Web-Based Training
Web-Based Training
Web-based training (WBT) refers to training that can be delivered anytime in any part
of the globe to someone with Internet access. This has grown into something with immense
possibilities, and comprises a world of skill improvement, enhancement of learning and
understanding, and changing attitudes and behaviors in a period of time.
WBT offers training in three distinct modes: synchronously or in real time,
asynchronously or not in real time or a combination of both. Besides these, there are many
technologies and combinations of technologies that can also serve to deliver WBT courses.
Benefits of WBT: There are several benefits of WBT such as:
Convenience: With a WBT course, a learner can take the training anywhere at
any time, provided he has Internet access. A learner can also learn at his own pace and
convenience of time within a training timeframe. With this learning mode, individuals can also
get in touch with colleagues and experts from different world geographic locations.
Learning while earning: This learning mode also allows for learners to take a
course while holding on to their full time jobs.
Learner-centred approach to learning: Learners must think, solve problems,
respond and use logic to tackle the course on this learning mode. They feel in greater control
and assume more responsibility. This learner-centred approach is more productive than logging in
a certain number of hours while training.
Access to new technologies: Training can be done on several computer platforms
such as Windows, Macintosh and UNIX and can be accessed by using Netscape Navigator, Internet
Explorer, Lynx, America Online, etc. Learners usually find this very challenging.
Refresher training class: Learners can use this platform to take part in
refresher training classes which is an asset to him and to the instructor. The latter can send
his instructors to other classes while the learner takes his class online at his own convenience
and pace.
Cost: WBT courses are cheaper if done online as they completely eliminate the
cost of travelling and other related costs. It is also more economical since it can be
distributed worldwide and so is not limited to a room size. Besides, WBT can be updated easily
updated and "recycled" with additional training material at an extra fee.
Other benefits of WBT are:
WBT reinforces key messages with animation, tests and lab exercises.
It provides the same quality of training to students all over the world and across an
organization, thereby promising standardized training.
