Novartis use Echelon's services to offer electronic learning in support of their core training courses. This has the potential to radically reduce the costs of training through a reduction in classroom time for each course.
Employees access the learning prior to attending their training course to ensure their knowledge on the subject is at a certain level. This ensures the facilitator needs to spend less time on 'talk and chalk' allowing maximum time for developing and practicing skills. Employees are referred to the electronic resource at the end of the training as part of ongoing self-development or as a reminder of the course's learning.
Each module is supported by a preview of the content and an interactive validation, written in HTML, of the learning, which is stored and logged by the individual and the company. Access is via Novartis' intranet to a discrete part of Echelon's server.
We have put together a demonstration of the Novartis site. This will walk you through the layout of the actual site from a users point of view.
