ELE vs Employee Training

Extended Learning Enterprise

● Links learning to performance

● Driven by community

● Can create ‘accreditation paths’ for certification, increase competition

● Access on the go - need for mobile learning

● Can purchase content

● Elearning seen as beneficial to the user

Employee Training

● Does link to performance, but often performance tracked in a

separate system

● Driven by employees and champions, often seen as

‘extra work’

● Certification is possible, but less common

● Mobile learning is needed, but corporate firewalls often act as

a barrier

● mainly for free access to employees, no revenue model

● Elearning often seen as a something extra to complete

Increase Sales,decrease costs
