New Schooling Supplement: e-Learning
Companies need to master the challenges of e-business transformation and globalization—and PwC Consulting’s range of services and expertise in B2E portals and e-learning offer a crucial advantage.
B2E solutions provide the platform for moving a single business function—or all of an organization’s work—onto the Internet. “B2E is a workplace portal that consolidates the tasks that employees need to do their jobs,” says Korinne Collins, director of the learning solutions group for PwC Consulting in Canada. The B2E approach is comprehensive: business to employee, business to enterprise, business to everything.
E-learning, which uses technology to develop, deliver access and manage training, can be integrated within a B2E portal. The drivers behind the urgent demand for e-learning
applications include competition for skilled employees and a continuing demand for “re-skilling” as they adapt to new technologies and processes.
For example, an accountant may need to access a financial report, yet doesn’t remember how to extract the relevant data. With an e-learning solution, she could learn how to run the report online, and enhance her knowledge with a Web-based training course. “It personalizes learning for the employee,” says Collins.
With the Internet as its delivery mechanism,e-learning also helps companies reduce costs, heighten efficiencies and save time. In addition, it fosters innovation and leads to
greater employee satisfaction.
PwC Consulting guides its clients through the process with a step-by-step e-learning roadmap to determine their requirements—and the best solution. The result can be invaluable. As Collins says, “Many companies understand that e-learning provides a competitive advantage.”
