Thanks to the internet, thousands of entrepreneurial businesses and individuals are discovering new niches and opportunities to profit from in areas like online training and education.
Electronic learning (eLearning) is based on the concept of distance learning, where learners do not interact face-to-face with the teacher or trainer.
The e-Learning Industry Is Growing
Online training sites like Udemy are indicative of the growth of the e-Training industry.
Udemy provides over 30,000 e-courses covery every topic imaginable, from office productivity and personal skills, to creativity and hobbies, etc …
(Udemy.com provides 30,000+ online courses covering all topics!)
This is not only great for people looking to learn new things, but also for individuals that have something unique that can help transform the lives of others.
eCourses – Benefits And Challenges
Some of the challenges of developing online courses include:
- Figuring out methods of delivery,
- Using easy-to-use tools that course students can use intuitively to start learning,
- Ensuring consistency across the content, branding, etc.
- Measuring learning performance,
- Grading scores,
- Creating reports, certificates of completion
Additionally, you need to take into account important factors like lack of human contact, learner boredom, distractions that cause loss of focus, etc.
e-Learning – Unlimited Possibilities
If you are trying to grow your web presence, creating an ecourse that helps people acquire practical knowledge of useful areas is a great way to grow a subscriber list or monetize your website. Product creation is, after all, one of the best ways to attract customers, establish authority and credibility and position yourself as an industry or niche leader.
There’s a ton of opportunity. Almost every subject where there is strong interest and a demand to learn can be taught online.
(Got an interest or passion for fashion photography, horticulture or copywriting? Turn it into an online training product!)
The problem with product creation, however, is that creating PDF reports and training courses from scratch tends to be very time-consuming. If you have been marketing your business online for a while, however, you probably already have plenty of useful training content on your website or blog that can be leveraged into a new product.
If your website is built using WordPress and you would like to develop an online training course, there’s a cost-effective and professional WP solution that can help you.
