Benefits of e-learning

People learn and absorb information in different ways and at different speeds: our approach allows for this so that organisations and learners can tailor the training to their own specific circumstances. Furthermore, when coupled with instructor-led training, it can bring additional dimensions and enhance the learning process overall. More and more learners and organisations are choosing online learning.

Here are just some of the reasons why you should choose e-learning or blended learning as an option:

Save money - e-learning training courses are extremely cost-efficient

• with classroom / instructor costs continuing to increase, plus travel / refreshment / staff cover all required, e-learning makes obvious sense at a fraction of the cost.

Flexibility - learning can be done at a time, place and pace that suits you

• Downtime at work, organised 'learning periods', working at home - there are many possibilities - our courses are available 24 / 7. Learners are not pressured to 'keep up' or conversely feel that they are waiting for the 'stragglers': they can dictate the pace. And they can do the training course all over again if they wish - at no extra cost! Read more about this below.

Evidence - downloadable certificates provide evidence of learning and assessment success

• embrace-learning certificates can be downloaded to verify both course completion and passing the assessment.

Up-to-date - training course materials are detailed, accurate and relevant

• Our training courses are always up-to-date: as legislation changes so do the relevant references within the training course. You need take no action as the amendments are applied automatically.

Learner tracking

Employers can track learning (learner progress, log in / out times, assessment results etc) and run reports on all aspects of training. Learner feedback is also available.

Flexibility

Our online training courses can be delivered in a variety of ways to cater for different learning situations - for example:

• classroom style, e.g. with projection screen
• individual learner at their desk
• individual learner at home (particularly suitable for those working in the field or otherwise away from base)
• workshop / small group working (great for more intense discussion of the issues)
• even on the bus to work, using our new mobile learning (m-learning) courses

Other formats can be deployed according to your particular circumstances.

This flexibility means that e-learning is increasingly seen as one of the most powerful tools in any training strategy - especially where a large dispersed workforce is involved. A good e-learning training course is easy to use, is stimulating and engaging and has an element of fun. It changes thinking and behaviour, provides better-qualified staff and makes a significant difference in helping to promote good practice.
