Justify e-Learning in Three Phases

Excerpt Gartner e-Learning Research:

“E-Learning requires sustained investment over many years; however, the justification for this spending will change with time.  To retain the support of management, use a three phase approach to explain the benefits e-Learning will provide.”

E-Learning benefits will change over time:

“At first e-Learning lowers costs and makes training more accessible.”

“After the initial cost savings and increased access to training, e-Learning will justify itself primarily through enabling the company to achieve its training goals more effectively by making workers more productive.”

“Later, e-Learning will become integrated with business systems and processes, and the returns on e-Learning investments will result from the achievement of business goals”
