Jess’ E-Learning Blog

If e-learning is to be successful, then it must be supported and advocated within the organisation. Suemin mentions that senior management must be involved in the process of implementing e-learning in order for it to be successful in the context of change management. She also mentions that alignment with not only the macro culture but also sub-cultures within the organisation is essential to avoid a lack of collaboration or cooperation.

These are both of value to organisations when using e-learning, not only during times of change but also in the ongoing support of e-learning. Directly garnering support of e-learning from the top of the organisation and facilitating it at the bottom levels through cultural alignment is effective in that it is a two-pronged attack and therefore affects a wider variety of people in the organisation. Support for e-learning needs to be maintained so that it can continue to be used.
