E-Learning

The 21st century is characterised by the need for permanent learning. Nobody these days can

realistically expect to learn a job in their late teens or early twenties and do the same job until

retirement. Further training is vital if all of us are to meet the challenge of this on-going learning

process. But how can we provide effective and efficient further training for staff all over Europe.

E-learning, we believe, is the answer. This further training concept has been specially designed to

meet the need for relevant, up-to-date content provided by the most efficient means in the most

cost-effective manner. But what is E-Learning? You probably have heard of terms as Distance

Learning, Computer Based Training (CBT), Online Learning and many others. We now supply E-

Learning. E-Learning is the self study system for all training through the web using interactive

training materials.

The characteristics of E-Learning are:

• Using Internet as distribution channel, which

extend your study with an access to 24

hours, 7 days a week

• The student determines his or her study

path, tempo, study environment and study

method.

• It is being supported by a network where

experiences can be shared

• Online administration: Process of personal

data, payments and track & trace of the

participants

For a lot of organizations it is important that the employees have the accurate knowledge and

skills. Fast adaptability to new markets is essential for success.

This radical departure from traditional training methods brings several significant advantages:

The content can be customised to the needs of each participant according to the “just enough-

principle”. What’s more, each participant enjoys, on top, the advantages of self-timed, self-paced

learning. ‘Learning on demand’ as it were.

One of the biggest advantages of e-learning is the speed with which the content can be revised,

updated and extended centrally to meet new technical and market requirements in the local field

organizations.

The content reaches a much wider audience, much more quickly than was ever possible via

traditional seminars or workshops.

E-learning reduces training and travel costs by switching the focus to home learning
