(PRWEB) November 27, 2003 --Research and Markets announces the addition of this new report entitles "Corporate e-learning - Delivering business benefits" to its offerings.

This new research report investigates the practical problems and solutions that have emerged as senior managers embarked on e-learning programmes as well as the key imperatives which companies need to address to ensure e-learning delivers business benefits. The trends impacting the future shape of e-learning in 2005 and beyond and the issues organisations need to consider in preparation are also explored.

Practical examples are provided through the report's 5 Case studies, which provide interesting insights into how leading companies are tackling some of the issues raised in the report. The common theme running through each case is the strength of commitment from senior executives to the development of human capital and particularly through e-learning. Also, these companies demonstrate that technology is purely an enabler and good practice design is based on its appropriate use. Cost-effective solutions are possible without heavy investment in elaborate presentation. E-learning in its narrowest form, based on the conversion of computer-based training, has been found to have limited application, but ICT is recognised as having considerable potential for transforming T&D. The more advanced cases offer a mix of learning modes including computer-mediated communications for peer-to-peer interaction and face-to-face events.

Companies profiled in these case studies include the Dixons Stores Group, whose solution is designed to empower line managers by giving them tools to train their own staff and also IBM who chose pedagogic re-engineering and integrated learning to provide advanced management training and to support new ways of working.
