In recent years, digital platforms have become part of the training offer of several large companies and suppliers. The rise of technology in the universe of vocational training can no longer be ignored. Today, more industries are using it and, according to a study from AFINET (2015), more than 10% of companies have already implemented technology in their human resources strategy.
The Advantages of E-Learning
Mobility and digital which are integrated in various areas provide serious advantages such as flexibility and interactivity. E-learning does not require the presence of a trainer anymore and learners are much more autonomous in their learning. Indeed, workers can now perform training anywhere and at any time they need. Allowing them to stop a session and continue it again later. Learners simply need access to a computer and an internet connection. This approach would also be a source of better outcomes for participants as they have the opportunity to acquire knowledge at their own pace.
The Traceability of E-Learning
Another significant advantage of online training is the data traceability. Indeed, it is possible to get useful training statistics., The learner has the opportunity to give real-time feedback on the content of the training course. E-learning offers a lot of possibilities as you can integrate interactive presentations to your content along with videos and online tests. The more interactive the content is, the deeper is the engagement of workers and, in the end, creates a better learning experience.
How to use it?
It is necessary to take into account all employees’ needs in order to offer training that meets their expectations. Despite the benefits that e-learning can bring, some disadvantages may arise. Indeed, considering learners are left to themselves, they must be rigorous and disciplined which can be more difficult for some people. The isolation can be seen as a disadvantage as well since there is no trainer to ensure the worker’s understanding. Managers must closely monitor their team members’ training achievements. This is where a learning, skills and certifications management software, such as Synapse, gets to be very useful.
Why a management software?
In this case, a management software will allow you to spread the training across your workforce via a modern and easy to access platform. In addition, you can collect all the data necessary to come out with insightful statistics which will help improving your content. Making it possible for your team of managers to get the results of learners in real-time while maintaining a close monitoring. A learning management software becomes a vital asset to the dissemination of e-learning courses.
