On The Horizon: eLearning Trends You Need To Implement - Interactive Services

There’s no doubt that e-learning is a game changer in compliance training. Instead of bringing in a trainer quarterly for classes, companies can now train employees in compliance in any time and place. E-Learning is easy to implement, flexible, and affordable.

Recently, expert educational consultants described some of the current trends coming into e-learning online education. Keep your e-learning impactful by considering these trends on the horizon:

1. Making your course mobile friendly. Mobile technology continues to improve, and an increasing number of people worldwide use their smart phones to go shopping, access social media, and watch movies. Particularly if your company issues smart phones to employees, making your e-learning course accessible and attractive on phone screen’s will encourage your employees to access and take the course.

2. Use technology to adapt e-learning to each employee. New technology uses smart data to access information about employees’ learning process, such as what they spend the most time viewing in the course. This kind of information will help your company understand each employees’ learning style, interests, and where they needs more assistance, helping personalize compliance e-learning to each employee.

3. Creating micro-learning courses. The days of a long compliance training are most likely over. Research shows that people remember information when they review it in short blocks of no more than 10 minutes. Make each section of the course short and digestible, and encourage employees to take quick breaks between each segment.
