What is e-Learning Management and Benefits?

Today, 90% of an average IT budget is used for consolidation, maintenance and operations of a company’s solution. That leaves only 10% for innovation and for the improvement of business success. Therefore, the challenge is to reduce operation costs, reduce complexity and maximize the return on investment of a company’s IT infrastructure. A big share of maintenance cost is caused by upgrades.

According to PAT Research experience, the key cost drivers for an upgrade are: IT infrastructure setup, Affordable downtime, Modification clearing, Testing and End user training.

The implementation and continuous improvement of your solution often requires end user training. And e learning helps you to reduce these training costs, and thus reduce TCO while using workplace integrated simulations. You need to base on best practices for choosing an appropriate and efficient training strategy, based on eLearning, and tailored to your individual needs. These best practices include self-service, which is powered by a tutor simulation tool. End Users are trained job specifically by a simulation of their work environment such as transactions in a tutorial. These interactive tutorials can be used in demo, exercise and test mode. In addition, they can be printed as a step-by-step guide and creation and distribution of the tutorials will power users as they can easily create these simulations.

One of the key success factors of your upgrade is, how fast you can turn your end user to be productive with the new interfaces and procedures. The acceptance of the new release depends on the fact, how prepared your end users are.

With the Best practice for Online Training you can deliver this knowledge faster (up to 30%) and more cost efficient (up to 70 %) for your end users. Depending on the computer skills, and workplace environment of your employees, you can easily combine this approach with classroom trainings or workshops. Furthermore, with this approach you can create online training and documentation in once. Your company receives optimal return on investment due to reduced training costs, increased productivity and motivation of your employees.

The first approach is to analyze your situation, then find an appropriate way of training your end users that fits your individual needs. Ideally, you can cover large parts or all of the end user (delta) training you need with e-learning.

This will help you to make your End user training more scalable and cost efficient and how you can use approach to support your current upgrade project

The implementation and the continuous improvement such as upgrade often requires training of the different parties involved such as administrators, end users, project members, etc.

e-Learning Management provides tools to organize learning materials according to projects and user roles as well as to distribute the materials efficiently. The e-Learning Management functionality is complemented to use Simulation Toolset and access the best practices on e-Learning. These best practices help you to choose an appropriate and efficient training strategy.

To support your End user Online Delta Training you need authoring users for the simulations tool and covers the users for playing back recorded Tutorials.

With the Tutor you can easily create, edit and play interactive simulations or use it as an exercise with performance feedback. Furthermore, you can export the screenshots and descriptions of your tutorial in a Word-Template, so that you can reuse the produced simulations as a step-by-step documentation. You can use the same content for different aspects of knowledge transfer: self study, documentation, online help, assessment or performance support.

You can record the relevant process in your System with the automatic recording tool. In a second step, you can edit the learning content to add additional information, hyperlinks, define logical path, etc. – all without programming

E learning management helps to store, categorize and distribute your e-learning materials to your end users.

What are the Benefits of E learning Management?

What are the Benefits of E learning Management

• Easy creation and distribution of web based Learning Materials
• Creation of role specific “learning maps”
• Workplace integrated end user training with simulations
• More efficient end user training
• Integration of end user training management into existing projects
• Re-use of already designed processes such as implementation or upgrade
• Re-use of already available user roles such as the HR Org Model
• Re-use of existing project documents
• Tutorials can be re-used to generate documentation
• Web-based access to Learning Maps
