Designing and developing e-learning is full of challenges and opportunities. We want to create a Top 10 List of e-Learning Challenges. Can you help us complete this list?

We will get the team together and review all posts. We will select your top 5 e-learning challenges to complete the list below and post them in next week’s blog!

10. “*They need to know all of this*.” Clients requiring too much information that should be shared in an alternate modality – downloaded PDF, link to website, etc.

9.  Thinking that e-learning (or training in general) is the solution to every organizational hardship.

8. Losing sight of the goal while in the pursuit of perfection – never-ending revisions and delays to project schedule.

7. Having a senior manager (or high level stakeholder) review the course at the end of the project and requesting a large quantity of changes.

6. Late entrance of unexpected stakeholders who request additional content be added into the course.

5.
