Are you considering e-learning as a means of training your staff? We'll tell you all about it!

1. What is corporate e-learning?

E-learning is legally defined as the use of new technologies and the Internet to improve the quality of learning. Corporate e-learning training involves training your employees using online training platforms. This type of training can be used in a wide variety of fields, such as linguistics, health, corporate prevention/awareness (csr, harassment, etc.), job discovery, HR, etc.

Your employees can :

  • Work at their own pace: unlimited access to training materials. Practice exercises, mock exams, revision sheets - everything is available at all times.
  • Study when they want: with distance learning, each learner is in a different context. They may be subject to external constraints beyond their control. E-learning makes it possible to adapt learning to personal convenience.
  • Study wherever you want : all you need is an Internet connection to access a multitude of media. In these times of Covid-19 regulations, this remote access is a great opportunity for your employees. What's more, it optimizes your teams' working time.

2. The winning combination: blended-learning training

An e-learning platform can be used to complement more traditional teaching with a teacher. This is known as "blended learning". This is ahybrid learning mode where the employee alternates between online and face-to-face sessions with a trainer. In this way, it is possible to benefit from the advantages of both formats. On the one hand, the autonomy, flexibility and abundance of fun resources offered by e-learning, and on the other, the human support, interactivity and follow-up provided by a trainer.

For the trainer, e-learning is a huge time-saver. The high-quality resources provided by e-learning platforms are tools that can be used to build and enrich courses, saving precious time in research and preparation. What's more, mock tests and other training exercises carried out on e-learning platforms can be used for grading and regulatory continuous assessment.

3. Why use e-learning in your company?

a. Monitoring tools

E-learning is a training tool that enables you to monitor andsupport your employees during their training. In fact, e-learning platforms generally include tools for monitoring your employees' progress. This means you can track their progress through the course, as well as the progress they have made and the results they have achieved. In this way, you can guide and support your teams as they learn.

b. Autonomy

Online training emphasizes the principle of autonomy. Employees are responsible for their own learning. They learn on their own, adapting the training to their own schedule and preferences. This freedom and independence motivates teams to become even more involved in training.

c. Accessibility

Employees can access their online training whenever it suits them. All you need is Internet access to access training whenever and wherever you want. On the move, when you get up, when you go to bed, during your lunch break, etc., your employee chooses the time when he or she feels most productive to take training without any constraints.

d. Customization

Unlike face-to-face learning, where all learners have to follow the same pace, e-learning enables each individual to create his or her own training program tailored to his or her own needs. It is thus possible to spend more time on a problematic point or less time on a skill already acquired. In this way, training is personalized to be effective and adapted to each individual. E-learning thus makes it possible to offer training tailored to the level, needs and objectives of each employee.

e. Optimization

As the content is more precise, better targeted and delivered at the right time, training time is considerably reduced, saving both time and money. What's more, e-learning eliminates the costs associated with travel, premises rental, accommodation, trainers, etc.

4. How does Pitchboy fit in perfectly with Blended-Learning or e-learning courses?

a. Setting the scene

The solution is customized and built after analyzing your terrain to match real-life situations as closely as possible. The system uses voice recognition to create and develop training situations as credibly as possible. The learner can therefore train in situations that are as close to reality as possible.

b. Remote oral training

The disadvantage with e-learning can be the lack of interaction and oral work, which is generally done to a lesser extent. Thanks to PITCHBOY, it's possible to simulate interactions and work on oral skills effectively in a digital context.

c. Optimized learning time

Access to PITCHBOY training is unlimited and on-demand. What's more, the platform includes replay access. So employees can train as much as they like, when they like. The PITCHBOY simulator's artificial intelligence will adapt the learner's questions based on previous sessions. The employee is thus autonomous and a real player in the learning process. Thanks to this targeted training, carried out at times when the employee is ready to get involved in the learning process, learning is much faster and learning time is optimized.

d. Ease of use

The simulator is available on smartphones, tablets, computers and virtual reality headsets. PITCHBOY offers a customized simulator for your company, and adjusts the solution based on your feedback. With this solution, we support you in deploying the software internally.

In conclusion, e-learning is a fantasticlearning methodthat is enhanced by innovative solutions such as the PITCHBOY simulator. Your employees can enjoy the benefits of oral interaction for their language training, while continuing to learn online.
