Elearning has had a great influence on the education system. Elearning started in mid-1980's by a number of institutes in the United States. Some of these institutions are: Western Behavioral Sciences Institute, New Jersey Institute of Technology, New York Institute of Technology and Connected Education. Recently, an organization called Independent Student Media was established in order to organize Elearning institutes. By 2003, millions of students were enrolled in Elearning institutes for higher education and a huge population of it came from United Kingdom, New Zealand and Australia. It is estimated that Elearning student population increases at a significant rate of 25% every year.
But really, what is Elearning? Elearning is a term that is used to refer to computer-based learning. Elearning uses web-based training and teaching materials, CD-ROMs, learning management software, discussion boards, e-mail, computer-aided assessment, simulation, online conferencing and other related methods.
With the advancement of technology, Elearning not only provides training for students but it can also be a great help for a business organization as well. It is now used by companies to provide employee training, information dissemination, and performance evaluation. Elearning can help a company maximize its resources for employee training and development. It can also give assistance in reaching company's goals and objectives.
There are many Elearning companies that can cater to all these needs. They are responsible for human resource development, planning of strategies, leadership and training. Elearning companies offer a variety of services such as building and designing training courses, offering web-based programs for learning, online learning and content management. But a reminder: before hiring an elearning company, it is better to check the company's background and credibility.
Technology has brought a great impact in helping companies save time and money. Now they can train their employees even though they are far away. This is a major breakthrough in the world of technology.
