THE TIME IS NOW!

Now is the time to recognize all the many advantages media-based online learning offers you, your trainees and your organization!

Yes!

We’ve come a long way down the technology trail in the past four decades.  The training challenges for our industrial workforce have been immense.  And, the trade-offs involving instructional design and production values, combined with cost and efficiency issues, have complicated the entire process.

Maintenance and Operations training for our workforce has never been more necessary.  And, the opportunities for more effective learning have never been greater. 

Media-based e-Learning has made more and better learning a reality, while increasing your trainees’ invaluable retention time.  Mechanical Maintenance, Electrical Maintenance, and Instrumentation Training are all better attuned to job and task applicability today. 

Full media-rich training delivered over the internet or available through corporate networks has, provably, contributed to the financial returns enjoyed by the wiser American corporations and its workforce.

We’re going to need these better skills, too, as processes get more complicated and multi-craft training requirements continue to evolve.  Well designed media training will help secure incomes in these challenging economic times and improve conditions for our workers and their families. 

In the process, American industry will regain its competitive edge.

Training and education can never be ignored or long delayed. 

Media-based learning, delivered instantaneously at any time to any place, has reopened the doors to productive learning. 

We are successfully transitioning from the less successful lecture-textbook instruction to the newer media-rich learning opportunities.  As Marshall McLuhan first foresaw more than a half century ago, “The Medium is the Message.”

Today, “The Medium has become the Message” and is ratcheting open bright new worlds of learning and productivity. 

Online Learning and Information will lead our way.  Our workforce will embrace it.  Management, at their peril, must not underestimate its critical importance to their corporate futures – and, to the competitive future of the United States.
