ITPEC IP April 2024 Question 95
Training on how to use a sales forecast system is planned for the persons in charge of business across the country. Which of the following is a merit that is obtained by using e-learning in training?
Explanation
Each person trains at a suitable time using his or her own free time — the merit of e-learning for staff spread across the country.
E-learning delivers course material over a network to a PC or smartphone. Learners take it wherever they are and whenever they have time, at their own pace, and can repeat a lesson; nobody has to travel or be released from work at the same hour. For persons in charge of business all over the country that flexibility is the gain.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- •(a) — being lectured directly by the designer and asking questions on the spot is the merit of face-to-face, instructor-led training
- •(c) — participating together and exchanging opinions is the merit of group training or workshops
- •(d) — gathering everyone in a room and training them simultaneously is classroom training, the very constraint e-learning removes
Key rule: E-learning trades live interaction for independence of place and time; merits that need people together belong to classroom training.
