    How to achieve a successful eLearning implementation

    Author: Andrea Cruz, Implementation and Support Manager

    ELearning products, such as SHIFT, are well structured tools that provide the end user with an interactive form of knowledge transfer.  

    In order to assure your eLearning project's success, you must combine a powerful, collaborative authoring tool with an ideal strategy for its implementation.

    Experience and theory lead us to the same conclusion: implementing eLearning requires a series of essential activities and organizational changes which are considered "success factors" in your company's eLearning strategy.

    Planning is the starting point in the process of embracing the eLearning methodology, and it should begin by analyzing your company's business environment, which will help you decide whether or not you will need to be prepared and make changes in case there is any resistance or lack of motivation from your staff.

    There are several "key success factors" for the implementation resulting from proper planning:

      • Corporate objective training

      • Corporate culture training

      • Management or department levels in charge of user training

      • Start training with firm leaders

      • Easy training access

      • Policies and procedures

      • Training on competencies and partner personal development

      • eLearning internal marketing

      • Follow-up

      • Recognition

    Proper planning can go a long way when it comes to implementation, but remember that not all companies undergo the same situations, that's why whenever you are thinking of taking the leap towards eLearning be sure to have all your team on board advocating for organization's new training methodology and all the changes that might come with it.
