Is it time to train employees, but you don't have the time or the expertise to do it yourself? No worries. The growing number of online training services and software makes it easy for small-business owners to provide employees with flexible training time—and to save money at the same time. From virtual classes to videos, these online training tools are becoming more available and cost-effective, according to a recent article on Wall Street Journal online.
The story offers several successful examples—from a small Midwestern seed company that uses online videos to train thousands of its independent crop-seed dealers to a cemetery-mapping business owner who took free, online software classes to take his paper-based business virtual. In small businesses particularly, e-learning has become the second most popular approach to training for small businesses, the article states.
