated in your training on product knowledge, you can get your answer in real-time through your LMS. This tracking becomes a crucial feature when organisations need to get staff compliant on items like workplace safety and behaviour. Through eLearning, you can deliver these compliance courses to all your employees, as well as track their progress so you can guarantee they have been successfully trained and are compliant with workplace standards.Subscribe on our newsletter to receive latest news and events

I find it interesting to learn that you can now conduct training online! My friend needs a traffic management course finished before this month ends and having this done online would help him lots. I should ask him to look for online courses so he’d be able to get a certificate for his employer.
