Nowadays, more and more companies are considering the use of online training facilities as a means to be able to provide training for additional skills of their employees. This is mainly due to the numerous benefits that online training facilities provide which cannot be achieved through the use of traditional training methods.One such benefit is that the overall production and performance of a particular department is not compromised by the use of online training courses. Because the course may be accessed through a secure website which can set up by the IT department for this purpose, the employee has the option to take it either during their lunch break, day off or even right in the cofort of their own home. The same holds true in the event that the company decides to enlist the employees belonging to a particular department to certain training courses provided by a third-party.While this may be the case, one begs the question on just how effective online training is when it comes to equipping employees with the additional skills and knowledge they need. Actually, the manner on how employees may be assessed after an online training course is just very much the same way as how they may be assessed by a facilitator at the end of a traditional training course.Some companies that have utilized online training as a means to equip their employees incorporate an evaluation examination after each module. To ensure that the assessment would be accurate, the website is created in such a manner that the employee does not have any access to the training modules and handouts. A time limit should be also incorporated to simulate the time constraint that is usually provided in traditional training sessions.At the completion of the evaluation test, the website can be programmed so that the results are then emailed to the HR Department who will be able to evaluate and assess performance of the employee. If, based on the results of the examination, it is assessed that the employee requires additional training, this information could then be forwarded to the immediate supervisor of the employee. If the company has availed the services of a third-party online training facility, certain arrangements can easily be made in order to ensure accurate assessment of each of the employees taking the online course. On top of this, evaluations may also be done to determine on which employees have actually taken the online training course and evaluation exam.
