1. It’s not engaging enough
2. It’s too expensive
3. We’ve not got the IT infrastructure to support it
These are the top three e-learning turn-offs coming to the fore as our 2015 Learning Index gathers momentum.
1. It’s not engaging enough
2. It’s too expensive
3. We’ve not got the IT infrastructure to support it
These are the top three e-learning turn-offs coming to the fore as our 2015 Learning Index gathers momentum.
Our Learning Index project is asking hundreds of L&D professionals across Europe to help us create the first definitive study for the industry in 2015. We’re just getting started and things are changing fast, but with 200 L&D professionals contributing to our study to date, some of our first, provisional findings are already raising an eyebrow. For instance:
One in four participants say they don’t use e-learning courses to deliver training now, and nearly half of this group wouldn’t even consider using e-learning in the future.
So what’s stopping over 1 in 10 L&D leaders deploying e-learning in the workplace? Turn-off number one is e-learning’s failure to create genuine and meaningful interactions. Whether it’s second rate course design or an inadequate engagement strategy, over half of the L&D professionals that shun e-learning say it just doesn’t promote powerful enough interactions across the workforce.
Next up in the top three turn-offs is the perception that commissioning e-learning courses is too expensive and that the company’s IT infrastructure isn’t rigorous enough to support effective learning online.
