How important is e-Learning for your organisation? 4 statistical data

Today, companies are increasingly eager to offer industry-focused training opportunities, and employees use these learning opportunities also to assess the pros and cons of job offerings.
Here are statistics that prove the effectiveness of e-Learning in the company.

1. Microlearning increases the effectiveness of training by 17%

The professionals are in favor of microlearning training: it is a fast and concentrated training. 94% of students prefer microlearning mainly because it better follows the needs of their work.
A report from Software Advice shows that microlearning creates 50% more involvement. Furthermore, contents of microlearning are compact enough not to overload the student's mind.

Microlearning does not take too long and divides learning into short, "digestible" blocks. In other words, students are less likely to be distracted before completing the lesson.

By 2020, Millennials will constitute 50% of the workforce. 66% of them expect to stay in their current jobs for less than five years.
