The vast number of eLearning books available targets a specific market, that of university and high school teachers who have to retool for a new set of technologies and learners. The group that’s missing however is the vast number of organizational trainers who are constantly adapting to new learning management systems, new measurements of success, new system and business process changes and new mediums for this training.
Throughout my 17-year career in technology, business change management and organizational training has always been the most challenging part of any project and during that time, the technologies for this space haven’t really evolved like those of other customer communication platforms. In the beginning, there was email and classroom training. Then help PDFs and .chm files (help files) came into the picture.
Then knowledge bases were touted as the end-all substitute for training, and they weren’t. Then the next evolution was webinars replacing the classroom training experience. Then learning management systems came to measure training compliance, but they didn’t really solve the challenges the user faces in getting information when they need it. While these changes have certainly lowered the cost of training delivery, the industry hasn’t adapted to the changes that people now communicate which is drastically different than 5 years ago.
When you consider the transformation in communication that social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook have created, they have drastically changed the way that people consume information. People don’t consume blogs and books anymore to get information; they now consume bytes to determine if they want to learn more and expect messaging to be a couple things:
Brief
Visual
Easy
Companies have embraced eLearning but most companies are not doing it well. Some of the benefits include cost savings, time savings, convenience and availability. Companies can time-shift training allowing employees to attend when their schedule allows and allow companies to provide training to employees who might not otherwise receive it.
With that said, it’s time to delve into the new generation of eLearning to address a new generation of learners.
This book will walk through an end-to-end program to define your training strategy, define goals for the training, define your media strategy, content creation and testing, and organizational change management of building a new foundation for eLearning curriculum.
