“ In the current downturn the proportion of learning delivered as e-learning could increase from 20% to around 30% e-learning. So rather than worrying about how they will weather any downturn, the e-learning industry should be looking forward to growing revenues over the next two years.” Richard Naish

“ For the first time in the 13 years that I have been working with technology enabled learning in North America, our global learning and development group is seriously exploring its use.” David Barton of Michelin North America

“ Lower revenues and lower profits for US corporations certainly means a cut in L&D spending. However, I have strong views that e-Learning in relative terms is likely to benefit from recessionary conditions as it is a proven cost friendly alternative to a traditional classroom. ... In my view the share of e-Learning hours will increase to over 40-50% from current 30%” Ankit Jain, G Cube

“ If training departments do not adapt to ‘smarter’ approaches and increased focus on working to improve business performance, they will be marginalised and downsized.” Charles Jennings, Reuters
