Workplace E-Learning: What, Where, Why and How: A Case Study from the Czech Republic

Original language description

Developments at work and in the workplace are constant activities, and an organisation’s activity in elearning belongs in this process too. This means that workplace e-learning represents a significant burden for an organisation. A qualitative case study from the Czech Republic was done on the basis of interviews with two groups: content administrators (two respondents) and learners (six respondents), who are familiar with e-learning. Analysis reveals various factors and trends that the organisation must consider when implementing e-learning. On the basis of the data obtained, it is clear that e-learning increases flexibility, more precisely in terms of costs, time and individual approaches. Participants concentrate on learning and do not focus on the content; the main goal remains passing the e-course. However, the quality of the system and the ease of using it varied, as did the interactivity of the e-courses. The main advantages are flexibility and productivity, and the main disadvantages are a lack of mutual contact and human interaction. Future trends will be the increase of e-learning, pre-work onboarding, the cloud and m-learning. When implementing e-learning, an organisation must consider the pros and cons and pre-tests/evaluations, and it must simplify the resolution process of any issue, be prepared to provide face-to-face education and make choices regarding the time aspect and learning material. The current qualitative case study in e-learning and prevailing trends form the foundation of the future direction and development of this field for educational and training purposes. The findings indicate that there will be a steady, but notable, increase in workplace elearning to enhance all training methods at work. The study contributes to our understanding of workplace e-learning.
