Thanks to the internet, thousands of entrepreneurial businesses and individuals are discovering new niches and opportunities to profit from in areas like providing e-training courses and e-learning.
Electronic learning, or “e-learning,” is is the digital equivalent of distance learning, where learners do not interact face-to-face with the teacher or trainer.
The e-Learning Industry Is Growing
e-Learning course sites like Udemy.com show that the eTraining industry is growing at a tremendous rate each year.
Udemy.com provides 30,000+ online courses covering all topics, from design and improving self esteem, to courses on building healthy relationships and improving your lifestyle, etc …
(Udemy.com provides over 30,000 e-courses covering all topics!)
The fact that the eLearning industry is growing is not only great for people looking to learn new things, but also for businesses that have valuable information that can help transform the lives of others.
eLearning – Opportunities & Drawbacks
The digital medium provides many useful technologies and a great environment for creating e-courses. e-Learning delivered via computers and increasingly mobile-based tools and technologies include Learning Management Systems (LMS), video tutorials, video-conferencing apps, audio training, reports, online forums, etc. There are, however, a number of drawbacks involved in planning e-learning courses.
Some of the drawbacks include:
- Figuring out the best way to deliver content,
- Employing popular tools and technologies that do not require spending extra time learning,
- Ensuring consistency across the content, course branding, etc.
- Measuring learning outcomes,
- Assessing student performance,
- Generating reports, certificates of completion
Additional factors include the lack of face-to-face interaction, potential lack of student motivation (e.g. boredom), distracting environments, etc.
eLearning – Unlimited Possibilities
If you are an internet marketer, creating ecourses that teach others new skills is a great way to grow a subscriber list or monetize your website. Creating products is, after all, one of the best ways to build a loyal customer base, as well as establish authority and credibility and position yourself as an industry or niche leader.
There’s a ton of opportunity. Almost every imaginable topic can be turned into an online training course.

(Got an interest or passion for fashion photography, landscaping or copywriting? Turn it into an elearning product!)
The problem is that creating PDF reports and training courses from scratch can take a lot of time. Chances are, however, you already have plenty of useful training content on your blog or website that can be leveraged into a new digital training product.
If your website is driven by WordPress and you would like to create and sell training products, there’s an inexpensive and powerful courseware solution you may want to consider using on your site.
