Online Learning’s Day Has Come!
We are perplexed when people talk with us about how they think online learning or e-learning is dramatically inferior to in-person training. “It will never be widely adopted,” they scoff!
In many cases, e-learning has become commoditized and quality does tend to suffer. But we have seen a dramatic shift in technology that allows for the development of high-quality online training. So, when will online learning be categorized as anything other than sub-par?
- When Fortune 500 companies embrace it? [click for proof]
- When live online instruction can be as engaging as that done live in-person? [click for proof]
- When learners choose it over other training methods? [click for proof]
- When the most powerful universities embrace it? [click for proof]
We believe the tide has turned and that online learning is quickly becoming recognized as more powerful, more engaging and more accepted than face-to-face instruction.
