THE DNA OF ELEARNING

Prof. Dr. Johan Kohen

Corporate eLearning is a powerful technology, but it has strayed from its
inspired beginnings. Poised to become a driver of business performance,
eLearning lost its way as vendors reached for quick economic gains at the
expense of long-term strategic position.
eLearning devolved into quick-to-sell IT-only content libraries, bland Web
course designs, and unfocused, minimally tailored portal solutions. This was a
boon to the training department, but not the business as a whole, and the
value of hassle-free turnkey campuses and trainer-empowering LMSs became
the low-hanging fruit in the marketplace.
This article looks at the genesis, quality, and current attitude toward
eLearning.
