Reducing barriers to learning

By reducing the barriers to learning we are closing the gap between individuals and training, these barriers to learning are not always time and money: we must consider other factors such as access to learning material, terminals and whether the course fits the purpose. 

There is no point in having great interactive e-learning in place if the terminals where training takes place do not have sufficient hardware, bandwidth or even soundcards.

As a manager, having the ability to report effectively and support your learners is also important. 

The easier it is for users to log on and access learning the more likely they are to do it again. Having standard logon details that can be easily remembered resolving any problems quickly will help create a positive experience, thus increasing a learners desire to do it again and again.
