The Impact of New Learning Technologies in Industry

Abstract

Looks at some of the pros and cons of technology‐based training (TBT). TBT can make a training experience both realistic and stimulating for the learner and, because of the reduction in travelling and subsistence overheads, cost‐effective for the employer. Illustrates some of the current issues in the development of TBT in industry. Considers why many employers have been slow to take it up.
