The advantages of web-based training is that the learner accesses the training program directly from their desktop; from a dedicated learning station, or a laptop PC - whichever is most convenient. The information is delivered, via a browser, either on the Internet, or a corporate Intranet.
The benefit to the company, or learning / training provider, is that it can distribute learning material in a controlled and cost-effective basis. Different types of media can be incorporated into the programs to increase impact and effectiveness. Web-based tutorials, being centrally served, can be easily updated and incorporate dynamic content.
Hybrid (Mixed) Learning / Training Solutions (On-line and Off-line)
AVDP can bring together the best attributes of web-based, CD-ROM, DVD and CBT applications to form a Hybrid mixed solution package. This combines high impact media with the ease and ability to update.
E-learning can be "on demand" and overcomes timing, attendance and travel difficulties, particularly when used offshore, on ships and other remote locations where the attendance of trainees at a central training centre creates additional costs, such as cost of transport, hotels, and need to cover for the trainee when absent from the workplace.
Internet-based e-learning technology enables companies to track and monitor who has completed the training, when and how they have performed. This is a major benefit for organisations that have struggled to keep track of fragmented training activities.
Some of the benefits of e-learning / training:
Improved performance: productivity improvements through learning on demand
Flexibility and convenience:
Potential cost-savings: The geographic distribution of learning is limited only by the ability to access the Internet or Intranet. Measurable: centralised tracking and monitoring of learning / training activity
Personalised: delivery of targeted learning to meet individual company’s requirements.
