Why e-Learning | 2009-01-01 | |
| With the proliferation of Internet and Intranet, learning through the net gets a new name "e-Learning" in conformity with e-Commerce and e-Business. Training requirements in the Software Development segments arise mainly from three sources viz. customer requirements out of a new project, from the organizations future plan and business expansions and also from individual worker himself who would like to improve his skill. Whatever may be the source of this requirement, every corporate sector is now giving lot of importance to improve employees skills and allocate a good percentage of training funds.
