eLearning: The main advantages of online education
What are the main advantages of eLearning?
eLearning provides increased flexibility and convenience
Reduced training costs
Greater scalability and reach
Greater ability to track and measure learning progress
Improved collaboration and communication
Increased flexibility and convenience
eLearning allows learners to have access training materials and programs at their own convenience and from any location with an internet connection.
This increased flexibility allows for better scheduling and co-ordination of training, reducing the need for employees to take time off work or travel to attend in-person training sessions.
Reduced training costs
Traditional in-person training often requires costly expenses for materials, facilities, and transportation.
With eLearning, these costs are greatly reduced or eliminated. eLearning platforms and materials are often less expensive to produce and distribute than traditional training materials.

Greater scalability and reach with eLearning
With eLearning, training materials and programs can be accessed by an unlimited number of employees regardless of their location or availability. This is particularly beneficial for companies with a large and dispersed workforce. Online training allows the content to be scalable to any number of learners.
Track and measure progress of eLearning
There are several ways to track and measure the progress of e-learning compared to delivering in-person training:
- Quizzes and assessments
- Progress tracking: Use a learning management system (LMS) to track the learner’s progress through the course, including which modules have been completed and their scores on quizzes and assessments.
- Surveys and evaluations
- Analytics: Use analytics tools to track how learners engage with the course, such as the amount of time spent on each module, the number of times they access the course, and their drop-off rate.
- Certification: Provide a certificate of completion for the course as a tangible way to recognize and reward the learner for their progress.

Improved collaboration and communication
eLearning can help to improve collaboration and communication between learners on the same course. A Learning Experience Platform allows learners to engage in online discussions, group projects, and virtual meetings.
This provides more flexibility and convenience for learners on the course, with everything being readily available in one place, at any time.
Our LXP allows learners to communicate via social groups to share good practice, ask questions on course topics and develop their knowledge further. Find out more here.
eCoach LXPs give users access to a wide range of learning resources, such as videos, articles, and interactive activities. We utilise a range of resources like those to build a unique learning plan, which can be tailored to your organisation.
Our LXP software aims to give users a more interesting and interactive learning experience than more conventional online learning platforms.
