Posted by chief in Training & Development

Some one once said “pursue knowledge without prejudice.” Actually this was Scientist and genius Richard Ferynman.

How many times have elearning managers or Chief Learning Officers come across instances when the intrinsic rewards of learning and e-learning have collided with meeting business goals and objectives regarding employee or staff advancement and education. What do you in that case? How do you convince upper management that learning and continuing to pursue human capital development is a strategic and competitive advantage?

Join our discussion boards and share how experiences, best practices and tips on how to go about starting, managing and improving e-learning and  deriving ROI from these efforts.

e-Learning and the web 2.0 workplace

Posted by chief in Training & Development

I have had the privilege of engaging in discussions on e-learning and workplace e-learning programs with so many business people, owners of companies, professionals, and regular employees.

Some of the common questions I get include:

  • How do I justify the expense of training employees if they will just up and leave?

>> Answer: While I see the obvious business case for keeping overheads down and doing more with less, I think the issue of not training employees wrecks more havoc on the competitive advantage any company possesses. Imagine having to compete in a global world, where your services are pitted against those of local, regional, national and now international competitors. Well you can stop imagining. This is the current scope of the competitive landscape. In short, you need a system that automates and leverages some of the advantages of elearning and SCORM objectives. Elearning using a system such as eLeaP allows you to create content courses once and having the ability to reuse the same elearning courses over and over again. You can do this with eLeaP because you can manage users – adding and deleting users at will.

  • How do I choose the best eLearning solution?

>> Answer: Simple. Look for a system that is simple, robust, scalable and secure. You will not want to spend your valuable time trying to learn how to use an learning management system. You don’t want your staff to spend hard earned work hours stuck in system that keeps breaking down. And last but not least you need an elearning management system that will grow with your company. Need more info: check out this page on elearning system.

  • I am not sure if e-Learning is the right solution for my workplace. Are my workers ready for web-based learning and training?

>> Answer: Change can be disruptive. Change needs to be planned for and executed in phases. Yes I can understand the trepidation in certain companies or organizations. But you have to remember, they said that about the Internet .. that it was just a passing fad and will fade away. They said the same thing about using Email for communications … My point is why don’t you place your company on the cutting edge of technology. e-Learning might be new but the medium is not… That is why elearning companies that give you a chance to try their systems should be given your business. Try eLeaP free for 15 days. See how you and your staff like the learning management system. Try it with a select group of early adopters in your organization. But what ever you do, try some variant of elearning because it is here to stay .. just like the Internet or Email. Still not comfortable with eLearning, talk to Don over at the eLeaP Learning Management Systems company.

Multi-Sourcing eLearning – Inhouse or Outsource?

Posted by chief in Training & Development

Companies in today’s breakneck competitive landscape have to continually reevaluate their cost centers – seeking the almighty positive ROI. And you know training and development being a soft, sometimes unquantifiable corporate budget item, needs the justification (ironically) to continue getting funding. If the big wigs decide there will be some cost cutting, well training & development are disproportionate targeted. Would you agree? Give us your opinion at the e-Learning Place.

So giving this hard reality, does outsourcing make sense? Should every company look to outside, specialized organizations and outfits for their training needs? Where should one draw the line? Is it content outsourcing (using off-the-shelf) training courses? How about the learning management system or in the case of eLeaP – learning management platform. What should a company look for in undertaking a successful learning/training outsourcing?

  • Established track record – the company you go with should have an established track record. Of course give new companies an opportunity to prove their worth. You might be surprised at the deals you can get.
  • Supporting Cast – Is the training/learning management a complete outfit? Do they have a telephone number? How about a support and online ticketing system? Can you reach then when you need to? How about support for additional components you might need. Do they charge an arm & a leg for updates or maintenance? Beware of those contracts?
  • Security – How secure is the company’s system(s)? – Are you concerned about your trade secrets leaking out onto the Internet? Do they have a secure server or it is just password protection and that’s it?
  • Cost – It seems like an obvious but you have to look at savings? What does your traditional company trainings cost you? How much are you looking to save from using an outsourced partner? What additional cost (hidden) might exists?

So what can you outsource?

  • Content – Get ready made training content. See if you can customize?
  • Learning Management Systems (technology) – Do you want to build it in-house or use an already existing system like eLeaP. Also virtual classrooms
  • Help Center – Outsource your helpdesk or online help system.
  • Your entire training function – Balance the risks & rewards.

Closing thought – There are several companies that will give you a free trial of their systems. Use these opportunities to evaluate the potential partners.

Sincerely,

Donatus Weobong

Retail Industry listen up: Customers are fleeing due to poor customer service.

Posted by chief in Training & Development

In today’s world of “people power”, one small mishap at your retail store and customers are plastering your hard earned reputation in blogs, websites, chatrooms, forums, list servs and more. Poor customers service is costing you millions.

How do I get my people trained in customer service, product knowleage, professional disposition you ask? Well use an online training platform such as eLeaP. Its easy to create courses (chapters, lessons, quizzes, forums and other rich media features) add your users, and voila!

At the risk of oversimplifying the issue, I believe retail industry positioned to reap massive rewards from investing in training and development.
