| A new report from the Yankee Group, "Electronically Educating the Enterprise," explains that despite the progress of e-learning providers and the need for companies to have efficient tools to train employees, most industry stakeholders feel the e-learning market is still very much in its infancy. Furthermore, the industry is severely fragmented, with many companies scattered across the content, technology, and service provision verticals.
According to the Yankee Group's Canadian Market Strategies senior analyst, Jeremy Depow, "Given these realities and the ever-persistent anticipation for a blooming e-learning industry, it is important to grasp what demand factors are contributing to these expectations and what is holding back our electronic erudition."
E-learning was one of the first concepts that emerged out of the Internet's seemingly limitless ability to take traditional, inefficient communication processes and enhance their potential while decreasing their cost. The beginning of a technological revolution concomitantly fueled the expectation for a burgeoning e-learning market where skills would have to be continuously updated in order to keep employees abreast of the latest technologies. The reality is that companies must consistently train employees in order to improve their own competitiveness as well as to attract talent into the firm.
The Report analyzes the state of enterprise e-learning in Canada and why there is plenty of market potential for industry stakeholders.
