Survival tactics


What are the options for the classroom trainer in an online world? Well you could try good old-fashioned competition. Rubbish the benefits of e-learning and exploit the virtues of the classroom. Make sure that you deliver the best classroom training, training that makes optimum use of face-to-face tuition and group interaction. Lectures and lengthy presentations are out. Challenge the group. Help them explore the technology and their own potential. Get them to work together to solve problems and provide each other with support and encouragement. Concentrate on the practical. Most of us (some programmers that I know excepted) are social animals and will be happy to participate in the occasional group learning activity, even if we’re also e-learners. In the same way, e-commerce won’t stop us enjoying our favourite outdoor leisure activity - shopping.

But if you can’t beat them and you haven’t the funds to consider early retirement, then you could consider joining them. If you’re thinking of tackling the giant publishers head on then you’ve probably got so much money that you wouldn’t be reading this book at all – you’d have someone to do that sort of thing. For the rest of us, there are three realistic choices: (1) see where you can add value to e-learning materials already out there; (2) look to create something genuinely unique; (3) search for untapped markets.
