Cost-effectiveness


Increase learning effectiveness significantly while reducing time and costs.

 

Examples

Formerly, your staff needed to travel to the home office for a week to receive training. With
e-learning deliverable at any time and any place, staff can now stay up-to-date by spending a couple hours at a time online.

Formerly, you had to redevelop the same material three times to work with the three different systems in use at your company. With SCORM-compliant materials and learning management systems, the same content will work across the enterprise.

Online learning can be self-paced and adapt to learner needs, offering learners a more effective, customized learning experience. Training time may also be reduced.

Standards-based learning materials will have longer useful lifetimes, freeing up development resources to do more than before, and saving the cost of continuous re-development.

SCORM and Cost-effectiveness

The SCORM fosters increased cost-effectiveness by both controlling costs and enhancing effectiveness.

Interoperability, reusability, and durability help to control costs, enabling more to be done with a given level of resources.

Any time/anywhere delivery, tailored instruction, and the ability to make better use of instructor contact time are aspects of the promise of the SCORM that will help to increase the effectiveness of online training and education.
