Education and Internet, the Great Equalizers
E-learning is a powerful tool to acquire knowledge and to compete in today's knowledge-based economy. E-learning is the use of technologies such as CDs and the Internet to create, enable, deliver and measure lifelong learning. E-learning eliminates barriers associated with traditional classroom training. It overcomes barriers of cost, time, distance and socioeconomic status, allowing people to take charge of their own lifelong learning.
Equal Opportunities
for Access to Education
It has been said that on-line learning will rapidly become one of the most cost-effective ways to educate the world's expanding workforce. Through e-learning, students can access instructional content inexpensively and get trained on the latest skills in demand. E-learning offers flexibility and convenience, and can quickly reach students anywhere, at any time.
E-learning: Transforming
How and When Students Learn
Educators and learning organizations are especially enthusiastic about the potential of e-learning. As the education sector moves on-line and as young people embark on the school-to-work transition, e-learning offers a unique opportunity to combine the power of technology and global networks with the infinite economic potential that is released when people acquire, create and apply knowledge and skills.
