Learning Time Reduced Through eLearning

Learning time can be reduced by 40-60% on average when using eLearning compared with the traditional classroom technique, according to a new study from Brandon Hall Research.

Additionally, retention of the information learnt is higher as found in an independent study by J.D. Fletcher in his Multimedia Review, which showed retention averages increased by 25% over traditional methods when eLearning was used.

This fits in with research carried out on methods of training by U.S Department of Education who found on average, students in online learning conditions performed better than those receiving face-to-face instruction. 

eLearning platforms, which incorporate these two aspects of learning, are at the forefront of training methods, merging both in a systematic and user-friendly way. 

For businesses one of the benefits are that employees are not just sat in front of a computer and told to read reams of information – instead, it is possible for a person or representative image to appear on the screen to run them through individual learning modules, followed by a mixture of tests, quizzes and extra reading.

The demand for eLearning services for teaching areas such as online sales and product knowledge has grown significantly, as the business world looks for affordable ways to meet training demands. 

eLearning is an extremely effective way of providing targeted, powerful training in the most cost efficient way.
