Hi there,

I know this thread is abit old, but I thought it might be worth to put in my 2 cents worth.

There are e-learning facilities readily available, I have used it in some of my training. I beg to differ from the previous posts because I find them really handy.

Learners can do training at their own time and pace. There are certain question and answer sections where the learners will be tested, and need to achieve a certain passing mark before they can proceed to the next section. The learners can also watch videos and hear commentary not just slides. Everything the learner does is also tracked and recorded within the system, allowing the supervisors to monitor their progress (also to know if they are cheating).

However, e-learning only extends to certain situations. If you are referring to OSHA induction training. I would highly recommend e-learning. For other more specific training, face-to-face is still the way to go.

Aside from all the above, bear in mind that setup costs are quite high. You'll need to have licences for each learner and a server to park all that data.
