3 Typical Challenges and Their Solutions
1. Course Development
An organization needs L&D specialists and resources to develop online courses. Sometimes organizations lack the necessary knowledge to build online courses for online learning Without the right knowledge for creating course that appeals to the learners, eLearning implementation initiatives might become ineffective and fail to produce the desired outcomes.
Solution:
eLearning development can become easy if you have an in-house team with expertise and knowledge of eLearning. If you don’t have an internal team, it’s better to work with reputed external vendors who are skilled in eLearning development, have access to the right authoring tools, and have expertise creating top-notch courses for corporate training.
2. Technology
Technology is the main aspect for delivering successful eLearning. Organizations may experience difficulties hosting and efficiently delivering eLearning courses due to the lack of a technological platform, and bandwidth restrictions.
Solution:
Technological competence is also required for delivering the eLearning courses smoothly and choosing the appropriate eLearning platforms. Check with your organization if you have a sound technical infrastructure. An organization should have an LMS to host and deliver eLearning courses successfully without any difficulties.
3. Learners ‘readiness
Sometimes learners may not have the required computer skills they need and may be hesitant to use new technology. You should consider your learners’ readiness as they might not feel confident enrolling in eLearning courses due to a lack of computer skills.
Solution:
You can encourage your learners by assuring them that the courses won’t be challenging and that they’ll receive adequate support while enrolling the course till they complete it. You can also show them demo sessions or course trailers to give them an idea of how simple enrolling in the eLearning course will be and how it will be beneficial to them in corporate training.
