The document outlines the concept of e-learning, emphasizing its distinction from traditional training, its various benefits, and integration with classroom education. It discusses essential design steps, features, cost efficiency, and the adaptation of training methods to incorporate e-learning technologies. Major challenges and requirements for successful implementation are also highlighted, along with the importance of aligning e-learning systems with corporate strategy and culture.

1. What is e-learningSome answers and a lot of questions

6. E-learning features are: inmediacy, universality and continuitye-learning leverages Internet advantages, allowing updating, storing, recovering, distributing and sharing of information and trainingCan reach a wide target as is using standard Internet technologyLearning is not over when training is finished, but performance assistance tools can be providede-learning | Presentation6

8. Deployment of an e-learning system is justified by the business value contributionTraining qualityimprovementBusiness valueAccesibility and convenienceincreaseCostssavingChangeadaptabilityimprovementJuly 2007e-learning | Presentation8

9. Costs can be decreased due to greater efficiency and mostly by shorter opportunity costsE-learning is more efficientTraining time for equivalente program used to be between 25% and 60% shorterThere is no need of introduction, pauses, lunch time, etc.A suitable design allows the student to skip known chapters and doesn’t have to go the slower student speede-learning used to have a more rigorous design process, due to the fact that is not so teacher supportedThere is no need to travelMost savings are due to the working hours not lost. Savings are direct to students department or company.e-learning | Presentation9
